Hypnosis is a great way to help people stop smoking. A good replacement for smoking is a healthy lifestyle. Tell your boyfriend to begin a regularly scheduled exercise program.
I never smoked but my husband did. He read about lung cancer and how it affected one man – one man who had small children about the same age as our children at the time. That was the motivation my husband needed – he stopped smoking. He was 28 years old – he is now 67 years old and in top health.
Just do it!
Gum really helped me. My friends would throw away my packs of cigs and give me gum. All the gum brought a slight lust to smoke, but the lust disappeared. About two weeks later I stopped chewing Gum I didn’t feel a need to smoke anymore, weird eh? The gum got me off the addiction, I could smoke 2 – 5 cigs on the weekend with friends and still didn’t get addicted, the gum stopped my addiction completely. I’d highly recommend Gum, patches would be a good idea too, they can help. For him to stop smoking he’s gotta force himself not to smoke, that’s the biggest help out of all things
Hope i’ve been of help ^.^
I’m not sure I understand the question. Are you looking for a replacement for your boyfriend or the cigarettes?
I don’t smoke, but my dad did. Maybe a pack or two a day. Now he’s been “sober” for over 2 years. He said that a book called The Easy Way to Stop Smoking by Allen Carr. He said it was a miracle. It focuses on the phsycological aspects of smoking too.
I know 2 people that have quit. Both said a Lollipop helped them stop. The feel of having something in their mouth and the hold o it is near smoking,
give more fruits to him, more water, more sugar free sweet and also smoke his ciga below more.
I have tried many things to stop. I smoked 3 packs a day. I smoked so much it was more than my car payments every month. The best program I have used is the “quit smoking right now program” http://tinyurl.com/yag6v4
They helped me go cold turkey and never look back. In fact, I can have a cigarette now and not want another one. That’s how great it works.
I used the patch as well, and didn’t smoked for 2 months but had headaches every day. the mental part is hell, no question. what worked for me is chewing big red gum, (no other flavor helped, kinda strange), and changing your habits. if you normally wake up and smoke while drinking coffee, take a walk instead and have coffee when you get back. you really have to do something totally different at those times when you would normally be smoking. it’s hard to do, but someone told me that the mental craving of a cigarette only lasts for 7 minutes, so, if you can get past that 7 minutes, it’ll be easier! I suggest you invest in yourself and then put the money you are saving into a jar and watch it grow, then buy yourself a nice reward for quitting. good luck to you!
