Video By Dr. Willie T. Ong (Internist and Cardiologist)

Techniques To Stop Smoking:
1. Stop immediately. They call it Cold turkey, and the person just decides to stop right there and then.
2. Seek a lung doctor for help. The doctor may prescribe some medicines, which increases the success rate of quitting.

Tips To Stop Smoking:
1. Be prepared. Set your mind on a date when you decide to stop smoking.
2. Change your surroundings. Remove all cigarettes, lighters, ashtrays in your home and workplace.
3. Quit completely. Once you reach this quit date, don't think of smoking again.
4. Avoid situations (called triggers) that tempt you to smoke.
5. Seek support from family and friends. Tell them you have stopped smoking, so they will know how to deal with you.
6. Do new things and projects.
7. Drink 8-10 glasses of water a day. Take a sip or two of water when you start to feel the craving to smoke.
8. Get a regular exercise routine.
