Whats the best way to quit smoking? -
Go to a lung cancer ward and check out what you might have to deal with if you don-t quit ....
I know that smoking is a huge addictive habit, but PLEASE try ... no matter what it takes ... I lost my mom to lung cancer and it wasn-t pretty!!
Hypnotism
I have quit before by just throwing the out and then having pretzel sticks around to hold and suck on ....sadly I started back up after four years.
The best way to quit smoking is to simply stop cold turkey. You will feel a little sick from the nicotine withdrawl, but if you cut down little by little, it-s only tempting to have more. My boyfriend used to smoke two packs a day, and just quit. It-s great that you are making the decisions to quit- smoking is so harmful to your health... you-ll thank yourself in your later years when you-re not hacking and dying because of cigaretts! Get a good support system, and try not to be around it. Don-t even buy yourself cigaretts. It will be very hard, but you can do it. Good luck!
I-M STILL TRYING TO FIND OUT
You can try Free and Clear. They have coaches and stuff and cen help you out. I quit smoking 3 months ago with them. It-s been so much better. I smoked for 14 yrs and I feel alot better now. It-s a great feeling to be free of the habit.
the best way is to Quit not just think your going to you have to commit to quiting I did 10 years ago and it still haunts me but I WONT give in it was making me sick and when I finnaly listened to my body I QUIT It wasnt easy but if I can quit after 2paks a day for 27 years anywon can just hang in there and you can do it chew gum go for a walk pelland eat apples I dont care what you do but you have to break the physical than the chemiacl addiation or viseversa but it worked for me I wish you luck be careful of second hand smoke it will trigger your urges and make you weak and want to smoke the stuff is nasty but you can do it
Cold turkey.
Theres a book, alan carrs book, think his name is, he got my dad to quite 5 years ago, its been great for him.
If you only slow it down, you-ll keep craving it, the more you have the more you want.
Find something else to keep you busy.
This method works for me and is the only money back guaranteed.

Get the Facts
Easyway, founded by Allen Carr in 1983, has the highest independently verified 12-month success rate (75.8% for a smoker completing the program) of any quit smoking technique and a 90% satisfaction rating.
Compare Easyway to other methods and see for yourself why Easyway is called “The Cadillac of quit smoking methods.”
The Allen Carr Method
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 fears
Smokers 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.
Medical Endorsements
A personal view from Professor Judith Mackay MBE, JP, FRCO (Edin), FRCP (Lon), World Health Organisation Advisory Panel on Tobacco and Health
“I have no hesitation in supporting Allen Carr’s work. Many clinics use some of his techniques but it would appear that few do it in quite such a successful package.”
Carole Johnson, Coronary Heart Disease Prevention Unit, Tyne Tees
“his success rate was such that, when budgets allow, we continue to use Easyway for work with specific groups and individuals.”
Dr Anil Visa BSc, MBBch., FRCA, Consultant – Royal Hospitals NHS Trust – Royal London Hospital
“I have observed the Allen Carr method at first hand and have found it to be very successful and I wholeheartedly support it as an effective way to quit smoking.”
Dr William Green, Head of Psychiatric Dept, Matilda Hospital, Hong Kong
“It is a remarkable fact that Allen Carr, on his own admission a non-professional in behaviour modification, should have succeeded where countless psychologists and psychiatrists holding postgraduate qualifications have failed, in formulating a simple and effective way to stop smoking.”
Dr Martin Jarvis, Principle Scientist, Imperial Cancer Research
Fund and Reader in Health Psychology, University College London
”...I am more than happy to testify to Allen Carr’s enduring involvement and to recognise the value of the kind of behavioural and cognitive support he provides.”
Dr PM Bray MB CH.b., MRCGP
“I was really impressed by the method. In spite of the Allen Carr organisation’s success and fame, there were no gimmicks and the professional approach was something a GP could readily respect. I would be happy to give a medical endorsement of the method to anyone.”

-His method is absolutely unique, removing the dependence on cigarettes, while you are actually smoking. I’m pleased to say it has worked for many of my friends and staff.”
Sir Richard Branson
“Some friends of mine who had stopped using Allen Carr’s method suggested I tried it. I did. It was such a revelation that instantly I was freed from my addiction. Like those friends of mine, I found it not only easy but unbelievably enjoyable to stay stopped.”
Sir Anthony Hopkins
GOOD LUCK
I smoked for 45 ys. My grandson was born and I decided to quit. You have to really want to quit,no playing games. I put the money I would have spent on a carton in a plate on the coffee table and continued to do this until I had enough for a beautiful pair of boots. No one was allowed to touch this money, nor did I remove it from the plate. When I looked at it, I realized this money would have gone up in smoke. After my second pair of boots I didn-t need to do this any longer. The key is Reward Yourself!
