The Canadian Cancer Society's Smokers' Helpline
is telephone based information and support service for smokers and the
people that care about them. Our
trained quit specialists can help you develop a structured “Quit
Plan”, answer your questions about quitting and refer you to services
in your community.
We all have our own reasons for smoking and we understand that no 2 people
are alike. People smoke for different reasons and now you have your own
reasons for wanting to quit. To better assess your individual needs we
may ask you a series of questions. Based on your answers, our quit specialists
will listen, and help you with approaches to quitting.
Get the information you need. If you have questions, we can help you with
answers. Talk to us about:
- withdrawal symptoms
- quitting methods
- how to deal with slips and relapses
- managing stress
- dealing with cravings
- asking for support
The Canadian Cancer Society – Nova Scotia Division is able to provide
the Smokers’ Helpline through funding by Health Canada’s Prevention,
Cessation and Education Fund which supports their Tobacco Control Program.
