Dear Lybrate user,
for any deaddiction treatment, the strong desire in the patient to quit the addiction is the base for success -- so we have to strongly convince him the danger of continuing the habit - --you may take him to cancer hospitals ; wards with copd patients etc and let him see the sufferings of such people and let him hear from them --how they got the disease. Also persons whom he love and respect may try to convince him ; sometimes a tragic incident in his family may be the tri...more

Its almost 13 months of my quit smoking. Over come many effects of smoking cessation under guidance and advice from doctors. Now a weird issue with me 1. Whenever someone do smoke near me my entire body feels very weird, feelings like light head or headache occur from out of the blue, my face and neck feels tight and my saliva starts filled up my throat 2. My lower jaw becomes tight I feel like I am not able to open my mouth normally on advice from cari doctors I have been to dentist, cardio,neuro, ent and de addiction opd. Than cari doctor who examined me at first said not to worry just be on track but I found it very hard most of the time cause I am not able to control these weird things or feelings. I usually sit down, close my eye and breath. After few minutes my body become normal but those 5, 10 minutes always hard for me to face. Doctor always advice to me that I must have a well planned diet and lifestyle for at least next 12 months .he always rejects any kind of medicine saying you should not depend on them any advice.

Research shows that smoking marijuana causes chronic bronchitis and marijuana smoke has been shown to injure the cell linings of the large airways, which could explain why smoking marijuana leads to symptoms such as chronic cough, phlegm production, wheeze and acute bronchitis. 1

Distract yourself. Do the dishes, turn on the tv, take a shower, or call a friend. The activity doesn’t matter as long as it gets your mind off smoking.
Remind yourself why you quit. Focus on your reasons for quitting, including the health benefits (lowering your risk for heart disease and lung cancer, for example), improved appearance, money you’re saving, and enhanced self-esteem.
Get out of a tempting situation. Where you are or what you’re doing may be triggering the craving. I...more
