How many cigarettes are you really smoking?

Quit Tobacco

At the Arizona Smokers’ Helpline we understand that there are various stages of readiness to quit. People move in and out of the stages over time. These three links can help guide you based on your current stage and can help you take the next step to maintaining a tobacco free life.

Thinking About Quitting

Maybe you’re not quite ready—maybe you’ve tried before and couldn’t quit smoking? That’s OK. Quitting smoking is hard. It takes practice, planning, and determination, but you can do it. The Thinking About Quitting link will take you to the Cost Calculator, which shows how much you are spending on cigarettes; a Cigarette Calculator, which shows how much you smoke; a survey to learn why you smoke; a survey on addiction and much more. You can also read about some common concerns of tobacco users contemplating a tobacco-free life.

Ready to Quit

Are you ready to quit? Tired of going outside to smoke? Tired of being an outcast? You’ve made the decision. You are ready. But now what? Set up a quit calendar and start practicing right now for your tobacco-free life.

Want to Stay Quit

Maybe you have already quit but are feeling nervous—afraid you might start smoking again. The Want to Stay Quit link takes you to information on coping and withdrawal. A Calorie Counter helps you control your weight while quitting, and you can plan your snacking with a personalized munchie shopping list. The Cost and Cigarette Calculators will show you how much money you're saving and how many cigarettes you didn’t smoke. Help is here to convince you to stick to your chosen path.
