    Tips to curve cravings

    • Brush your teeth or wash your hands. Psychologically, this can break the pattern of the habit, distracting you from that feeling of "want."

    • Substitute a water bottle, gum, candy, or toothpicks for tobacco. Oral fixation is a big part of the mental aspects of addiction.

    • Surround yourself with others who are committed to helping you quit. Support is the difference between failure and success.



    • Fill your "cigarette hand" with other objects
      like a pen or a pencil.

  • You have
    the power.

    Let us help you
    reach your goals.
