8. Tobacco Products Are Expensive

Many people use the excuse, “I would quit, but the patches and other medications I need are too expensive.” This is simply a cop out — you spend a lot more on tobacco products over the years than you would completing a smoking cessation program.

Most people don’t succeed on their first attempt to quit tobacco, but keep trying until you do. There are many therapies available, so find one or a combination of programs to suit you.

Medications, therapy, counseling and acupuncture are just a few of the many tools you have at your disposal. Most health insurance companies cover the cost of smoking cessation tools.

Check with the cancer society and health departments in your jurisdiction as well. Many health departments offer free or low-cost tools to help you end your addiction.
