Health Tip: When You Want to Quit Smoking
By LadyLively on December 6, 2013

Quitting smoking is tough, but relying on friends and family can help you get through the challenges.
The American Cancer Society offers this advice:
- Let friends and family know that you’re trying to quit.
- Socialize with those who support you in quitting, preferably those who don’t smoke or who are ex-smokers.
- Explain what you need from loved ones, whether it’s being patient, being available for phone calls or adhering to smoke-free environments.
- Develop a good understanding of how each loved one can help you quit.
