How can i help someone quit smoking? -


my good friend has a mom that smokes.he doesn-t like her smoking and recently me and him got in some trouble for smoking weed.she is really nice and cool and told us to stop,which we are,and now my friend wants her to stop smoking cigarettes.when i talked to her yesterday she was telling me that she was hooked and she couldn-t stop how can my friend help his mom quit?how hard is it to quit smoking?she smokes newport and i think she smokes one or two packs a day
It-s hard to quit. She is addicted to nicotine, so I suggest going with her to a doctor to get some medication and nicotine replacement products so she can ween herself off nicotine with as little discomfort as possible.

A pack of day is a lot of cigarettes so it won-t be easy and she will need to be the one who wants to change, otherwise it won-t work in the long run.
You cant help her quit she has to want it for herself
screammingWhat about shouting,scriming and hitting the person??!!
Its difficult but not impossible, However she needs someone of her own age who can guide slowly to other importance of life then cigarettes..
you can-t
it is so hard
to be honest i ve seen people dying cuz of this
usually they stop when dye
so sad
show them pictures of smokers lungs there so repulsive they will prolly decide wether or not its worth it
to be honest you cant do much to make a person stop smoking. I have been trying to do this with my BF for last 6 yrs, he has not even tried to quit. No matter how much i whined, cried, fought, argued, debated, make him understand, got him involved in other activites..... He just dosent quit. Recently he developed a huge cavity which hurt him bad like hell due to smoking but still he did not quit... Its a waste of time. Smokers wont and will not quit on someone elses persuasion.
