There is no way to make somebody stop smoking,and just like with users of any drug,it is very unlikely a person will stop unless he or she wants to._36_
Step One: Make Observations
Smoking use can affect memory and make it difficult for people to do well at work or school.Other bad effects that you may notice include:_37_Is she getting sick more often than she used to?
Write down your concerns using "I" statements,such as "I feel sad that when you smoke you give up your artwork."_38_
Step Two: Approach the Person
Bring up your concerns to your friend at a relaxing time.Express your concerns using the statements you wrote down.Tell him you will be there to support him if and when she decides to give up smoking.He will likely give you one of three responses:
He wants to quit.
_39_
He wants to stop,but not yet.
You must be willing to calmly accept any of these responses.If he says he does want to stop,go on with the next step.If not,they will have to be visited later when he is ready.
Step Three: Prevent Him Giving Up Halfway
_40_However,symptoms only appear after some time of quitting smoke.This causes some who are addicted to believe that they are not actually addicted and to start using again.
A.He doesn't want to quit.
B.Does this person appear more nervous?
C.Are you lazy because you smoke too much?
D.It's best to approach the person in this manner.
E.People can become physically dependent on smoking.
F.The drug can't stay in the system for a long period of time.
G.But there are steps you can take to support a friend or family member.
