How to support husband?

I had my last cigarette November 15th, 2011 and have never wanted one since. I've never had the urge, even when people were smoking around me, I never wanted one. It was as easy and as natural as breathing for me.

Anyway, my hubby is trying to quit and struggling with the last one or two. We go back home from Northern Ireland to England in 9 days for a week and really want him to have given those last couple up. We will be staying with my sister and her fiance and celebrating my niece's first birthday, the only person that smokes is my father and we won't see a lot of him.

I don't want him to feel like he has to sneak away to have one etc, so, can anyone offer any advice on how I can help him? I wasn't in this situation so I don't know how to help him and I don't know anyone else that has quit apart from my sister and that was due to pregnancy and the smell knocked her sick. Was really easy for her.

Any help would be great. Thanks.

I would suggest buying him alan carrs easy way to stop smoking.

It helps by more or less explaining why you actually smoke, rather than why you think you smoke. You end up or at least i did viewing ciggerettes in a completely different way.

I also wouldnt force him or put pressure on him, as that might make him feel like he is giving something up, when actually he would be gaining.

I cant recommend the book enough.

He's got the book but won't read it.

I don't force or put pressure on him and I've tried every way I can think of to try and get him to read it.

He also doesn't have a choice in quitting, he needs to do it or we won't get the fertility treatments we need.

He is doing well though, only 1/2 yesterday. He's off work today so I'm hoping he can get through the day without one. Once we've got that first day, I believe it will be a great help.

really
try to talk with him alot of about smoke .
and try to be with him alweays , evry time , and insist for him for not smoke from you , that hurt uyou , and hurt him
for that can smoke les , and les , cauz alweays you are with him

Yep, the Alan Carr book really makes you resent the cigarette!

I found keeping him occupied in other ways was helpful
