Does the patch and the gum help to stop smoking? is there any other alternatives? -
my sister and her boyfriend plan to try and quit smoking, they-ve tried cold turkey once but it didnt quite work out, and i-ve heard that the gum and the patch doesn-t work and i really wat to help them quit. is there anything that can help them quit???Buy Allen Carr-s book -The Easy Way For Women To Stop Smoking-. It gives you lots of other alternatives and is a very renowned book and author. For her boyfriend Allen Carr also has -The Easy Way To Stop Smoking.-tell them to go see there doctor my doctor prescribed me medication and it worked for me.The patch works well as far as the craving goes. But does not substitute for the hand/mouth issue. The gum is just plain gross, even us smokers do not want to chew on a cigarette!
I have heard of a few people trying Zyban, and they say it works well. I would at least give that a try.I would tell them to check out this website: www.mytimetoquit.com on that website there is a new smoking cessation medicine called Chantix. Tell them to check out that site it is so informative not just on smoking but methods of how to quit and about the medication I mention. Good lucktry commit lozenges..they are working for me..tried both the patch and gum with no luckthere is a brand new pill out from phisor called chantex. it tricks the receptors in the brain to think they already have enough nicotine. im not a doctor so not sure how it works. I can tell you that ive been on it for 3 weeks and have not smoked. longest ive ever gone in my 30 years of trying to quit so they must work. also on a side note, one of the side effects is unusual dreams. I have been having the funniest dreams and am sleeping better then i have in yearsDoes the patch and the gum help to stop smoking? is there any other alternatives? -
Boyfriend smokes :( how do i make him stop? -
Boyfriend smokes :( how do i make him stop? -
I try to get my boyfriend to stop smoking but he says its to hard.
We went on holiday and he didnt have ony because we were with my parents, he says he-s stopped but he-d had 2 since we got home and im worried he-s doing it behind my back because all his family smokes. i dont want to say anything just in case he think im nagging?If you hate smoking. Don-t date smokers. That-s just common sense.You really cant make a person stop smoking if they don-t want to. Only they can do it by themselves.
Don-t give your guy a hard time and make him sneak off to smoke. That only makes it bad for both of you. If he smokes, let him smoke openly and don-t nag him about it. If he has a family background of smoking (as I did) it would take a quantum shift to make him even understand that smoking may not be acceptable to others.
I stopped a few years ago after a long lifetime habit that started when I was a very young boy. Why did I stop? Certainly not because I saw the -writing on the wall- about the dangers of smoking. It was just because I wanted to.
Give him his space and work very gently with him on this issue and he may come to understand your perspective.Unfortunately, you probably can-t. If he wants to smoke he will, and if you complain about it he-ll either stop but resent you for it, not stop and resent you anyway, or say he stoped but do it in secret. Men dont like to be told what to do.
Thats just in my experience though, maybe he-s a really nice guy and he-ll understand you-re thinking about his health. So try explaining how you feel to him, just once, but very clearly. then after that don-t go on about it.
OH OH, I know! challenge him to a race and when he finishes 50 ft behind you, panting like a dog, he-ll feel like a loser and want to be fitter.Well, yeah, that-s the thing -- you can-t *make* him stop, it-s so addictive I-ve seen people smoke themselves to death. So let him know that you-re concerned, but don-t count on his doing it, if he does, great, but if you push him too hard he-s just going to lie and do it behind your back because he *can-t* stop.Try explaining to him that you are worried about his health and that continuing to smoke will result in him having all sorts of future health problems which are going to effect you just as much as him. The problem with smokers as a lot of them see it as -their problem- but in reality they-re causing major stress and problems to the people that love them too. A look at some pictures of lungs with emphysema might help too.I guess try to get him to stop by saying convincing stuff. I mean my grandfather died from lung cancer cos of smoking. My friends grandfather did too. There-s alot of health problem. If my bf smoke I would tell him I want to spend a long and as healthy as possible life with him cos i wouldn-t know what happens or if there is anything after death. If it-s my wish for him to stop I think out of love he will.
Try to just sit down and have a talk. If it-s something you don-t like he should just put in a effort for u.
good luck!!Unless you-re the great and powerful Oz, you can-t make anyone do anything unless they want to.
You should have thought of this before dating someone who smokes. Not to bright on your part.
Yes, it is nagging.it,s going to be up to him if he wants to stop or not. there,s nothing you can do or say to make him stop. he has to make that decision his own.I stopped smoking 2 months into my pregnancy and it is the best thing I ever did for myself and my new family!

Now make sure you never have to live through quitting again.
You may have just saved your own life.
And trust me .... someone you know will quit because you did.
Within a year of my quitting several of my friends quit too. Because it-s catching! Be healthy!well done, i have stopped too. goodluck, stick to it.
watch how you start to taste things again, and smell nice things.

How do i get my bf to stop smoking weed? -
How do i get my bf to stop smoking weed? -
he has a bad mind at this he is not stopping it i need help pelas i love him and i dont wont to lose him to drugs what do i do to stop himDump him. If he does not care about himself then he will never care about you either.Sadly there-s nothing you can do to help him by yourself personally, you need to tell somebody like the police or organization that fight against drugs. My uncle use to be a x-drug-user and my dad got him help and now hes marry has a son, he volunteers to go to schools and tell kids its NOT okay to do drugs. Its a sad thing but if he gets help early in life he can still leave a happy life and he begin thankful how you save him. :) Good luck ^^
ALSO DON-T BELIEVE THE PEOPLE THAT SAYS -JOIN HIM- UR MAKING A RIGHT CHOICE NOT SMOKING WEED (because it can be very dangerous and it can hurt your lungs you need to talk to people who can help him)
-Kars-3333if you-re confident about your relationship
talk to him about it
tell him how much it-s breaking you down
explain that you don-t want to lose him to it
if he cares he-ll try to stop or even get some type of help
if he doesn-t then it-s not worth you hurting over it because
he shouldn-t put a habit in front of your feelingsThe only way a person stops doing any drugs is if they want to and are willing to stop themseleves. Don-t sound like you-re pushing it but try talking ot him. Maybe seek professional advice?
Maybe look at this website for support and advice:
http://www.drugfree.org/Intervention/
People CAN change. Don-t give up on him unless it really does seem unlikely he-ll play ball.
Its a serious problem to get hooked on any drug. Don-t let yourself get lost in staying with him for the wrong reasons though.
If he is going to smoke, he-ll do it whether you-ve said anything or not. It HAS to be his decision to stop. If you push too hard you-ll end up having him smoking in secret, which will be even worse!

xxxMy boyfriend, who is 16, is also a pothead. I am 18. In the beginning of our relationship he quit smoking, but it was his own choice. Honestly, I would rather be around him when he is high, than when he isn-t. When your boyfriend gets high, it prob makes him feel good about himself. Just deal with it... heck, you should even smoke with him. It makes you and him closer too. Trust me.you are an awful person. if you actually have something against him smoking weed (a totally harmless pastime) then leave him. why would you try to change someone, unless you are a completely evil person? why don-t you just smoke with him and chill a little?break up with him. He-s not going to change. I dont understand why women think they can change guys. Just end that relationship, it-s not going anywhere. He-s not doing anything for himself so you definitely cant do anything for him.Weed really isn-t that bad and people don-t change so you either accept it or you leave him. If you force him to change, he will just resent you for it.Take away your va J J. He might change his mind. I don-t think you need to worry about pot. It he was on the needle or something then I-d understand but come on. At least he will never beat on you while he is high.uhh when ur with ur bf stay with him one whole day and make sure he doesnt smoke and then he will start to get used not smoking alot. becuase my mom did the same to my dad and know my dad doesnt smoke anymoreYou can-t stop people from doing what they want. If he wanted to and knew how you felt about it and actually CARED, he would try.Have u tried tricking him into the doctor or just breakup with him or take him with u and say do u know wat this could do to ur lungs sorry im not really good.Offer him an ultimatum; you or weed.Hi..
Buy him a pocket of cigarette and you too enjoy those thing with him
Then only he believes that you are his well wisherTell him that if he doesn-t stop smoking, you will stop giving him bjs.just get another b f junkies dont/cant/wont change and like it or not weed is a drug = junkie.he fights he smokes weed and he looks at other girls butts
i think he wants to loose youGood luck.call the cops on himtell him you will leave unless he stopsHow do i get my bf to stop smoking weed? -

need help to stop could someone give me online links for free help.
any would be gratefulwww.quitsmoking.comI used to smoke about two packs a day. Went cold turkey for about a year and every single minute was pure torture. Eventually, I started smoking again and figured I would just die a smoker because I couldn-t go cold turkey ever again. Some years later, a friend told me that she had once quit smoking by being hypnotized. I don-t know why, but when I heard her story, I just knew that would work for me. To make a long story short, I got hypnotized and never smoked another cig again. I never even felt the urge to smoke and it didn-t bother me to be around other people who were smoking. I told my girlfriend-s brother, who was also trying to quit, about it and he went too and stopped smoking. It was absolutely the best thing I ever did.
The American Lung Association has (or at least they did have) a hypnotist that traveled all over the country holding hypnosis seminars to make people quit. I didn-t go to one of them, but my friend-s brother did. It was inexpensive, took one evening and he hasn-t smoked in about seven years. As for me, I-ve been smoke-free for about 18 years now. Check out the link below that talks about the American Lung Association-s hypnotism program and gives you info on how you can find it in your state.

Although it might not be for everybody, it certainly helped me to kill the smoking monkey on my back. Good luck...cold turkey best way if you can do itRemember: its hard has hell for two weeks, pretty hard for the next two, then tough but really not so bad for another month, then you are more or less in the clear. I used the patch. Worked OK but don-t sleep with that thing on. I had CRAZY dreams. I dreamed I slept with everyone I knew and that-s only one mild example... after that it was only for daytime use!
I also drank a lot of wine, played a lot of Xbox and didn-t go out to smoky bars for three months. The patch does help... not a huge amount but it helps.
But you gotta do it. Been three years and I feel great. No matter how long you have been smoking its always a good time to quit.Dont know where you live but I went on NYquits, they sent me free patches. it-s been 36 days now that I am smoke free. I feel good! Good luck. put your mind to it set a date and you WILL do it.I stopped smoking 3 months ago and this site really helped me....

Not getting a hard firm erection like i used to? -
Not getting a hard firm erection like i used to? -
i only get a semi erection every since friday which i had whiskey dick that night and couldnt have sex with her. i think that smoking is causing the problem though, since it has been a while and i still haven-t gotten a full erection. i used to get very hard very easily.
anyone give me some tips, if smoking will actually solve the problem? i-m gonna stop smoking for 3 days and see if i can get one. but until then i-m looking for all your inputI would say you should see a doctor. There is definitely something wrong if you can-t get really hard at your age. You should be having full erections.Dude you gotta stop smoking and lay off the bottle, too.
If you want to be healthy, man, it-s the only way.If your seventeen and having difficulty with erestions, your should see a doctor as soon as possible!
Smoking will affect you, but at 17 you won-t notice it!
See your doctor first!If you smoke marijuana, it will definitely cause problems with getting a full erection and also cigarettes do cause erectile dysfunction. (Men who smoked more than 20 cigarettes daily had 60 percent higher risk of erectile dysfunction, compared to men who never smoked.)
So cut the smoking FOREVER because it-s very bad for you (but i am sure you know) and limit the alcohol.You dont give enough info,, smokeing just doesnt do that like that,,, You didnt give an age, any type of medication, were you drinking, did you masturbate first, ,, there are many things that cause it,,, and erection is about 80 perent mentalHow old are you? If you drink too much and smoke too much, there are a lot of things you will have more and more trouble doing.
Please go see your doctor.
Edit: Ah, you-re 17. At that age, you should have NO problem with rock hard....you know.
Your problem is emotional or physical. Emotionally, do think have premarital sex is wrong? Do you not want to turn this girl into a sl_t? Did you lie to her to get her in bed? Will her father kill you if he finds out? Do you have latent homosexual tendencies? Could she have a communicable disease? Any of these being true could prevent you from performing.
Physically, at 17, I doubt smoking has an affect. If you were drunk,...yes...that hinders performance. If you have too much to drink, you cannot perform (not sure anyone explained that to you). And if you-re drinking that much at 17, you need to stop. Other physical problems could be present, like cancer, so you really need to get this checked out by a doctor.
Best of luck.Men who smoke will eventually have a hard to getting an erection. Smoking lead to peripheral artery disease. This reduces the blood flow to parts of your body, including your penis. It is permanent if you don-t take action to quick smoking now. I -m not sure exactly what has lead to your inability to get an erection, but this will happen if you continue to smoke.
I would see a doctor if this doesn-t clear up soon. Good luck.Not getting a hard firm erection like i used to? -
