How do I get someone to stop smoking?
January 2nd, 2010 | by Jeff Trikoleti |
How can I tell someone to stop smoking? She knows all the facts (it gives you cancer, emphysema, etc.), but she is young, so she still has that invincible mentality. What can I tell her about smoking’s cosmetic effects that will make her consider quitting? (besides the usual stains your teeth and your hands)
Thanks!
You cant MAKE someone stop smoking if they don’t want to. If she knows all the facts about what smoking can do to you then she is definitely addicted. The most effective way of stopping smoking is through multiple sessions of hypnotherapy. This process deals with the physical aspects of the addiction and the psychological aspects. Most stop smoking techniques don’t tackle the psychology which is why they are so ineffective. Willpower alone is about 4% successful, nicotine replacement therapy (patches, gum etc) are about 5% successful, multi session hypnotherapy can be up to 85% successful.
Hypnotherapy is only worth doing if your friend really wants to stop, its pointless doing it if she doesn’t want to stop.

The stuff about cosmetic effects works on some kids who don’t actually smoke, but smokers know that it’s exaggerated. Your friend is going to have to come to this decision herself.

Show your concern and never stop trying to stop her smoke. In the long run, she’ll realize that you are right.
Try to offer her some alternatives instead that will help her stop smoking like Nicocure. It is an all-natural herbal based product, having the ability to make you quit smoking much quicker than any other “quit smoking aid” we know of.

You can show the effects of smoking for the human through the photos in the net. And take here to a good hypnotherapist. I have stopped my smoking habit through hypnosis and hypnotheraphy which I found from http://www.thoughtsbecomereality.co.uk. They improved my self confidence and self control and helped me to control smoking.

I’ve tried just about every method there is out there and there is only one I can recommend - NLP! It eliminates the cravings.
Gum patches and all the other just did not cut it for me, not to mention cold turkey which was the hardest, I even tried the electric cig and it is just no match to the real thing.
Eventually a friend told me about a NLP method, you could do the same for your friend
Get her to check out this article: http://quit-smoking-today.bestof-the-net.com/
It’s the one that got me off the cigs and smoke free for GOOD even without gaining weight!
Good luck!

The only way someone can stop smoking is with their own will, no one can convince or tell them to change it is up to them to realize what they are doing

Regular smokers are aware of the problem: after short periods of nicotine abstinence, signs of physical stress appear in the form of circulatory problems, headaches and sweating.
Other associated symptoms are irritability, impatience, aggressiveness, bad mood and even depression and concentration disorders.
These unpleasant secondary effects are the major reasons why former smokers usually fall back to their smoking habits.
