QUIT SMOKING OPTIONS
About 10 years ago, my husband decided to quit smoking. As most spouses probably do, he encouraged me to do the same. He tried Nicorette gum and had success with that. I tried the Nicotine patch and was able to be completely Nicotine free within three months. Both of us were able to quit and stayed smoke free for two years. Unfortunately, like most people, we went out for drinks with friends who were smokers, took a puff and were back to smoking a pack a day again.
I think for me, the real deciding factor was that I was not ready to quit when I did. I was not quitting because I wanted to, I was quitting because someone else wanted me to and that never works. So, if you have decided that you want to quit, and you really have your heart set on it, it can be done.
Below, are listed some of the most common ways people have been able to quit smoking, as well as links that will take you to more information on them:
