Getting support
The support you get from friends, family and coworkers is one of the most important factors to your
success in stopping tobacco use and not starting again. The network of support you form will definitely
improve your chances of success.
Who can support you and how?
• Talk to your family, friends and coworkers. Tell them that you are planning to stop using
tobacco and you need their help. Ask them not to smoke around you and not to leave
cigarettes lying around.
• Talk to your family doctor about your plan to stop and ask for his/her help and advice.
• Ask close friends or family members if they are willing to be part of your special network
of support. They can be your sounding board when you need to talk to someone about your
good or bad day.
• Access telephone support such as the Smoker’s Helpline at 1-877-513-5333. This kind of
support can help you get through the difficult moments that are bound to arise when you try
to stop smoking and help you understand your stopping process.
