I have never been a smoker, but probably like every other impressionable young teenager I’ve had a few puffs of a cigarette. Even though I tried it and a lot of people in my friends were smoking it’s not something that was really for me.
A large portion of the population in the UK are smokers and many are trying to stop smoking, with the desire to achieve a healthier lifestyle and well-being.
Quitting smoking can be a struggle, but there are a lot of useful aids out there now such a nicotine patches. The Ex-Smokers campaign is aimed at those who are trying to give up smoking but need a helping hand. The creators have produced an i-coach is a healthy coaching platform which is impressively available in 23 different language and it’s also free to use.
Have you used anything like this to help you quit smoking or to gain a healthier lifestyle?

I’ve never smoked and am so glad – quitting seems horrendous!
I have never even tried a cigarette- I just hate the smell of the smoke so much, and I have never been affected by peer pressure. When I was younger my uncle died of lung cancer (he was only in his mid 30’s) and that was really an awful time for the family. I think it is good that there are so many support systems for people who want to quit now, but it still surprises me that people take it up when the health risks are so clear now.
I totally agree. Everyone knows ho bad it is for you but still it doesn’t stop them.
