Smokers may have started smoking because their friends did or because it seemed cool. But they keep on smoking because they became addicted to nicotine, one of the chemicals in cigarettes . Many people don’t quit smoking because they think it’s too hard . It’s true , for most people quitting isn’t easy . After all , the nicotine in cigarettes is a powerfully addictive drug . But with the following approaches , you can overcome（战胜）it .

Put it in writing . People who want to make a change often are more successful when they put it in writing. So write down all the reasons why you want to quit smoking, such as the money you will save or the strength you'll gain for playing sports. Keep that list where you can see it, and add to it as you think of new reasons.

         . People whose friends and family help them quit are much more likely to succeed. If you don’t want to tell your parents or family that you smoke, make sure your friends know, and consider confiding in a counselor or other adult you trust. And if you’re having a hard time finding people to support you (if, say, all your friends smoke and none of them is interested in quitting), you might consider joining a support group, either in person or online.

Throw away your cigarettes . People can’t stop smoking with cigarettes still around them . Even throw away the cigarettes you have stashed in the secret pocket of your backpack . Get rid of your ashtrays（烟灰缸）and lighters（打火机）, too .

Wash all your clothes . Get rid of the smell of cigarettes as much as you can by washing all your clothes and having your coats or sweaters dry-cleaned . If you smoked in your car , clean that out , too .

Reward yourself . As you already know , quitting smoking isn’t easy . Give yourself a well-deserved（当之无愧的）reward ! Set aside the money you usually spend on cigarettes . When you’ve stayed away from tobacco for a week , 2 weeks , or a month , buy yourself a treat like a new CD , a book , or some clothes . And every smoke-free year , celebrate again . You earned it .
