The recent tax increase on tobacco products is causing many people to scramble for their phones in a rush to seek help in quitting.  According to USA Today, there has been a tidal wave of calls flooding tobacco quit lines since Wednesday, April 1st, the day the increase took effect.  Free & Clear’s 17 state quit lines alone were up 369% from the same day in 2008.  This poses the question: How can a hotline help me quit?

Well, we are not just a hotline. We will not just give you some information, slap a patch on you and send you on your way. We are staffed with highly skilled and well-trained tobacco treatment specialists who understand that quitting takes mental, emotional and physical preparation. Our Quit Coaches are here to help you quit and stay quit by helping you create a personalized plan that fits your lifestyle.

People want to quit for many reasons (recent tax increase included) and we know how important it is to have a solid plan when fighting tobacco addiction.  Once we have a better idea about what your needs are, we can help you make a plan to overcome the potential barriers to your success: the behaviors, emotions and physical cravings that seem to beat people down in their attempts to quit.

When you are ready, give us a call; we are here for you.  No pressure, no assembly line routine…Just an open ear, the desire to help you reach your goals…and to help you save some cash, too!
