Plan Your Quit Day
Smokers often say, "Don't tell me why to quit, tell me how." There is no one right way to quit, but there are some key elements in quitting smoking successfully. These 4 steps are crucial:

  1. Make the decision to quit.
  2. Set a quit date, and choose a quit plan.
  3. Manage withdrawal.
  4. Stay quit (maintain success).
