What have I gotten myself into?

What in the hell... I dont even know where to start here. I wasnt asking for anyone to diagnose my husband or write him a scrip for anything... I was asking for tips and tricks for dealing with an issue. Good christ. I dont see how there is anything wrong with asking my god damn friends for advice.

Um, so, did the twizzlers work?

My advice has already been said, but getting him something the play with and chew/suck to keep his hands and mouth busy would probably work well. Also, maybe take a few day trips to places where smoking is not allowed, so he won't be tempted. Go to the movies or maybe even go carting. That way he can have fun and be distracted.

Alter his routine? FI smokes 2-3 cigarettes a day but doesn't have a problem not smoking when we are on vacation or something because he doesn't have the whole "come home, have cigarette" sort of mentality. Does he smoke specifically before or after he does certain things? If so, try to find something else to do in place of that.

Tiffany - people call me Mery here because of my SN. I would NEVER let people call me that in real life (My name is Meredith and I go by Mere with close friends and family), but, um, it IS in my SN, so I really don't mind at all.

way late, and haven't read any replies - but i found leftover candy canes to be very helpful (i also quit for new years). they help with the oral fixation and are about the same shape/size as a cigarette.
