HOW TO QUIT SMOKING

Set a quit date. Decide on a day within the next two weeks in which you will stop smoking entirely. You may want to pick a day that has added significance, such as your birthday, wedding anniversary, or the first day of the New Year. If you smoke at work, you may want to consider quitting on the weekend, a vacation, or on a day off.
Remove all tobacco products, ashtrays, lighters and matches from your home, car and office. Having even one pack of cigarettes at your home will make it that much easier to start smoking again.
Notify friends and family that you plan on quitting. Warn them that you may be irritable or have mood swings for a week or two. Ask them to be patient and supportive during the process. If someone close to you smokes, ask that they refrain from smoking around you (or even better - suggest that they try quitting with you).
Talk to your doctor about your decision to quit smoking.[1] Find out if this may have any affects on the medications you are currently taking. You may also want to inquire about medications that may help you overcome the withdrawal symptoms of quitting smoking.

SURVIVING YOUR FIRST WEEK
Because most people who start smoking again do so relatively soon after quitting, the first week is crucial to your success. Unfortunately, due to the effects of nicotine withdrawal - and the fact that they haven't yet become accustomed to life without cigarettes - this is also the most difficult period for most people. But, for those that survive the first week without smoking, staying smoke free will get that much easier. Here are a few tips to help you get through the first week:

Because your mind and body have become accustomed to the physical act of smoking (holding the cigarette in your hand - putting it to your lips - taking a puff), it is often helpful to have a number of items to substitute in their place. Whenever you feel a craving come on, use one of these items to help with the physical cravings of wanting a cigarette:
Toothpicks
Lollipops
Carrot or Celery sticks
Sunflower seeds
Chewing Gum
Mints
Coffee Stirrers
