Brief Summary: Randomized, open label, prospective study with a 12-month follow-up period. The primary objective evaluates the effectiveness of an intensive anti-smoking programme that informs patients of their individual risk of lung damages and the possibilities of prevention. The main measurement will be having given up smoking in month 12, measurement of self-reported abstinence on the 7 previous days and confirmed by a CO-oximeter test\< 10 ppm, between the intervention and control group. A total of 9 urban and rural mental health centres will participate in the study. The intervention group will undergo spirometry and presence and the degree of respiratory obstruction will be assessed. Participants will be given individual information to generate a motivational message about the possibilities of prevention and the information will be maintained for three months by sending text messages (SMS) to their mobile phones. The efficacy of the method and the pulmonary damage variables will be evaluated: smoking cessation at the end of follow-up will be confirmed by cooximetry, and the COPD diagnosis and the severity of the staging for disease will be assessed
