Does anyone have any advice on how to support someone while they try to quit smoking?
FH is trying to quit. He's having a hard time and he doesn't like to talk about it.
Every once in a while, I'll ask how it's going and he always answers, but sometimes I get one word and sometimes I get how it's actually going.
A couple of weeks ago I put a gift bag full of hard candy and gum (and vanilla tootsie rolls..gross) in his car with a card. I don't even remember now what the card said..something about how I believe that he can do anything. He liked that and said it was helpful.
I feel like anything I say or any advice I would offer would just be unhelpful, as I have no experience quitting and don't know how he feels.
Shutting up and letting him know I love him is probably the best way to go, but it's hard to watch someone you love struggle and not know how to fix it.
