When a smoker is trying to quit, the presence of other smokers can be challenging. We can help you identify social situations where you are likely to be tempted to smoke, and lay out a game plan. We encourage you to make your home and car smoke-free so you can stay focused on your quitting goals. We find that it also helps to tell your friends and family that you’ve quit so they can be supportive of your efforts. You can also ask smokers you know to avoid smoking around you.  Avoid outdoor smoking areas outside of work or other places you often go.  Best of all, encourage others to join you in quitting smoking and make quitting a family affair so that all of your loved ones benefit from becoming smoke-free!
