unfortunately, until she wants to quit there isnt anything you can do…
smoking is an addiction, just like any other…. imaging trying to reason with a heroin addict….
just keep telling her how you feel about it
Answer by Christin K
Ask her if she knows how much money she’s putting into the pockets of the big tobacco companies, and how much they WANT her to keep on smoking–only because they are making profits!
Here’s the scoop on smoking and being addicted to tobacco.

Physical Addiction to Alcohol?
Question by ~Carolyn~: physical addiction to alcohol?
Hi out there. Does anyone know how long it takes typically for someone to become physically addicted to alcohol? At what point is a medically supervised detox suggested?
The reason I ask is I am worried about a friend who is drinking a 12 pack or more daily for the last month or so. She has been drinking heavy for about a year but it’s increased alot recently. She had a bad break up and is depressed. She’s expressed a desire to stop drinking but says detox & rehab are not an option. She is a single parent and cannot afford to be out of work. I feel that medical detox is her best option, just to make sure she physically ok while she comes off the alcohol. Any advice along these lines would be very helpful. Thanks
