It takes time to quit smoking.
Most smokers pass back and forth through five stages.
The Canadian Cancer Society s One Step at a Time program has materials for women and men who are in each stage. There are currently five stages in the One Step at a Time series. Each stage addresses the various steps in the quitting process. The information has been designed for you to go directly to the stage that suits you, and move on from there. Use this information however it is most helpful to you.
