My hubby has become an addict!

My husband was not a chain smoker. He used to smoke occasionally. But now he has become totally addicted to it. I tried telling him about the side effects but he says it is a stress buster. What should I do?

There isn't really much you can do, it has to come from him. Mine uses the vaping pen but it isn't enough. I had to get him a pack of 10 yesterday before I throttled him.

I can take it or leave it so it's frustrating watching someone addicted trying to quit but it's so hard for them.

He has to want to do it and if he's willing get him to see the stop smoking nurse at the GP or sign up at a chemist.

Nothing you will say will make him quit.
In fact, when people would tell me awful smoking related facts, I'd defiantly light up another.
Best thing you can do it gently suggest vaping, or another cessation method. But vaping seems to be the one so many of us die hard smokers have used to successfully cut down/quit.
