I know smoking is a very hard habit to break and to quit. But in the end since you all quit smoking it worth it in the end to quit.
Yes it does, I no longer want to put that junk in my body.I`am going to quit.
I just caught my roommate smoking again, darn, I am going to find another way to make him to quit. I made my mom (who smoked for almost 40 years), several of my friend who smoke for a long time to QUIT.
I should make my own business "HOW TO QUIT SMOKING A CIGARETTE" haha!
So, what's your basic technique?
My basic technique is really simple;
I hold the cigarette pack, I give him/her a cigarette one or two per day.
Take NICODERMCQ- it really works.
Try to encourage them to read book, or watch tv, or drink something like drink a water with lemon top on it instead of taking a cigarette.
Show them how bad smoking is, like videos, pictures, etc sometimes they never realized how bad it cause to their body.
Try at least 1 week without smoking, and take them to bar with heavy smokers in there. That person will feel sick from having no smoking for almost one week. They'd be like, I'm out of here. It was successful to my friends.
Everyone are different, so they may get different results.
You're right. They don't care about your kid. I don't think they respect your wishes not to smoke in the house because of what happened to your kid. That sounds pretty cruel. I would suggest you to find someone to take care of your kid or refuse not to go to thanksgiving dinner because of their disrespect or find something else to give them a "wake up" call.
U know what I did? I got my son's breathing treatment machine out and gave him his breathing treatment in front of everyone. Seeing my son gasp for air made them go outside and smoke. Nobody smoked inside the house! It worked!!!!! My hubby's parents' did smoke outside but the rest of the family didnt until they watched my son get his breathing treatment. Sad, isnt it?
One of my hubby's aunt (not a smoker) had an allergy attack from all the smoke in the house earlier. She had to leave.

Well I`am going to do it, midnight tonight I will have my last one.I hope I can make it happen.
pepsiwoman,
Hope you can kick the habit for good. Hang in there and keep chewing all the gums once you get a craving for nicotine.
And distract yourself by doing things when the craving kicks in... Sometimes that worked.
Good luck!
All the best for that -- let us know, tomorrow
