You are 100% right. I have quit smoking using many, many methods and always for the longest time was this ‘deprivation” (psychological ) for months. Either you are educated well in this area or you have tried Allen Carr’s way.
I used hypnosis which was of great help...but the ultimate way is getting the Book..The Easyway to Quit Smoking by Allen Carr. You read the whole book while you are still smoking. Trust me...this will deal with the number one problem, the Brainwashing in the mental part of your brain that keeps you psychologically hooked. This really does make it easier to quit and be comfortable and happy about it.
I know this sounds like such another stupid “Quit smoking “ book, but his method works and you don’t have the deprivation. He now has clinics all over the world. Willpower may work for some, but it never did for me, cause you don’t change the mindset with willpower to be a “nonsmoker.”
My husband quit chewing tobacco cold turkey, after 50+ years. Of course a double by pass helped. He knew the tobacco made him have sneezing fits where he would sneeze 20 or 30 times without stopping. the last thing you want to do is sneeze after your chest has been cracked open. It has been 6 months for him now and he is still Redman free.
Bookmark...thanks for the book advice...i may pick that up.
