my daughter had to have surgery and the md said you will stop smoking or I won’t do your surgery.He said smokers don’t heal well.I am sick of cigs but I cont to smoke,they are nasty and I hate them but I can’t stop.I am scared of chant ix cause to the psychological side effects.

My girlfriend has been smoking for a few years before I came into her life and now since we are at 6 months I told her that I want her to start quitting because I hate smoking.

She has cut down to almost 3 a week when shes around me, but when she is with her friends (current smokers) or is drinking then she chain smokes non-stop.

It’s obvious that her trying to quit isn’t really cutting it and I want to find a way for her to be able to quit throughout the whole day everyday.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Keep in mind any attempt of me to take action by force results in her getting quite pissed at me, which stresses her more and makes her smoke more, so I’m trying to find an easier way for both of us

Thank you
*EDIT*

Umm we do get drunk more often then usual and the 3 cigs a week is ONLY around me, but she smokes at least half a pack if she’s with her friends.

It’s not a case that she’s has dangerous habits now, but I want to prevent them later if this goes any further. Lord knows if I even thought of asking her to be my wife or somethin’, then smoking would be something of the past

I’m 16 and I have been smoking for about 2 years now, I’m planning to stop because I’m going to a private school. I don’t want to put my parents money to waste, and I don’t want to ever break there heart if they find out about my bad habit. I’m very much addicted, I need about 3 cigerattes a day. I’m asking how I should stop smoking because it’s not like I’m going to buy nicotine patches or nicotine gum. Should I just slowly do less and less until I’m finally off of it. If your advice is to me is to just completely stop, its not that easy, even for someone who’s only done it for 2 years. If I don’t do it for a couple days my mind goes crazy. Does anyone have some real and sensible advice. Also I usually get my cigs from fishing.

Today is my second day without cigs and i really wanted to quit, but i dont really want to quit anymore. Im bored when i dont smoke and im feel like a crazy asshole. Someone give me a good reason to smoke.

I’m trying to find out as much information as possible about COPD b/c my father has it. He’s been living with emphazema for a while. He just quit smoking for the most, he’s only smoked 2 cigs in 2 days, so i’m proud of him. But what are the final stages and how long does a person usually live after they’ve hit the final stage?
