You've been quit for a while, and you've likely started to enjoy the benefits. Congratulations!
How to embrace being smoke and vape free, and stay quit for good:
You know what your triggers are and how to avoid them.
You aren’t phased when you are out with mates who still smoke or vape.
You know that having a smoke or vape doesn’t have to lead back into full-time smoking or vaping. You have a strategy to get you back on track.
You’ve found new ways to manage stress.
You can comfortably say to people, "no thanks, I don't smoke/vape".
You’ve accepted you might still get cravings out of the blue. You know how to beat them.
You have an emergency plan – to call a friend or walk around the block – just in case.
You know Quitline is also there, just in case. Request a Quitline callback.
You know what your warning signs are and will get help if they start to build up.
You appreciate your body recovering and all the benefits that come with it.
You will reward yourself for what you have achieved. Use the money you’ve saved to spoil yourself with a holiday or some new clothes. Use the time you've won back to do more of the things you love, and spend more time with the people you love.
You’re officially free from smoking and/or vaping now!
