How can i help my bf stop smoking ? -
i wanna help him as much as i can so any ideas?IF HE LOVES YOU AND WANTS TO CONTINUE TO BE WITH YOU AND KNOWS THAT IT BOTHERS YOU HE-LL STOP EVENTUALLY.
DOES HE EVEN TRY TO NOT SMOKE AROUND YOU?every time he gets out a cigarette take it from his hands and either throw it away or put it somewhere where he cant get access to easily(purse,pocket). this may seem weird but smell him sometimes and ask him if he has been smoking and then if he says no then say that you can smell it and its bothering you. if he says yes than tell him to stop smoking.Be supportive and encouraging. Don-t get upset if he slips up. Buy him some sugarless gum and candy. Reward him after periods of time without smoking. Most of all, put up with his moodiness! :)what you do is ignore it but kinda ignore him when hes smoking arround you... he-ll eventually stop smoking arround uGive him something else to put in his mouth ;-)How can i help my bf stop smoking ? -

I want to quit smoking!!!!!!!!!? -
I have been smoking for 14 years and I am sick of it. I have a family now and I want to live a long life so my childrens children have grandparents. I have tryed everything to stop smoking, someone please help me! What have you done to quit???I was a 2 pack a day smoker from the time I was 12 and my doctor told me that if I didnt stop that it was going to be bad because of my family history. I tryed niccorete, I tryed to drink through a straw , I really tryed everything. The only thing that really worked was this patch http://quitsmoking.freesitehoster.com .
I was on it for 3 weeks and it really curbed my cravings. The bottom line is it is just going to take time once you get off ciggies. The craving probably will never go away but I am telling you this patch sure did help. Hope that this is helpful and good luck.stick with the gum and patch do it it works and dont do such stress related stuff ocupy yourself at work coffe also makes ppl want to smoke b/c ppl always have a smoke with a cup o joe...good luck do it for yourself to so you dont die of horrable lung canswerMy dad smoked for 35 years...he tried the gum, the patch, all that stuff...but it didn-t work for him. Then one day he went to the hospital--he couldn-t breathe and he was so hot and lightheaded that he thought he might be having a heart attack. It turns out that the cigarettes had completely decimated his immune system, and the doctor told him that if he smoked any more he-d be dead in a week. Seriously, a cold would have killed him at that point, he had no antibodies to fight it. He-s been clean for 10 months now.
I guess all you really need is motivation. (and having something to put in your mouth...a sucker, a straw, anything your lips can wrap around...can help) You can-t do it for your wife or your kids (as much as you may want to). You have to do it for you, or it won-t stick, and in your cravings you might even grow to resent them for -making- you stop smoking.
Good luck! Hope this helps!
EDIT: My dad says the reason the patches and gum didn-t work is because you-re still getting the nicotine, so you-re carrying on the addiction, just without the extra toxins and the relaxing hand motions you-re used to.
And about the candy...make sure to have some in your cigarette pocket...that way you have something to grab ahold of when you reach for a cigarette.14 years... i think enough damage has been done to your lungs.... anyways...
get pills, nicotine patches, gums, even has a nico water... course youll feel crazy and go crazy like you cant do it... but u can...

they have numbers there for out of california states tooI gave up smoking 6yrs ago after smoking for 12yrs and I believe you really have to be mentally ready to give up.
I gave up cold turkey but I was also unwell at the time and wasn-t able to smoke as it made the condition worse so that might have helped.
I know a woman who gave up in November last year by using the Gum and she-s still on the gum but not smoking.
When you are ready, you WILL be able to do it!go cold turkey,We all know that - If there is a will then there must be a way-. You said you-ve smoked for 14 yrs so it might be hard to get rid of it. But the best way to get rid of it is get a hobby. Get something to do. This will keep your mind from thinkin about smokin. Thats all i hope this helps.Torne away all cigeretes you have before going to bed and do not forget brush your teeth and forgive smoking from right morning of the very next day and have some gum.have u tried nicotine i heard it really worksTry calling you state smokers quit line.....l Tried 1-866-NY-QUITS and I got free gum and patches...im proud of ya taking charge.....my boyfriend would shove a ton of tooth paste in his mouth to curb the craving.........i guess try that.......think of how much better you will fell once you quit!Hi there! I am an RN and come from a family of smokers. I, myself have chosen never to smoke, but I have seen firsthand the troubles it can cause, both from a loved ones standpoint as well as from a medical standpoint.
The decision to quit is a brave one, and I am proud of you. There are many things that can help you quit smoking. Nicotine is a drug, and an addiction, but the battle can be fought and won if you really decide to stick to it.
The nicotine patches are available in three doses to help you step down gradually. You can also use nicotine gum, or lozenges, but they are more expensive and some people don-t like the taste. You can also ask your doctor for oral medication such as zyban which really seems to help fight the cravings.
My best advice is to use one of the methods above, if they appeal to you. Add to that picking up a hobby, some kind of craft, golf, something to keep your hands busy that you enjoy. I really like to scrapbook, and I saw you have kids. Something like that can really pay off on many levels.
I have also know people who have gone to a hypnotist to quit smoking. The good ones will not only treat you in office, but will send you home with tapes or CD-s to listen to when you get in a tough spot. It really helped my Dad. He smoked for 40 years, and he works for Phillip Morris! Talk about pressure.
At any rate, good luck to you on you new adventure. I applaud your effort. Your body will thank you, and your kids will also. You are showing them that things that are hard to do are not unachievable. God bless!From what my Dr. told me, you need to take Chantix (a drug that turns off the feel good info. to your brain) along with Welbutrin. It is helping my daughter. Ask your Doctor about it.I quit smoking also...let me tell you this....You need to make a list of reasons why you want to quit...after that tomorrow when you wake up you say im nicotine free today..my family, my children, my friends are more important than smoking...then drop it....I watched my grandfather die a slow painfull death begging for morphine for the pain...do you want to put your children through that??
Smoking is a choice that YOU make...currently you are choosing a cigaret over your childs.Well, I never smoked, but as a nurse I took care of lots of people who smoked.
Maybe you-d like to put a picture of someone with emphysema nearby so you can look at it everytime you get the urge. That helped some of my patients.
Think about how much fun it would be to kiss an ashtray too.see your doctor there are many medications to help stop smoking like wellbutrin and chantix a new medication.I want to quit smoking!!!!!!!!!? -
How can I get rid of the cigarettte smell in my appartment? -
How can I get rid of the cigarettte smell in my appartment? -
I have stopped smoking and can still smell the tocacco when I come in. Have tried all sorts of things. Any ideas?That is the problem with cigarette smoke...the smells gets everywhere and then stays.
First off, make sure you have all the windows and doors wide open as much as you can. Turn on portable fans and ceiling fans. You will need to literally clean everything. Everything holds that smell: carpet, walls, fabric, books, everything. Wash everything at least once. You may have to scrub things multiple times to get rid of the smell.
Not only will smoking expose everything in your apartment to the smell, it will also cover the apartment with a yellowish film of tar. You will be amazed at how much whiter the walls are, or even how much cleaner the windows are after you wash the tar off of them.
One more important point....make sure to scrub down the ceilings as well. This area is usually overlooked, but remember that smoke floats up. Most of the smoke, the tar, and the smell ends up on the ceiling.
Even after scrubbing everything, the smell will still be there, especially in the heating and cooling systems. But eventually, the smell will go away, even though it may take a while. You may walk in months later and still smell remnants of tobacco. All you can do is ventilate the apartment the best you can and wait. And whatever you do, do not let anyone else smoke inside, or you-ll be back to square one.Cigarette smoke infiltrates EVERYTHING.
Wash the walls with some sort of paint-safe cleanser, shampoo the carpets, get the furniture cleaned, dust EVERYthing, clean windows, wash curtains, blinds, bedding, pillows, ALL clothes, towels, etc. etc.
Pretty much everything in your house needs to be washed to get rid of the smell as quickly and thoroughly as possible.hmm wat about febreeze or something that takes the order away instead of covering it up
nd maybe clean the dust nd stuff off
cuz cigarette smoke piles up nd stuff so yeah nd maybe wash the some of the material too
maybe it will get rid of it
try baking soda maybe
idk hope i helped thoughThe smoke is in your curtains,carpet,bedding,ect.
Try febreeze and use it daily...it will take some time but it-s the best thing I-ve used for smoke.
Also-Scrub your walls down.Wash basically everything...smoke gets everywhere.get one of those hepa filters, they get rid of mildew, mold , dust dander, smoke. you tryed that it works for me very wellTry using scented candles for a week.try adding some charcoal around..they are good absorbers of tar n nicotine..How can I get rid of the cigarettte smell in my appartment? -
I am 20 and smoke 3 cigarretes a day while taking Yaz. Is it safe for me to continue or should I stop smoking? -
I am 20 and smoke 3 cigarretes a day while taking Yaz. Is it safe for me to continue or should I stop smoking? -
There are complications with the pill and smoking - it-s just not safe. Besides, if you are only smoking 3 cigarettes a day, it should not be that hard to quit.
Think of how much better you will smell. :)If I was only smoking 3 cigs a day, I-d give it up. Why not do it now! I smoked very little at your age and believe me...it escalates over the years.I cured myself and I bet you can cure yourself too from this bad habit with this product I found out:
http://www.helpmequitsmoking.net
Stop smoking now before you get -addicted-. The longer you smoke the more cigarettes you will smoke.
I used a different birth control pill when I was 25 and suffered a major stroke. You don-t want that hun. GL. I was a smoker as well.STOP smoking!Yes, you should stop. If you only smoke 3 cigs/day, it-s not worth the money you spend on a pack. In addition, smoking and taking bc pills is dangerous. There are some serious side effects that your doctor can explain to you or you may be able to find them online.I am 20 and smoke 3 cigarretes a day while taking Yaz.

Whats the most eficiant way to stop smoking sigarrets? -
Whats the most eficiant way to stop smoking sigarrets? -
i smoke in the evenings whith a -friendly- drink...Put them in the rubbish bin instead of your mouth. I did, and it works !-I quit 10 years ago and what helped me in the first few weeks was that I reminded myself that I was always one cigarette away from being a smoker again.well if its only with a drink you dont really have a problem but if you want to stop when you feel like you need a cig eat something to take your mind off itlearning how to spell first!I-ll let you know if you can tell me what sigarrets are!Oh Dear Im a smoker and i have tried and tried, but ill keep trying. Best of Luck
PS Spell Check helpssunflower seedsBecause it-s a habit for you and , as we all know it-s an addiction that erodes the will ....the most effective way to stop is for someone to completely stop you from buying any more. Just until you-ve regained some of your self control back :P
And if that doesnt work you can always cut your hands offI-m taking the new drug chantix. It has really worked for me. I have not smoked for over two months. I don-t even care to have one. Hope it works for you if you decide to try it......Most insurance will pay for it....It takes a lot of balls
by mother has been smoking since she was 13yrs old and she decided not to smoke and she didn-t use any of that gum or anything just faith that God would help her. She gain weight though. She-s 56yrs old and it has been 1yr since she stopped.Normally, I would suggest the gum for nicotine addiction. But since you only smoke at night with a drink, the other/above suggestions seem quite reasonable.
And, since English seems to be your tertiary language, I will give you some slack.Quit your job and give all your friends a wide berth and when you have no money or friends then you will stop smoking. An easier way is go to doctor and ask for patches and gum, the rest is up to how strong is your will powerConsult packaging for proper spelling ;)hypnosisEvery time you take a drag say to yourself : This will kill me. Think about it every single drag and you will have the willpower to quit. Good luck it ain-t easy.Only a 9 year old could spell this badly! I suggest you tell mum not to buy you any more.That would be CIGARETTES
I quit in January cold turkey. It does take will power and you have to be ready to quit. I will never smoke another one - everdon-t buy don-t ask cold turkey for 2-4 weeks after you quit don-t start again you will come back to the same cycle addiction again quit and don-t touch it ever.Zyban is effective .I was doing great until I stopped taking it. If you only smoke in the evening,I wouldn-t worry about it.You could easily quit cold turkey if you wanted to.Wun whey wuld tu always try to buy -sigaretts.-
You wuld phined they don-t exist and the problem would be solved.Remove the justification for smoking from your life.
They are all excuses!...Smoking is great!!!...I know that....but it is pointless!!!!!cold turkey.........im on my 7th weekWhats the most eficiant way to stop smoking sigarrets? -
How do u get a friend to stop smoking? -
How do u get a friend to stop smoking? -
I quit 2 months ago and I did it cold turkey. I have to tell you, tho, that I don-t think you can get someone to quit if they don-t want to! I know people bugged me for years about my smoking--family, bf-s, friends, co-workers, etc-- but I didn-t listen to any of them. Finally one day I decided on my own that I wanted to quit and I did!If you don-t really like your friend, tell him / her to switch from cigarettes to meth, will be done for good in a year. If you care for you friend, leave him / her alone to live their life anyway they want, those who want to change their friends to fit themselves aren-t real friends.
Be a real friend and stop trying to change your friend to fit your ways, friends are there for you no matter what, be there for them.you DON-T, It is a freedom that most smokers will not give up.
It has to be their choice to quit. For someone to pressure them just intensifies the urge to smoke, plus it makes them rebel. Trust I know, have been a smoker for 30 years. And it really pisses me off, when people tell me what I have to do.You can-t unless they really want to. Take them to see someone with lung cancer and let them explain what they have been or going through.give them an electronic cigarette and tell them to stop smoking and start vaporizing
