Quitting tobacco is hard. Research shows that the better prepared you are, the more successful you’ll be. A quit plan helps you map out when you’ll quit, who will support you, what challenges you may face and how you’ll meet them. When you do have setbacks, a plan prepares you for them. Your plan will help you stay on your path to being tobacco free.
