Trying to help a friend quit smoking!? -
I have a friend that is trying to quit smoking, and he is having a wicked craving right now. Do you have any tips on what we can do to get his mind off smoking?
Several things. Get out of that environment and do something else quick. Go for a run. Take a shower and brush teeth (smoking stinks bad)
Do something totally off the subject like some housework, something that takes energy.
I quit smoking after 13 years so just get up and kill the craving and anger with some productive chores and a to do list
Id let him have a drag or two off of a cig. We-re trying too and when we get weak, we go out and have a few drags, then come back in. Itll help and itll remind him how bad they are. Itll make him dizzy.
Rememeber to always be determinded...
The nicotine will get out of your body within 24hours.. but its effects will stay for about 5 years.... Every day for 5 years you-ll think about a smoke..
Think of it as Satan trying to tempt you...
