Yes, the other responder is right. Your bf's body is reacting to all the fumes/toxins he's ingesting. His lungs are really straining at clearing themselves out, & are probably in need of some fresh oxygen. Substituting energy drinks for oxygen is not going to work.
If he'll take supplements, get him something called Co-enzyme Q10. This will enrich his blood supply with oxygen. Also, consider another herb called "Red Clover"> This will help detoxify his body. If he will take a multi, go buy something called Spirulina. This will give him energy; cleanse/detox his system & help him fight the fatigue (the Coenzyme Q10 will also give him energy & fight fatigue).
Hope this helps. You're a good woman for caring for his health, & I hope he appreciates you.

seems such as you're having a actual concern. i could could say that no intercourse in a dating for that long ability that the lust and various love is long gone. in case you 2 stay collectively which i assume you do. Then it feels like a handy concern for him. He does not choose to circulate out so he maintains to be with you. Why could you decide directly to stay with somebody that makes you experience this way. i know that i does no longer. i know that as quickly as a dating settles down and you're collectively for a pair years then the intercourse slows. It does not stop however. i could say get out of the dating and detect a guy which will finished fill all your needs, sexually, emotionally and somebody which will make you experience reliable approximately your self. i think of that its to late to speak to him approximately it reason i'm useful which you have already got because of the fact it rather is been see you later. merely an further notice. he's the two servicing himself or he's having somebody do it for him. i'm hoping which you get all of it discovered and then get laid, you decide on it!!!!

OK, it's obvious that you know he's unhealthy. But how do you make him take up some healthy habits? If you two are close, try telling him that you love him very much and you need him to take better care of himself. Tell him that life would be much better for you two if you both take care of your health and that it hurts you to see him damaging his body like he is. I'm sure that will get the ball rolling.

Now, as far as how he's going to quit smoking, I think that might be the biggest problem you face in getting him to live healthier. Tobacco is engineered specifically to be very addictive. There are two ways he can quit. One way is to simply stop buying cigarettes and be very uncomfortable with the withdrawal symptoms for a relatively short period of time. The other way is for him to gradually reduce the frequency of his smoking until he is able to stop easily. Either way, he's going to need something to do because addiction to tobacco is also about doing something with one's hands. A small puzzle or a neat little toy should help with that.

Missing sleep is another tremendous problem. The body heals and replenishes itself during sleep. I recommend that he find a way to quit one of his jobs too, because it is unhealthy for him to miss so much sleep.

Energy drinks are terrible! They do help one have more energy temporarily, but they do it with caffeine or similar stimulants. Caffeine works by fooling the body into working past the point of exhaustion. That can damage the body. I used to drink a lot of tea (which was probably weaker than those energy drinks) and I had headaches for about a week after I stopped drinking it suddenly. For about a month after that, I felt different, like I was not thinking the same way anymore. After I got past the withdrawal, I felt awesome! I recommend he get off of those drinks and other caffeine gradually, as he will probably be uncomfortable from reducing his tobacco consumption. If he feels too uncomfortable he will make the mistake of thinking that he needs those things he is trying to avoid.

And it sounds like he's the type of person who doesn't eat right either. It will take some time, but if you could learn how to cook healthy food that tastes good then you can gradually introduce him to that too. And it would help you to eat a healthier diet too. Something you will find is that healthy food tastes better after you reduce the amount of junk food you eat. One reason for that is you've never eaten it before and are simply used to junk food. Another reason for that is junk food contains chemicals to make it taste better than what the ingredients actually taste like naturally. He will feel so much better after eating some good food that he will regret waiting so long to try it.

Again, what you need to do is convince him that you want him to do these things for him to be healthier. Tell him that health is a precious thing and that he's harming himself with his habits. People tend to resist change, but I think you can pull this one off. Getting him to see a doctor would be a good step, but you can't force him into going. It almost has to be his idea. I don't think he realizes how much you care about him. Once he realizes that you are trying to help him, and that he is hurting both of you by doing this, then I think he will get a better appreciation for his health and your relationship will be much stronger too. Good luck!

unfortunatly he will experience major problems before he may be willing to quit, he has a lot of phlem buildup in his lungs and possibly has pheumonia from smoking. something in the car shop may be adding to this too ,but not the problem if he has a lung illness dust and other things from the car shop is making his condition worse. he needs to see a dr to treat whatever he has before it worsens and it can kill him

Clearly he knows his problems are related to the cigarettes that cause him to gag and forces him to stop the individual cigarette. Tell him that you are through telling him the obvious, and that he has to decide how he is going to take care of himself. You have to decide if you want to stay with someone who mistreats himself like this.

Maybe the body's natural reaction to expel those harmful fumes. Try to make him quit, he should not be suiciding himself like this.
