No one likes to watch a loved
No one likes to watch a loved one hurt their health and possibly destroy their lives with tobacco. Nicotine, the drug in cigarettes and other tobacco products, can be as addictive as alcohol and even heroine. Be sure to be supportive, but do not push. Being their personal cheerleader not only reduces stress, but keeping a positive outlook can help with the depression that sometimes comes with quitting. You also could try quitting a bad habit of your own with your spouse. That gives you both a goal to work toward together. For more information, see my blog post, “Helping a Spouse Quit.”
