...another chance to quit this Thursday as part of the American Cancer Society's 22nd annual Great American Smokeout. One in 4 smokers is expected at least to try kicking the habit. Nobody says it will be easy. A national survey made public last week by the Hazelden Foundation of Center City, Minn., found that it took former smokers, on average, at least 10 attempts over 18 years before they finally stopped for good. The No. 1 reason for quitting, cited by more than half of all ex-smokers: health concerns or an actual health problem, like suffering a heart...

...result, across the country facilities like Sierra Tucson have been forced to reinvent themselves. In 1994 the Hartford Institute of Living, in Connecticut, merged with Hartford Hospital to avoid extinction. The nonprofit giants, the Betty Ford Center in Rancho Mirage, California, and the Hazelden Foundation in Minnesota, have both increased the amount of financial aid they offer to needy patients. McLean Hospital in Belmont, Massachusets, a 185-year-old Harvard-affiliated facility, long ago famous as a haven for addled and addicted Brahmins, has seen its average patient stay drop from 57 days to 14 since 1989 and now fills...

There was a little magic and a lot of dedication in the way Beattie popularized the codependency theory. With a $500 advance from Hazelden Educational Materials, the publishing arm of the renowned Minnesota substance- abuse center, she went on welfare with her children Nichole, now 14, and Shane, now 11, for four months while she wrote Codependent No More. (Last year Beattie returned about $5,000 to the welfare department.) She recalls, "I kept thinking of Sylvester Stallone, penniless and writing Rocky because he believed in it."
