Quitting is hard. Doing it alone is harder.
Most quit attempts fail not from lack of willpower but from lack of support in the moment a craving hits. BreatheWell is built around exactly that moment — structured, evidence-based, and there when you need it, without judgement if a lapse happens along the way.
How BreatheWell works
A real dependence assessment, a structured weekly programme, and a GP review whenever it's actually needed.
Assessment
A validated dependence score (the Fagerström Test) and a quit-date plan — plus a check for anything that means this needs to be GP-led from day one.
Structured programme
An NCSCT-aligned weekly curriculum — craving/urge management, trigger planning, relapse prevention — not open-ended chat.
Support in the moment
Bounded check-ins between modules, there when a craving or a lapse happens — never medicine names, never doses, never crisis counselling by the AI.
A GP review when it matters
Certain medication interactions and higher-dependence profiles are routed straight to a GP — never guessed at, never left to chance.
The one check that matters most, explained plainly
Stopping smoking changes how your body processes some psychiatric medicines — including clozapine and olanzapine. BreatheWell checks for this before anything else.
What BreatheWell will do
- Check for a real medication interaction before you self-serve
- Route pregnancy straight to a GP-led pathway, not self-serve
- Screen for low mood at every check-in and escalate immediately if needed
- Suggest combination therapy under a GP for heavier, harder-to-shift dependence
What it won't do
- Name a specific NRT product, brand, or dose
- Continue a self-serve programme once a risk signal is flagged
- Attempt to counsel a crisis itself — it always hands over to a person
