Merry Speicher

“The Tobacco Treatment Program at Upstate taught me how to breathe without a cigarette in my mouth.”

- Merry 

Through Theresa’s coaching and patience, Merry learned how to cope with stressors and breathe through urges to smoke, talk herself out of smoking, cope in social situations without a cigarette, walk away from a setting that could potentially trigger her to smoke, and, most importantly, learned that you’re not a failure if you slip up.
