Im worried about him catching lung cancer in the future. I tried making him stop and he did try for a week, but went back. :/ i dont know what to tell him anymore. Any suggestions?

7773990 tn?1400728625 I want to say there is more nicotine in an e cgis but not certain. Just try to wien yourself off. When my mother in law attemoed to stop smoking I always saw her with an unlit cigarette in her mouth that she would puff on. It seemed to work for her. I'm sure it's still not good for you but better than actually inhaling the smoke. Hope this help, good luck. You can do it!!
Avatar f tn t say it so hard to stop smoking because its not!! Think about your baby!! Before I found out I was pregnant I smoked so much a pack a day!! And as soon as I found out I quite that day!!! I don't want to be hard but come on. I'm 13 week 5 days and I've found out I was pregnant when I was 6 weeks haven't smoked since that day!!! Don't be thinking about your self think about that little baby and how the smoke affect it... You can do it I'm telling you if I can you can.
Avatar n tn thanks just what people who are trying to quit need, a post like that, the motive of the post was to try and phsycologicly ( excuse the spelling) help people stop smoking, but as you have told them they won't overdose i don't think your post will help, the overdose of nicotine, i was told by my doctor, and some aids instructions have a warning on the instructionsabout smoking while using these aids.
Avatar f tn I started getting ready to stop smoking about 5yrs ago. I decided not to smoke in my car anymore. I suffer from anxiety, so I'm never away from the house for more than 2hrs max and I figured I could at LEAST go without a cigarette that long. At the time, I felt like this alone was an enormous accomplishment and it helped me to start thinking like a non-smoker, I had been a smoker for 33yrs before I quit last July.
Avatar n tn Any advice or tricks or tips on how you lady's have quit smoking successfully? I have tried and been unsuccessful 3 different times now. The habit of it I think is what gets to me. When I get bored is when I go back for a cigarette. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
Avatar f tn Ok so i am not 100% i am preg so i haven't stop smoking yet but i think it will be hard to do. Any suggestions or tricks to make me stop or distract me?
Avatar f tn So, what I want to know, from all the experts out there who have achieved pregnancy, are there any tricks you want to share on this board? I know all about the ovulation and stuff, but what about successful positions? Or, is it truly helpful to put your legs up in the air afterwards, or prop a pillow under your butt?

595141 tn?1239971814 Hi I quit smoking 6 weeks ago. I had smoked for 9 years (yes i was a young starter) When I tried to quit before I found it really difficult coz it felt like I was missing out on something (if that makes sense?) then a friend told me about this book called Allen Carr's Easy Way to Stop Smoking: Be a Happy Non-smoker for the Rest of Your Life. I read it and that really helped me. Its hard to explian but if you read it with an open mind it will work.
Avatar m tn Can I have some tricks to avoid some of the major heart diseases like stroke and heart attack? (Like, which foods are to avoid? some good practices?
Avatar f tn I know how hard it is to stop smoking. I smoked since i was 11 and quit for my kids when i was 24 and i swore i would never touch one again..hated the smell..couldnt stand been around anyone who smoked..hated seeing ppl in the street smoking. Then one night whilst on holiday with family i got very drunk and had a cigarette and from that moment i slipped back into it so easily..i smoked every day for another cpl of month and then i found out i was pregnant with baby no4.
Avatar n tn I've just found out I'm 5 weeks and am really struggling to stop smoking is there anything i can use to help thats safe?
Avatar n tn Just keep trying. Try every little trick in the book. It is very hard. VERY hard! But just do your best. Hell, cutting down as much as possible is better than nothing. Trust me, I'm due in 12 days. This is my 2nd pregnancy. Smoked all the way through with both. Ended up going into preterm labor with my first (not necessarily just bc of smoking), but managed to make it all the way through with this one.
Avatar n tn I know this is going to sound trite, but you CAN stop smoking if you truly WANT to. I used to feel just like you, do a Rip Van Winkle and sleep through the cravings and withdrawals. I can't tell you how many times I gave into that crave just 15 minutes after I said that this was my last one! That's because I really didn't want to quit. After smoking for 40 years and using an inhaler for the last 5 of my smoking years, I decided that it was time.
Avatar n tn I want to wait until it stops, because right now I dont even have a doctor and my insurance probably wouldnt cover it. I have tried the usual things that usually work to stop it --coughing, holding breath and bearing down, but they havent worked. The intensity it is at right now is not bad -- I can do everything including work when it is like this. My question is.....is it OK to just wait for it to stop? Or should I be worried? It has never gone this long before.
