Allen Carr said he was the world's worst smoker. I cannot steal that title from him but when it comes to stopping and starting, then maybe I could take the Bronze?
I began smoking at age 26. Duh! For all the reasons I had evaded it as a more sensible teenager. I was with a gang of people who all smoked and poor little me was missing out from all the benefits those fags appeared to give them.
After being a "casual" smoker for a few weeks, one night I was driven out to buy a packet of my own. This was it! What followed was a nightmare 30 years of trying to stop. I was always hugely ashamed to be a smoker. I knew it was poison. No sooner had I started than I desperately wanted to stop this foul addiction. If only it were that easy.
There are many who can make up their mind to quit and do it. Then there are the ditherers like myself who retain such a strong psychological attatchment to their cigs, that they are drawn back again and again as a moth to a flame.
I had read Allen Carr's Only Way some years ago and given up for 3 years!
Yes folks, this dumbo started again after a night at a club on a blind date. How nice it would be to have "just one"! Doh.
So I have been giving up since starting. I still retained a fantasy that I could smoke only on Friday nights. This I did, but surely it crept into my week too. In short if it was there I had to smoke it.
I cannot tell you how many packets of nicotine have been run under the tap in a bid to stop me smoking. What happened? I would just go out and buy more and then have to destroy that packet after a couple of roll ups.
I have cried. I have prayed. From somewhere came the courage to attempt another quit. I had already stopped for a few days when the book came.
Let's just say it absolutely put the final nail in the coffin of my illusions about nicotine. Yes I do have the odd fleeting desire to light up, but now I just let it go for what it is. A fleeting desire. In the past I would have hot footed it up to the off licensce to buy some tobacco.
So do please buy the book. I hope my words have helped in some way. Being free of smoking is a true blessing. Let's face it this government have made it impossible to enjoy a ciggie! That makes me angry too - but I shall save that story for another day!!!! Good luck ladies.
I am updating my review to let you know that I am now 2 years free of smoking since I purchased this book. I never crave a cigarette anymore and it truly is wonderful to be living my life without this horrible addiction. Please don't think it took two years to get to this positive state of affairs. It really only takes a few weeks for the physical craving to go, after that it is all psychological and we do have the resources within us to see the cravings in a true light.
Once again, please do have another try..........you can do it! All the best. :)

Twenty-two years as a heavy smoker; about half that on forty-fifty roll-ups a day. Now I don't smoke, and haven't for over four months. This book is AMAZING, its method so easy (just as it claims). I'm the last person to run for self-help books - you'll never find me reading tomes about women who love too much or men who ought to stay in their rooms - but this was recommended to me and I am so, so glad I took the advice. Oh, and girls: I haven't put on weight! One tip: read the book in one hit if you can; I did that, and I think that helps with its cumulative method. It's a very short book and you can smoke while you read, so you shouldn't find too much difficulty in doing it like that. I'd wish you luck, but you won't need it.

I would like to start by saying that I am the worlds biggest sceptic, but desperate times call for desperate measures. I was desperate to stop smoking so I first read this book having been recommended it by a friend. I eagerly completed the book but found that I could not stop smoking, I cannot tell you how disappointed I was, as I have tried just about everything on the market to stop smoking (patches, zyban, gum, hypnosis, microtabs and inhalators). Anyway call me determined or just plain stupid, but I decided I was not going to be beaten. I was convinced that this book could work form me. I decided to read it again and two weeks later I did just that. This time I took time to absorb and digest the information. I also questioned all the arguments Mr Carr gives for stopping. The result, I am thrilled to say, is that I have been nicotine free for 5 weeks and feel absolutely no desire to smoke again. Smoking a cigarette seems completely ludicrous and I no longer resent my husband for smoking, I just pity him. Please give yourself the chance to be free and read this book. Also amazing is that I have not eaten a single sweet or chewed any gum since stopping and have not gained any weight, but I have gained masses of energy and huge amounts of patience ( my kids are eternally grateful). It worked for me - It can work for you - What have you got to lose?
