Smoking

Give Up the GigsThe first thing I had to do was give up smoking. After thirty years I thought I was going to have to go through all sorts of withdrawals and pain however it was very easy. Allan Carr has written a book which I suggest you get. You see most of the reason we see it as hard is because lots of people make lots of money from people smoking and giving up so they want it to seem really hard but in reality there was no big cravings or withdrawal symptoms. Get the book or the audo book and give up right now |
HOW THE METHOD WORKS
Using psychotherapy, the method works in the opposite way to the “willpower†method. It does not concentrate on the reasons the smoker should not smoke : the money, the slavery, the health risks and the stigma. Smokers know all that already. Instead it focuses on why smokers continue to smoke in spite of the obvious disadvantages.
It is fear that keeps smokers hooked!
Fear the smoker will have to give up their pleasure or crutch. Fear the smoker will be unable to enjoy life or handle stress. Fear the smoker will have to go through an awful trauma to get free. Fear the smoker will never get completely free from the craving.
The Method removes these fearsSmokers quit with the Allen Carr Method as happy non-smokers, not feeling deprived but with a huge sense of relief and elation that they have finally achieved what they always wanted….

TO BE FREE!What about the terrible withdrawal pangs from nicotine?
The physical withdrawal from nicotine is so slight that most smokers don’t realise that they are addicts. What smokers suffer when they try and quit using other methods is the misery and depression caused by the belief that they are being deprived of a pleasure or a crutch. The Allen Carr Method removes this feeling of deprivation. |
It removes the need and desire to smoke. Once the smoker is in the right frame of mind and they follow the simple instructions, the physical withdrawal from nicotine is hardly noticeable.
No Gimmicks!
The Method does not use any gimmicks, useless aids or substitutes. No nicotine gum, patches, lozenges, tabs, inhilators or nasal sprays! No needles! No lasers! No drugs! No herbs! No shock treatment!
The Allen Carr Method is successful because:
- It removes the smokers’ conflict of will.
- There are no bad withdrawal pangs.
- It is instantaneous and easy.
- It is equally effective for long-term heavy smokers and light smokers.
- You need not gain weight.
- You will not miss smoking.
