Nosheen stopped smoking with the support of Yorkshire Smokefree in Wakefield. Here's her story, in her own words...
"I referred myself in to the Yorkshire Smokefree stop smoking service as I wanted to stop smoking and improve my health. I had tried to stop by myself on numerous occasions but had found it difficult. The service has been incredibly supportive and helpful throughout. The weekly phone calls I had with my advisor, Fazila, helped me to stay consistent and the advice she gave kept me motivated and focused on my end goal.
I also had monthly appointments at the stop smoking clinic in Wakefield where I had my carbon monoxide levels checked which helped keep me on track as it gave me a visual of how my health was improving over time. I have now seen improvements not just in regard to my health but in other areas of my life as a result of stopping smoking and I am incredibly grateful to Fazila and the team for all their help in reaching this point in my journey.
I am now smoke-free, healthier and happier as a result and would highly recommend contacting the service for anyone else who wants to make positive changes to their life, but who may be finding it hard to quit smoking".
Congratulations on your quit, Nosheen. You've done brilliantly!
