Trying again?
Just because you've tried to go smokefree before and haven't succeeded, does not mean you can't do it. The truth is that most people take multiple attempts before they succeed in going smokefree. You can do it!
"The thought of stopping is actually much worse than stopping itself. Give it a try, then try again and again - learn from each experience" - Michelle, Halifax
Your Edge
Previous Experience:
You have the advantage of being able to use your previous experience:
- avoid the situations that caused you to go back smoking
- you know what triggered you e.g. stress, routine etc
- try a different method of support or nicotine replacement
With this knowledge and a fresh resolve, you can make this time the last time you stop.
Fresh Resolve:
If you`re ready to have another quit attempt think about why you stopped smoking the last time you tried:
- Were you concerned about your health?
- Did you want to be free from the smell of smoke?
- Perhaps it was the extra cash in your wallet?
- Or the thought of your kids health?
Whatever your reason, it`s still as valid as ever. You can find all the tools you need to successfully become smokefree on this website. Check out the boxes on the right hand side and take the next step.
