Stopping smoking

"Stopping smoking"

About: Wellbeing Service / Borders quit your way / Stop Smoking Service

(as a service user),

Immersive Reader

I have used the smoking cessation service in Nhs Borders where I met my mentor face to face either once a week or every 2 weeks to discuss my progress. I have smoked for over 30 years and never thought I could give up but with the mentor's help and my determination I have succeeded and not had a cigarette for 12 weeks.  I really appreciate the help and support I was given through this service and the NHS.
