When You Can't Breathe, Nothing Else
MattersCongratulations! You want to quit smoking. Seven out of ten smokers do too! They feel they owe it to themselves, and those they love.
Have you had a hard time trying to quit - and stay quit - on your own? Now you canjoin the latest American Lung Association FREEDOM FROM SMOKING group program. You will get the kind of support and skills you need to quit smoking for good.
No two smokers are alike, so we begin the program by finding out how ready you are to quit smoking. Then we'll look at the people, places and things that trigger your urge to light up. Then we'll help you develop a quitting-plan that will work for you.
How Does It Work?
There are eight group sessions led by an expert who understands how hard it is for smokers to quit. This may sound like a lot of time. But research has proven that the more time a smoker spends in a supportive situation, the more likely he or she is to SUCCEED!
The program uses a positive behavior change approach that shows you how to become a nonsmoker, and even have fun with the group as you quit together.
After you quit, we'll give you plenty of help to stay off cigarettes forever. We'll talk about dealing with symptoms of recovery, controlling weight, managing stress, and resisting the urge to smoke when tough times come. We will give you an audiotape to help you learn how to relax after quitting.
For smokers - especially those who have tried to quit before - group support can make the difference in helping you stay smoke-free.
