The first YEAR is the hardest, especially if you like to drink and go out to bars. I quit before and relapsed a couple times within 5-6 months.
The only tip I can offer is tell him to start exercising. I don't believe in patches, nicotine gums, lasers, etc..Those might help with the physical part of the addiction, but as stated above, the hardest part is the actual habit itself.

you're right about that: there is a very dangerous point after a couple of months (it was seven for me in my first attempt) when you think that you stayed smoke free for so long that one cigarette can't harm, especially when drunk. big mistake, i bought a pack 20 minutes later.
