Self Help

When you are thinking about stopping, talk to an expert about what’s involved – e.g. helplines, NHS specialist centres, pharmacists or your GP. Find out whether one of the proven pharmaceutical treatments like NRT or Zyban would be right for you – they can double your chance of success, and are both available on NHS prescription. Get your friends and family involved as they can give you moral support. Then pick a day – like No Smoking Day – and stick to it.  See: www.nosmokingday.org.uk for more details.
