Re: Stopped smoking .... so easy !?
... and I thought you advised not to change anything about your lifestyle except smoking. Losing 2 mates during the course of one week is a rather dramatic change, I'd say.
As mentioned before, most of my close friends smoke, so I have gently suggested that they at least explore the physiological and psychological explanation to their nicotine addictions. The most enlightening discovery for me was actually understanding my addiction. The rest was comparatively easy. I am trying hard not to be an annoying prick of an ex-smoker, and believe that I have managed nicely so far.
One friend already quit (1 week+) as a result of my gentle prodding. My next test case will be my mother (a heavy smoker for 45+ years). I know she wants to quit, but is afraid of the unknown.
Cheers.
