Get help: The person has to want to quit themself for it to work. It can be a tremendously hard thing to do, but a fantastic thing for their overall health and the health of your family. Ask their primary doctor for help, use the website http://smokefree.Gov/ or call 1-800-quit-now. Avoid hanging around with people who smoke as they will make it hard for them to maintain their willpower. Good luck!

Quit contract.: Smokers are very good at fooling themselves into smoking again. With a quit contract, the smoker has to answer to you, or to a group of friends, or to a group of people who are also trying to quit. Answering to others for one's indiscretions is difficult, and can help the quitter in his/her attempt.

Stopping: Smoking is difficult like most habits. If some one is motivated to quit and ready to act, counseling, and if indicated nicotine replacement or medications could be an aid
