The method I chose was to wait one urge for a cigarette...then wait two urges..then wait three urges...ect. Eventually, (about 30 days), I was down to the decision of buying one more pack or not. Went to the store, the grocer said "the're all good"...I have not bought or smoked a cigarette since AUG 80'. What tilted the balance was to make the decision I wanted to quit..then asked God for the strength to do so...I have to give God the credit.

I just quit smoking on Memorial Day weekend, and I assure you it was because I wanted to quit on my own. I'd heard all the nagging & lectures, and nobody was telling me anything I didn't already know. They could talk 'til they were blue in the face, and I'd just turn my deaf ear to them. I understood what the consequences were. But I needed to acquire that inner resolve to be able to do it on my own. I finally accomplished it when I got really sick & tired of all the bronchitis, wheezing, low energy, etc. I had to tell myself "Enough is enough!" because I was too stubborn to listen to anyone else. I have a feeling your relative understands. But please understand it's a very difficult habit to break. She'll quit when she's ready. If not, then if it bothers you, set boundaries for when you're together (for example, you can ask her to not smoke inside your home).

They will only quit when they want to. You need to learn to love and accept that person for who they are and not "Down" on them because they do something you don't approve of. We are a society built on judging each other so badly. Everyone has some sort of problem they are attributed to in one form or another. Just relax and go with the flow, you will live alot longer and more productive life that way! No, its like any other addiction. They will only quit when they want to.

I have learned that not until I wanted to quit, did I quit. I tried quitting for my husband and family but it never happened. Then I decided that I would quit, and I did. Good luck.

She'll quit when SHE wants. When she gets tired of not being able to breath very good or coughing a lot in the mornings. Until then there's nothing you can do about it. PS-my Grandma lived to be 87 and smoked and drank. She eventually died from complications of having surgery for breast cancer.

My husband quit once for a while, started up again because he was hanging out with too many people that smoked. He did a church remedy. A big glass of orange juice with a teaspoon of cream of tartar in it. Lots of vitamin C. And carr yaround a trial/travel size of scope. Anytime there is a crave for a cigareete, rinse and spit. This works very well. YOu can also hang out at places where no smoking is aloud so her smoking is cut down a bit when you are around. little things like that can help. The less they smoke, the easier it is to quit smoking. Encourage her but stop telling her how bad it is for her.
