My mom is 50 years old heavy chain-smoking woman for years. She is on her 3 packs a day habit with no intense to quit or cut it down. She is smoking for about 25 years, and she is always with a ciggie in her mouth smoking like a chimney and every day she smokes more and more. She also likes to smoke two cigs at once saying that she really needs to smoke more to feel good. In a recent years she started to smoke cigars on a daily purpose, she is really deeply inhaling them and says that she likes big smoke that fills her inside. She has a female friends about her age, who also smokes a lot and when they come to our house it is smoke everywhere i-m almost out of breath.And my mom changed a lot. She looks older than she is, she got wrinkles on her face too early, she has a yellow tar stained teeth and very bad breath, she is always coughing a lot and constantly out of breath, sometimes i noticed that she is feeling dizzy, but she says she is ok and that she needs to smoke.Is it problem?Sorry to hear about the problems your mother has, but why do you feel the need to keep posting the same questions?Is it a problem? For who, you or her? You need to get away from all the second hand smoke because it-s not good for you. You can still develop lung or heart disease and cancer from it. My mother never smoked a day in her life. But, now she has COPD from my father-s smoking. Your mother definately has a problem with nicotine addiction and by now, cancer, heart, and lung disease. I wouldn-t count on her being around much longer if she doesn-t give up her smoking. She-ll never recover completely from the damage she-s caused. But, at least she-ll stop exacerbating the problems.i don-t know what to tell u, my grandma just stopped but only becuase she is seeing this guy that is against smoking and she dosn-t want him to know that she smoked, she claims that within a couple weeks of stopping her breathing got better, and she says the first week is the worst once u get passed that its much easier, to help avoid temtations, like get rid of all the things she would use to smoke, but to get her to stop id just try telling her that ur worried about her health becuase all the things she has wrong like the coughing is probably caused by it, its hard to get someone to stop, u just have to convince them that they need to or that they want to, i kinda know what its like to try to get someone to stop smoking but my g-ma never somked that much, i don-t know what else to tell ya, i wish u the best of luck in convincing herIts a big problem. The most you can do is talk to her.
It doesnt seem like she wants to quit.
I hope you dont smoke or start.
Im 19 been smoking since I was 12 and im constantly trying to quit.
Beleive me. Its not worth it.Prepare yourself. It probably won-t end well, and you will most likely lose someone you care about at way to young an age. Also, stay the hell out of that house as much as possible, because guess what? When you-re in there, you-re a smoker, and you smoke just as much as her. Save yourself, and just try to do life and health better than she has. It sucks, but it-s reality. I wish you the best. Take care!!yeah your basically sucking in second-hand smoke and that can lead health problems to you as well. tell her that and see wha tshe says or just take her cigerettes away.You can find pictures of smokers- lungs on the Internet. You might start with the website below. Scroll down to the bottom where you will find pictures of a healthy lung vs. a deseased one.

Good Luckwow, thats all i can say. i have never heard of such a thing. all that smoke has got to be bad for you also. wow.You have asked this question 19 times now,If you have not figured it out by now then get off the computer and go back to school.You obviously can not understand any of the answers and your mom does not care.I am not trying to be mean but face the reality!!!the only person suffering in this situation is you...learn to cope with it, she is your mother and I doubt you will ever get her to stop
