Choose a date within the next two weeks, so you have enough time to prepare without losing your motivation to quit. If you mainly smoke at work, quit on the weekend, so you have a few days to adjust to the change.
Let your friends and family in on your plan to quit smoking and tell them you need their support and encouragement to stop. Look for a quit buddy who wants to stop smoking as well. You can help each other get through the rough times.

Cigarette smoking is hazardous to your health and you know it but still you keep smoking. But once you decide to act on what you know that smoking is not good for u, your treament starts there only. Its your determination which is more important. And then we can treat you with medicines, counselling and behaviour therapy and if you follow it properly, succes rate is high!
