Since 1965 over 30 million Americans have quit. There is help. Each person is different. Find what works best for you. Sometimes combining several methods is the answer.
Many people can stop on their own.
Others need help from doctors, clinics, or organized groups. The first step is to make a firm decision to quit. Then, choose a date to stop smoking, and pick one or more methods for quitting. Before you stop, try changing your smoking habits. For example, if you smoke a cigarette after each meal, wait a while at first.
