How to make someone stop smoking when they have cancer?

help me to stop smoking! stop smoking medications, stop smoking help, stop smoking plans and more

My friend went to the doctor recently, and they found traces of cancer in his blood. However, he doesn’t want to stop smoking. Talking to him won’t help because he’s given up on life. He hasn’t told his parents yet, and making him feel guilty doesn’t work. How do I stop him?

How should I stop smoking, read details?

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.

How do you cover up the smell of cigarette smoke?

If you have been smoking and go home to your parents how do you hide/get rid of the smell of smoke so they dont know you have been smoking?

How can i stop my parents from smoking?

Everyday they smoke and everytime they do, i tell them to quit. But they just ignore me or push me aside and say something along the lines of ‘dont worry, just leave me alone and i’ll quit’ BUT THEY SAID THAT YEARS AGO!

They cant stop smoking and after tons of learning about cigarettes in health class, im always scared! Im not the type of person to tell my parents that i cry at night about it (i dont) and stuff.

Thier too addicted, it kills thier lungs and thier wallets.

How can i stop them? One time i tried telling them to stop smoking but they just yell at me and send me to my room or something. Its bugging me ALOT.
They usually go out for a smoke whenever they can (commercial breaks) but they have a habit of ging after they eat.

My parents started smoking when they were really young (14 etc) and now thier 30 ish.
but… its hurting me so bad… i cant stand it

How can i ask my friends to stop smoking without them getting mad?

Two of my friends smoke and I just figured it out today. I want to ask them to stop smoking, but I think that they will get mad. They started when they were 4 years old and their older sister tought them their parents already know, but they don’t seem to care. My friend told me where they get their smokes from and I don’t know what to do. Please,someone help me.

I am dying of a rare lung disease.Is there a website to guide me about what to expect and how to ease my going?

I have less than a year to live, maybe much less. I want to fill my time with positives and happiness but to prepare for the end as well.I know what death is like from the cancers that took my parents and first wife. Have you lost a loved one to IPF? What should I expect?

How do I get my parents to stop smoking?

My parents have been smoking for years. I have asthma and I have a 3 year old little brother. My parents try not to smoke around us and used to smoke out of our chimney in the winter. But now we just moved into a new house, and there is no fireplace so they just smoke in the house. They Can’t afford to use those quit smoking programs and buying cigarettes 3 times a day doesn’t help. They are truly amazing people, but smoking isn’t really making a good influence on others esapecially my brother and I. How can I get them to stop smoking?
