Kicking the Habit for Good


For those Cal-State Long Beach students who want to quit smoking for good, there's good news. At the CSULB Health Services, The Alcohol Drugs and Other Drugs (ATOD) offer assistance in a program called "Quit Now."

In this program, students talk to a physician and together, estimate what the goals are. The program also offers students resources for quitting such as educational tools, a customized quitting plan, a free "quit smoking" 24-hour hotline, a fact sheet for smoking benefits, and more.

The program also insists that students visit the quit.net website. The website calculates how much moneya student spends on smoking, along with possible triggers that lead to smoking relapse.


Don't get the delirium smoker's cough like Bill Murray!

If you would like to quit smoking, contact the ATOD Program in room 268 of the Health Center, or call (562) 985-2520.
