Quitting smoking
Quitting can take more than one attempt. A useful plan considers cravings, triggers and the support available to you.
What we can discuss
- Smoking patterns and triggers
- Cravings and withdrawal
- Previous quit attempts
- Support and a follow-up plan
A useful care conversation
Describe how much you smoke, when cravings are strongest and what helped or got in the way before. A clinician can help you compare behavioral support and suitable treatment options, then plan how to handle difficult moments and follow up.
When to seek more care
- Ask for additional support if withdrawal or mood symptoms are difficult to manage; a previous unsuccessful attempt is a reason to adapt the plan.
