Quit Stories
Quitting smoking can be a difficult journey.
Smokers are told information from all sorts of places about what are the best ways or the worst ways to quit.
So how do smokers cut through the confusion and determine how to get to the "holy grail" of quitting for good?
The same approach doesn't work for everyone, so I have sourced some Australians who are willing to share how they quit smoking for good.
Sharing your stories is important to help policy makers know from grass roots level what is really happenning.
If you have a quit smoking experience you would care to share, please don't hesitate to send it to me along with your favourite pastime you now enjoy since quitting smoking.
These Are The Real Stories, Some Were Submitted To A Recent Federal Inquiry!
