Welcome! You can ask a tobacco cessation counsellor anything you want to know about quitting tobacco, getting ready to quit, information on the addictive nature of nicotine, how nicotine interacts with other substances or anything else you need answers to.
Through the "Ask the Counsellor", you may learn about quitting tobacco and get some ideas on what might work for you.
Did you know that more than 80% of smokers want to quit and it takes an average of 7 quit attempts to be successful at quitting? Don't be discouraged if you have tried in the past and it didn't work. You are not alone and I can help you.
Please feel free to ask me any questions, and if you would like extra privacy, you can email me at tobaccofree@saskatoonhealthregion.ca.
Good luck and talk to you soon.
