How FREED works

Practical support for quitting nicotine

FREED helps you plan for cravings, notice your progress and involve someone you trust. It supports your quit attempt; it does not replace medical care or proven stop-smoking treatment.

01Set your quit date

Enter when you last used nicotine so FREED can organise your timeline and progress around your own starting point.

02Prepare for cravings

Use a short guided breathing exercise and a simple action plan when a craving arrives. Stop the exercise if you feel dizzy or uncomfortable.

03Track recovery

See approximate milestones and log what you notice. Withdrawal and recovery vary by person, product and health history.

04Add support

Invite someone you trust to recognise milestones and help during difficult moments. Your journal and detailed craving entries stay private.

05Learn your patterns

Record triggers and responses over time so you can prepare for situations that make nicotine feel harder to resist.

What the evidence says

Withdrawal symptoms commonly peak during the first few days and often become less intense over the following weeks, but there is no universal timetable.

Behavioural support and approved quit-smoking treatments can improve a person’s chances of stopping. A pharmacist, doctor or local quit service can help you choose an approach.
