My name is Lee, and I want to share my story of finally kicking the habit of smoking. It started with a phone call from Claire at the Wakefield Stop Smoking service. A quit date was set for 9th March and with the help of patches and phone calls from Claire, I successfully quit.
Claire always phoned as arranged, as it’s those calls that kept me motivated to quit, along with my own willpower.
My energy levels have increased beyond belief in just 3 months of kicking the habit.
I attended a face-to-face appointment 3 times with Carrie to do a carbon monoxide breath test, and it was lovely to see a ‘non-smoker’ score reading each time, to maintain my motivation.
I cannot thank the service enough. Without you, I wouldn’t be a non-smoker, so thank you very, very much.
