How do people quit smoking?
Quitting smoking is not easy, and some people try many times before succeeding. There are many ways to quit smoking. For example, some have been successful by stopping “cold turkey,” by taking part in the Great American Smokeout, or by using other methods. There’s no single best way to quit. Quitting for good may mean using many methods, including step-by-step manuals, self-help classes or counseling, toll-free telephone-based counseling programs, and/or using medicines like nicotine replacement therapies (see next question). Smokers may also need to make changes in their daily routine to help them break their smoking habits.
