Smokers' Help Line

You want to quit. We want to help.
AADAC's Smokers' Help Line is a free, confidential telephone service for smokers. Calls are answered by a trained counsellor who can help you develop an individual quit plan, offer information, or refer you to services available in your community. The Smokers' Help Line operates from 8 am to 8 pm. Outside of these hours, you will receive general support from AADAC Help Line staff. You can also arrange to have a tobacco counsellor call you back.

Counsellors can offer information about

• how to quit
• benefits of quitting
• withdrawal symptoms
• managing stress
• how to deal with relapses
• working through cravings
• seeking support

Whether you are ready to quit now, or just want some information, Smokers' Help Line counsellors offer non-judgmental information and support. Call if you

• want to quit
• are thinking about quitting
• have already quit and need support
• quit, but have started smoking again
• don't want to quit
• know you should quit, but aren't ready
• want to help someone else quit

Help Line hours are 8 am to 8 pm, seven days a week.
