Start with a plan you can keep
You do not have to solve the whole future today. A small, clear plan means fewer decisions in a pressured moment.
Choose one product or quitting path to begin with and give it a clear name in the app.
Write one personal reason for quitting: health, freedom, money, family, or more control over a habit.
Choose a practical start time. If you began before signing up, update the date and time so your journey reflects you accurately.
Identify two situations that usually bring up an urge and prepare one short alternative action for each.
When a craving arrives
A craving can feel urgent, but it is not an instruction. Try to create a short space between the feeling and the action.
Pause and change your setting: stand up, step outside without a smoking product, wash your face, or walk a few steps.
Delay the decision for ten minutes. During that time, drink water, breathe slowly, or give your hands a simple task.
Name what is happening: hunger, stress, boredom, anger, a coffee routine, or a wish to connect with others.
Contact a trusted person or write in the check-in or journal area about what feels difficult right now. Ask for support, not judgment.
A gentle plan for a lapse
A lapse does not erase your progress. You can stop the sequence, understand what happened, and return to the plan with the next step.
Stop when you notice the lapse. You do not need to wait for a new day or a ‘perfect’ decision.
Record what happened in the app: when, where, with whom, how much you used, and how you felt before and after.
Choose one protective action for the next few hours: move smoking products away, avoid a trigger, or ask a friend to stay connected.
Read the tip saved with the lapse and return to your path. Use the information to improve the plan, not to punish yourself.
When professional support may help
You do not need to wait for a ‘bad enough’ moment to ask for help. Professional support can be a normal, smart part of quitting.
Consider speaking with a doctor, health provider, or cessation service if you have tried to quit several times and the difficulty keeps returning.
Seek professional advice if withdrawal symptoms or mood changes significantly disrupt sleep, school, work, or daily life.
If the concern involves substances other than nicotine, or you have questions about medicines, pregnancy, a medical condition, or mental health, get individual advice from a qualified professional.
For immediate danger or severe distress, do not rely on this website: contact emergency services or an appropriate local service now.
