   Why Quit?


 

Here are some examples of reasons to quit:

  • I will feel healthier right away. I will have more energy and better focus. My senses of smell and taste will be better. I will have whiter teeth and fresher breath. I will cough less and breathe better.
     
  • I will be healthier the rest of my life. I will lower my risk for cancer, heart attacks, strokes, early death, cataracts, and skin wrinkling.
     
  • I will make my partner, friends, family, kids, grandchildren, and co-workers proud of me.
     
  • I will be proud of myself. I will feel more in control of my life. I will be a better role model for others.
     
  • I will no longer expose others to my second-hand smoke.
     
  • I will have a healthier baby. (If you're pregnant)
     
  • I will have more money to spend.
     
  • I won't have to worry: "When will I get to smoke next?" or "What do I do when I'm in a smoke-free place?"
