About Smoking Cessation
Smoking is very addictive- quitting is often hard, but is one of the most beneficial things you can do for your long term health and well-being. It is very common to have a few unsuccessful attempts, so it’s important to keep trying. A good plan and the right support makes quitting an achievable goal.
Quitting smoking is different for everyone- some people find it relatively easy, others find it more difficult. Withdrawal symptoms are common while quitting, as the body is no longer receiving nicotine (the addictive drug in tobacco).
