Thinking About Stopping? Help is at Hand
Congratulations! Just clicking on this section means that you are already thinking seriously about stopping smoking. You've taken the first and biggest step. But what next? How do you actually go about stopping smoking? Don't worry here are a few pointers to help.
Seven out of every ten smokers want to stop, but they don't all want to stop in the same way. It is important that you decide on a method that is suitable for you.
Once you have done the ground work and decided you want to stop, you need to decide on a method of support. This support can include:
-
One-to-One support with yourself and a specialist advisor
-
Alternatively, support from your local pharmacy, your G.P or Practice Nurse
-
On line support from a programme such as the 'Together Programme' on 0800 1690169 or visit www.gosmokefree.co.uk
Any one of these forms of support will provide you with a tailored quit plan designed to help you stop smoking. Using your local Stop Smoking Service means you are four times more likely to succeed.
