help me to stop smoking! stop smoking medications, stop smoking help, stop smoking plans and more
I just found out tonight that my father is smoking, again. I am the only one that knows at this point and I will keep it that way if he agrees to quit…My mother doesn’t know and I’m sure he has lied about it to her, so I don’t want to mess up their marriage. Are there any ideas on how to get him to quit???

I know exactly how you feel, I was in a very similar situation. I remember that I was so nervous at that time and I took it out on everyone around me. I didnt know what could I do until, thanks god, I found Smoke Deter. Now I can look back and laugh on myself and in the same time I remember how helpless I was. I hope that I'll never be in the same situation again
Nicorette patches.
sow his lips shut so he cant inhale that cigarette
threaten to shoot him with an AK-47!
i will allow you to borrow mine if you wish…
you can’t. sorry.
tell him your gonna start if he dont stop
buy him the patch or something and then leave it on his bed when your mom is out, or take him aside and talk to him like a grown up and simply tell him he will mess up the family if he continues. try to help him out with it. it is a very hard habitat to break.
Every time he smokes, kick him in the nuts and tell him his marrage and his life is at stake.
I would have a little talk with my dad.
Tell him how much you love him and would hate to lose him.
Ask him if he wants to be around to see his grandchildren.
tell him that u realy want him to. Then show him some bull shit statistics off the inter net, that says if he smokes then u r 99 % more likely to smoke. also if he smokes around u cough a lot.
buy him a box of nicarett gum or nicotine patches to get him off. send him to rehab. or u could say that if he doesnt stop you will start. (BUT PLEASE DONT) everytime you see him smoking, say 3 minutes. eventually it will get annoying and he will want to know what it means. everytime you smoke a cigarett, you take 3 minutes off of your life.
Good luck.
Tell him that smoking is bad, and a couple of facts, like:
Over 40,000 smokers die a year.
Over 30,000 people die BECAUSE of people smoking.
And other stuff.
Well, my dad started smoking and i thought i could never get him to stop. But then i started to hide his cigarettes, he got really made so i put them back. But then i told him maybe he could have to same taste of a cigarette but just having a healthier kind….:D
crush all his cigs and tell him it’s a hard habit to hide you can smell it on cloths breath hair and fingers not to mention where he does it
keep hiding his lighters and cigerettes and make it so the only time he has a chance to buy them he is around your mom, so he is forced to:)
smoke in front of him. he’ll feel bad and quit
I showed my dad pictures of ruined lungs. lol. he freaked out, and stopped for like 2 weeks. Buy him gum, lots of gum. When he has to do it, remind him of gum, or instantly change the topic.
O and explain how wrong it is, and how bad it is that he is lying
go to him when he is smoking and take a cigarette from him and start smoking with him. if he tells you stop tell him hes a frickin hypocrit and that you will stop if he stops.
dude it worked for me and it should for you..
he will even respect you more for this
tell him that if he doesnt you will tell your mom..im sure he doesnt want her to know. also tell him your true thoughts on how you feel/ be deep and say it how it is. good luck! sory bout your dad
if he doesn’t have the determination to stop. he won’t. black-mailing won’t really help either.
Well that could be really challenging.You should get him interested in other food or what not and smoke.Get him to go to the doctor let him watch videos of smoking,what it can do to him..
My dad has been smoking for like 20 years. I have done everything to make him quit. I told him about how bad it was for him, he tried taking these pills and they didn’t help, then he tried patches, that didn’t work either. Then he told he he smoked like 30 cigarettes a day so I told him to smoke 29 tomorrow and 28 the next day and 27 the next day and so on..he barely even tried that. You can maybe try hiding them from him.
Good luck
well 2 easy solutions that work:
wellbutrin: very effective and safe quit in 30 days it will make ur father not stand 2 put a cigarette in his mouth after a month and it will taste bitter
something that i saw on racheal ray about a laser device that is new 500 $ per session but u don’t need more than one it eases quitting symptoms and stabilizes the mood it was in the human lab of rachael search it 2 know more
He’s gonna have to really WANT to quit. Otherwise there is NO way he will. My friends have been trying to quit for so long but it’s so impossible! I’ve been trying to get my brother to stop and he did, but once he got pressured into it again he started up. It’s not gonna be easy and your dad is gonna have to do 90% of it but there are some things out there that can help. Chewing gum can help a little. Better to get addicted to that than smoking. They also have patches which you can get into.
And recently on the news I heard of a cigarette that doesn’t contain Nicotine or tobacco so you can smoke and its a lot healthier. I really hope this helps
tell him it kills more ppl every year than anything else according to the cdc, which are the same idiots who legalized it, to make $$$, because they know people can’t stop, which means they can’t stop spending $$
Well all I can tell you is to just give him time there’s really no way to make him quit that’s really something he may need to decide on his own so that’s all I can tell you. Am sorry I hope he stops.
sob story man something like dad i want you to be alive for a long time or you are killing your self or you could just take a pack when he is not looking.
home work assignment:
the detriments of smoking – how to quit smoking
use him as a resource – interview him
at the end of the interview acknowledge how difficult it must have been to quit and how appreciative you are that he put you and your mother above smoking, (pure guilt)
it’s a subtle back door approach to getting your point across
you can’t that’s something he got to do by himself
Have him try an electronic cigarette. I was a smoker for over 30 years and this is the only thing that helped me. The electronic cigarette looks like a cigarette, tastes like a cigarette and it even looks like smoke that you exhale. The "smoke" is a water vapor mist. He will still get the nicotine he craves but not all the harmful chemicals found in cigarettes.
Many smoking parents believe that if they don’t smoke in their homes or in their cars, they are protecting their children from the affects of smoke. Unfortunately, this is not the case. The toxins that clinging smoke emit into the air are known as environmental tobacco smoke or ETS. They can be re-suspended and can sometimes be react vapor-phase components, which in turns causes the smoke to be inhaled repeatedly. Children’s bodies are much more susceptible to the affects of ETS than an adult. ETS has also been linked to SIDS, ADHD, poor cognitive performance in school, mental retardation, behavioral disorders and other diseases.
