How can i help my mom stop smoking.......? -

i hate smoke so much it hurts my throat and eyes. she smokes about 5 cigarettes aday down from a pack ady, but now she seems to be stuck on 5 a day for the last few months. she has nicotine gum, but always refuses to useit. wheni tell her to use the gum she claims it just makes her want to smoke more. she is always complaining that when i ask her when she is gonna quit or when she is going to at least try the gum she bought it just makes her more nervous and wan tto smoke more. but if i dont ask her these quetions it seems like shell never quit and perhaps she will eventually go back up to a pack ady, what should i do?Start talking about her WILL in case she dies soon. If you are under 18 ask her what will happen to you if she has a stroke, especially if she-s on birth control pills. Talk about death and health. Does she have yellow teeth? That is a result of smoking.

Don-t give up on her. Also give her positive attention--nothing doing about smoking, but about other things she does that you like (meals, her clothes, her sense of humor, how much you like to be with her.) Good luck.Try this pill called Chanix.


My family has tried patches and everything and they don-t work.

but my aunt went on Chanix and she hasn-t smoked for 8 weeks.

I-m soo proud of her..

Try it out.. it works.take her to counsellingyou cant make her do it she has to want to for herself im a smoker and i know im not ready to give up, if ur mums not ready to or dosnt want to theres nothing u can do hun u cannot force things its hard i know she will have to in her own time good luck xxxmy grandpa used certs, but I don-t see how that helpssmokers are very stubborn people, my sister wont quit no matter how much i nag, your mums on 5 that aint too bad, just keep begging hopefully shell give in, tell her how proud u r already and that youd b rapped if she quit all 2getherMove out.I don-t know if there is alot you can do you can-t really make someone stop smoking believe me I know, I-ve tried to get my dad to stop smoking too I still do to this day but nothing, he did try and quit before but it didn-t last I don-t know what to do, but now I try to get him to go to the doctors to get his lungs checked but nope. So you can keep trying if you find a way to get your mom to stop smoking let me know how you did it so I can try it on my dad.
