Quitting takes practice.
It took awhile for you to become addicted to tobacco. It can take awhile to quit as well. It’s hard to do it on your own — and research shows that people are more successful at quitting when they have help. Help takes many forms. One-to-one counseling, nicotine patches, and medication can all help you quit tobacco.
Not everyone smokes for the same reason. Not everyone can quit the same way.
Silverton Hospital offers a number of resources to help you quit smoking. Talk to your doctor about the listed resources to learn which may be the best approach for you. Or, you can call us at (503)873-1500 to learn more about our programs.
Wellspring Integrative Medicine
At Wellspring, we know that it’s not as easy as “just quitting.” Smoking addiction is a serious medical condition that requires individual treatment. Meet with our doctor to determine an active treatment plan that is right for you.
