How To Get Rid Of Smoking?

My friend cuts 1/5 of a cigarette, adds marijuana, puts it in a bong, and smokes it. This is called smoking a "popper". He smokes poppers constantly throughout the day. I am worried he is addicted. What makes this combination more dangerous than smoking pot/ tobacco independently?

Psychiatrist 's  Response
hi dear,
for quitting of tobacco and pot it is necessary first to be motivated well. once your motivation is high we can start treatment.
initial period is very tough for that you should consult psychiatrist and if you not able to quit at home preferably admitted in psychiatric nursing home. and for withdrawal to lower quit gradually and under supervision.
it is dangerous to take both together then alone.
Thank you
