Nicotine Addiction Test

Find out how much you depend on nicotine


Knowing how addicted you are to nicotine can help you quit. It can help you
decide if you need extra help, such as medicine or support from a program.
Take this test to find out how hooked you are.
Check the item for every “yes” answer:

Do you usually smoke your first cigarette within a        
       half hour after you wake up?

Do you find it hard not to smoke where smoking
       isn’t allowed?;(At the library, movie theater, or doctor’s office?)

Do you smoke 10 or more cigarettes a day?

Do you smoke 25 or more cigarettes a day?

Do you smoke more during the morning than
       during the rest of the day?

Do you smoke even when you’re sick?

How many items did you select?

 

 

The more boxes you checked, the more addicted you are.
You’ll have to work hard to quit, even if you checked only one box or no boxes at all.
You may be very addicted to nicotine if you checked more than three boxes.
Medicine can help with withdrawal symptoms while your learning to live tobacco free.

Remember, no matter how hooked you are, you can stop smoking!
The key is staying strong and sticking with it.
