I tried the hypnosis and it did not work. So I said "damn it" I'm going to quick cold turkey and after 4 weeks I never went back. It's been 12 or 13 years now and I'm cured. Cold turkey is the only way. Don't waste your money on Hypnosis or those fake things. Once you make your mind up ghoul on your way. I wish I could lose weight like I quit smoking. No such luck.

@A MyCOPDTeam Member , @A MyCOPDTeam Member - I still get a quick wave of feeling that I must sit down and take a quick drag on - - - - then I realize that I no longer smoke! does it never go away? I really think that is the hardest part of really quitting- realizing that you MUST. Otherwise it will not happen.

I did a number of years ago and it was a real disappointment. Maybe my hypnotist. Of course leaving a 1/2 pack of cigs in the car did not help. Face it, people - YOU HAVE TO WANT TO QUIT and all the crutches in the world will not replace that element!.

cut up licorice and put them in a hard pack of a cig box, and chew away the crave!

I think if you believe it can help you it will. I only knew one person who tried it and it didn't help them. It is difficult but possible. I took a drink of water every time I craved a cigarette followed by a mint, an m&m or a piece of gum. It helped me and I haven't had a cigarette sine Sept 2009. Good luck. You can do it too...
