Beatrice, age 40, is the mother of two boys and lives in New York. She tried her first cigarette at age 7 and began smoking regularly when she was 13. She had friends who smoked, and she wanted to be like them.
More than 25 years later, Beatrice still smoked. She was not a heavy smoker and had not been diagnosed with any smoking related health problems, but she wanted to quit. Her family also wanted her to quit. Although she had tried many times before, in 2010, Beatrice quit for good. She encourages anyone who wants to quit smoking to do it but to get help if they need it.
