It's getting on everyone's nerves and it just comes out of my mouth without me knowing. How can I stop it? I'm getting in trouble at school for it too. I need to stop.

Well, first of all try talking to your parents and get them to help you. What I would do is to have a jar or something where I have to put in a quarter everytime that you say a curse word. If they catch you- you have to put a quarter in each and every time.
My daughter was Mormon for a while and she used to get after me for my cursing. She said instead of saying things like it sucks - say "it inhales deeply". Sometimes you need to come up with creative ways to say something. Like instead of "Son of a B*tch" say something like - "Son of a biscuit eater". Or something like "Go fly a kite" or "go turn purple". Just use your imagination.
Hopefully, these suggestions will help.
You might have someone tape you and see what you look like and sound like to other people.
Good luck and just keep on trying. Cussing is like drinking or smoking - you must want to quit in order to quit.

that's a great mess, this is all i'm able to assert. first of all, i do no longer why you 2 married after having this form of violent courting (New twelve months's Eve 2009). you ought to have found out what you have been going to handle at that ingredient - so each little thing that has happened considering that must be of no marvel to you. on no account as quickly as did you point out something approximately her character, integrity, character. each little thing you point out deals with drugs, alcohol, melancholy and bisexuality. Oh, and the reality she is style perfect. So, i might say that's risk-free to anticipate which you married this lady for each and all of the incorrect motives. i'm a non secular guy or woman and can advise the two one in each of you initiate residing a greater non secular existence and attempt to salvage your marriage. this is properly worth it in case you like one yet another and comprehend you have made a mistake yet are prepared to repair it. God bless the two one in each of you.

I'm in the same boat. I have made my New Year's resolution to stop cussing. The only way I see to dsucceed at stopping is to have my friends and family police me and let me know everytime I do. I have been doing it so long that it's almost like 2nd nature. I hope it works.

Have your friends stomp on your foot everytime you cuss or something...that can be a hard habit to stop, I had a friend who had a hard time with that. REALLY think about what you say before it leaves your mouth.

I don't know what'll work for you, but, I used to imagine my Grandmother hearing every bad word that I said. She was a minister once, and for some reason, the only person whose approval I ever gave a d%@n about.

I use to swear a lot, but after my kids started saying the swear words themselves, I stopped. It was not easy, but now I don't swear anymore.

I have a dirty mouth as well but I make a conscious effort to keep it in check, there's a time and a place.

Pretend your very strict grandmother is with you all the time and you don't want to make Grandma upset!
