I'm just about to go through a day off psychotherapy and hypnotherapy to stop smoking! I'm doing an Allen Carr all-day. seminar.

I've never tried to quit before, never really wanted to tbqh. I'm ready though, I've had enough of this monkey on my back and am determined to stop!

Best of luck Charlie.

My husband gave up after being a long term heavy smoker. He went to our GP surgery. They do smoking cessation 1-1 sessions. He was put on Champix tablets....at the end of a 6 week course of these he had finished smoking completely.... However ...he now uses electronic cigarettes! .Shame really because he went 12 months without touching a cigarette at all

Anyway...'Have a Nice Day'...Bouncy

Haha, me the usual on edge - nervous - sometimes snappy of the two of us, is quite chilled. My gf on the other hand, is chomping at the bit 😂 and very annoyed they didn't tell us it's £10 for the parking...

We're just waiting for the late attendees (therapist included) due to works on the underground to turn up, so I'm using it to zone out whilst surfing the interwebzzzz 😁😛

I'm very optimistic, nay determined it'll work. I'll leave here an ex smoker!

I quit 10 years ago. Couldn't use the pills. Gave me side effects. Had to use the patch. On the box it says 'Requires Will Power', something I didn't think I had, but I did. Hypnotism works for some, but not all. You have to want to quit. Bottom line is if you don't, it will kill you.

Those words ^^^^^ are absolutely true. Very hard to do if you haven't got that mindset. It doesn't matter if anyone tells you 'you should quit'. We know that. You have to want to....

For a second there I thought you meant Alan Carr. An entire day's seminar with him and it would be enough for anyone tongue
