Best Way To Stop Smoking - By Dr. Ralph.Q: What's the best way to quit smoking?

A: As an ex-smoker, I consider myself an expert on this topic. In fact, I quit several times! The last time was five years ago this past Thanksgiving. I'm not cocky enough to say that it is my last time, although I sure hope it is. I know myself well enough to know that I can never have one cigarette again without planning on starting a pack a day habit. Some people can handle an occasional cigarette. The huge addiction problem to nicotine is a testament to the fact that many people are, like me, prone to addiction.

I don't know that you would reach a consensus on any one best method for quitting, but I can tell you what worked for me and some of my patients. It's a process that takes a while, but one doesn't learn how to be a smoker the first time you puff on a cigarette.

 

Quitting on Impulse May Be Smokers' Best Bet

Best Way To Stop Smoking: Smokers are often told the best way to nix their habit is to have a game plan, including a quit day and a quit strategy. But could that advice be counterproductive? In a recent study putting that question to the test, smokers who quit spontaneously - without advance planning - had a greater chance of succeeding than those who planned ahead. The results, published in the British Medical Journal, seem to flout traditional smoking-cessation guidance.

Dr. Michael Siegel, a professor of social and behavioral sciences at Boston University who examines tobacco control policies and smoking behavior, said the findings make a lot of sense.

"Planned quit attempts are implemented gradually and thus the level of motivation is probably rather low," he said.
