Don’t give up. Don’t give up on your efforts to encourage and support your loved one. Research shows that most people try to quit smoking 5 to 7 times before they succeed. Think of relapse as practice for success – it means they are one step closer to quitting for good.
Encourage them. Praise them for quitting, and encourage them to try again. Remind them how long they went without a cigarette before the slip. Studies show that most people who don’t succeed in quitting are ready to try again in the near future. Help them remember all the reasons why they wanted to quit.
Help them to learn from the attempt. It takes time and skills to learn to be a nonsmoker. A failed attempt to quit is an opportunity to learn about triggers and what works and what doesn’t – information that is valuable for successful quitting in the future.
Tell them this is normal. It’s normal to not succeed the first time you try to quit. Tell them that, now that they know they can get through the worst part, they can get even further next time. -
It is good, but talking someone out of an addiction they don't want to stop is not very effective

Four major points I gat it bruh...!

@ragnar-lothbrok
If You Are a Smoker
●Smoke outside and always away from the quitter.
●Keep triggers such as cigarettes, matches and lighters out of sight.
●Don’t ever offer the quitter a smoke – even as a joke.
●Join them in their effort to quit. It’s better for your health, and it will help those you are trying to support. -

I used to smoke. You can mention it, but sometimes you've got to let people fight their own battles. I hated it when people tried to make me stop, made me want to do it more.

Then we should quit helping people to make them quit? I mean they will quit when they feel to? What if they dont?

@ragnar-lothbrok Apart from enjoying the taste and effect, I smoked as a social crutch. Once my life stayed getting better, and I matured,I eventually found I didn't need them
