MAKE A PLAN.
DOUBLE YOUR CHANCES OF QUITTING.

You can't rely on cold turkey alone! To successfully quit smoking or using other tobacco products, it is important to make a plan.

You can call the Washington State Tobacco Quit Line at 1-800-QUIT-NOW to speak with a quit coach, someone who can help you create a plan, provide one-on-one counseling and give helpful, easy-to-follow information.

Quitting is a process that takes practice, patience and support. While the Tobacco Quit Line can start you off on the path to a tobacco-free life, it is up to you to make sure you stay quit for good.

These easy-to-follow steps will help you develop your quit plan:

✓ Step 1: Make a decision

✓ Step 2: Prepare to quit

✓ Step 3: Your quit day

✓ Step 4: Deal with withdrawal

✓ Step 5: Maintain success

I’ve been through the quit process and I can relate to it. It’s rewarding to know I have an impact on people’s lives. Callers say, “Wow I didn’t think of that. That really helps!” and it’s nice to know I played a role in that. I just got off the phone with a guy who had been chewing and had successfully quit. He was so appreciative and just kept saying, “I couldn’t have done this without you!”
