Joel Spitzer

Tuesday, December 16, 2003 • 7:00 P.M. to 9:00 P.M.

Skokie Health Department

We will show you how to overcome the withdrawal
and then be able to stay off in one “Easy Lesson.”*

Topics to be covered include:

Why You Smoke

Why You Should Quit

How to Break the Nicotine Addiction

How to Stay Nicotine Free for the Rest of Your Life

*Attending the lesson will be easy. Quitting smoking, on the other hand, may be easy or may be difficult. It is impossible to predict what quitting will be like for any individual. While it may be harder for some smokers to stop than for others, it is possible for all. Cigarette smoking is a powerful form of nicotine addiction. If you treat nicotine addiction like any other drug addiction, you will control it. If you treat it like a bad habit, you will ultimately fail. Our program will teach you about addiction and how to treat it. Follow our advice and in two weeks you will be rid of nicotine and then be free to choose whether or not you wish to remain permanently off all nicotine products.
