I quite 5 months ago, and my fiancee never smoked
if you want to hit me up on icq we can go through this but...
he needs your encouragement not judgement
if he faulters and smokes again, make sure he knows that its okay, that it could be the last mess up he has before success.
quiting cold turkey is the best, yet most difficult, remind him that it only takes 3 days for your body to stop being addicted, the rest is actually in his mind. Thats the worse part. Give him some gum or treats and work with him.
Get him to tell you when hes feeling he may fall - and work with him, be patient and always encouraging. ask him to save the money up weekly he would hvae spent, and use it on a night out.
Dont keep mentioning it - try and help him find the key reasons and situations he used before that triggered him to start smoking, then work on removing them or finding an alternative
good luck. it is worth it
