You cant get her to stop smoking. She has to do it on her own.
I quit smoking in February of 2005. Hardest thing ever did. I found the nicotine patch helped with the urges.
But different strokes for different folks.
When you change a habit you must change things around you that might trigger or reinforce the bad habit.
If she smokes after she eats, suggest going for a walk together, hold her hand.
If she like to smoke while she drives, I suggest a hot cup of coffee for the drive. Sip it rather than drag on a cig..
She will have to find healthy subsitutes for those things she does that trigger her to want to smoke.
It worked for me.
Good luck, wish their was an easy answer.
Love and support are the best ways to help.Tell her to smoke six packs in one sitting-one after the other. She will be so discusted by the end of it all, that she will never smoke again.
