SMOKE-FREE ONTARIO: Quit - You Have It In You: How to help a friend quit
The decision to quit must be made by the smoker. But once the commitment is made, support from others is invaluable in the quit process. You can’t do it for them, but there are ways you can help.
- Let your friends know you’re concerned about their health but also assure them that you’ll be there for them whether they quit now or later.
- Let your friends choose their own quit date.
This has to be on their own time. - If your friends mention quitting, let them
know you believe they can do it. - Let your friends know that you have resources
for them when they are ready to quit.
