Quitting tobacco is difficult but achievable! According to the American Cancer Society, success comes from utilizing two or more of the following: encouragement and support from friends and family members, telephone smoking-cessation hotlines, stop-smoking groups, online quit groups, counseling, nicotine replacement products, prescription medicine to lessen cravings, and guidebooks.
