My dad smokes ciggeretts, any sugestions?

My dad does dope but thats not what im worried to. the problem is my dad smokes ciggies and he smokes a lot, around a pack/pack half a day(20 in a pack). i always hated it but now i see its getting REALLY bad hes been borrowing money of me, my brother and sister to buy ciggierettes. I hope your happy you fucking tobbacco companies!

worse still my mum smokes when she is Really stressed but she doesn't buy her own, ever, only smokes my dads. so not only is it making a habit(smoking when stressed) it has a physical addiction for mum as well.
so lets have a little summary of the problems:

- my dad inhales most of his money for himself that he could use on somthing to enjoy himself
- he coughs up tar or phegm( i never see him but i can hear him)
- hes passive smoking my sister, me, my brother and mum
- he suffers standard withdrawl when he stops
- his lungs are probably %40 gone

look i really need some sugestions how to help him. if i throw away his ciggies, he buys more. its REALLY annoying.

why don't you do the honorable thing & buy him some cigs before he runs out, then he won't have to ask for money kids:stoned:

Does your Dad even want to quit cigs? You know you can't make someone give up but you can help them once they make that choice. I found a really good called "Breaking the Chains" which really helped me when I qiut nicotine its an e-book.

yea you cant make him quit, but maybe you should show him this picture







its a neck tumor, caused by tabacco smoking



sorry if you were eating ;)

both my mom and dad use to smoke alot (mom smokes 1 1/2 packs dad smokes 2 1/2 packs), my mom quit with something called wellbutran ... it worked realy well and she quit cold turke and hasnt smoked in 6 years but my dad refuses to quit and still smokes a ridiculas amount ofcgs a day. if your dad doesnt want to quit you arent going to make him, i suggest you dont buy him cigs next time he asks you but instead offer him something to stop withdrawel such as welbutran or maybe something else you have heard good stuff about

i'll be trying the wellbutrin, i'm optimistic:thumbsup:

That

Rank.

But thankyou - youve now made me stub out the half of my cig that was left, and want to quit!
Fuck, I dont want an ugly-ass brain looking thing growing out my neck when I reach 30.

I'll socially smoke and it seems to be going fine for the past year or so, definatly not physically addicted to them. I smoke maybe... 6-7 cigs a weekend then go the week without smoking with ease. But my friend though... hes smokin about a pack a day and you can really tell when he coughs. It sounds like a shitty car tryin to start lol, has that raspyness to it. Cigs are definatly not a good thing to be addicted to... I guess i'm only lucky to escape it thus far, should probably just stop.

i smoked reds for about ten years. the only way to quit that worked for me was to litteraly disgust myself out of smoking. this was what worked for me
1. don't empty ashtrays- you won't belive how fast they fill up
2. any time you want a smoke, go for a reburn. take a drag of that 3/4 finished stinky smelly butt.
3. if you really start going nuts and this isn't working a friend of mine started out rolling about 10 joints every morning and everytime he wanted a cig he had a joint instead. worked well for him
hope any of this is helpful
stay healthy, stay safe mr.d
