Well I smoked for 30 years,went with a friend who was trying to quit(so she didn't have to drive in a big city).She was back smoking in 3 weeks but I haven't smoked now in over a year!Everyone in my family smokes,2 months after being hypnotised I went home for a 2 week visit.lol Everyone where I live just knew when I got home I'd be smoking again.I surprised everyone including myself,I would have never thought it would've worked but it did. It is really just another tool for us to use.
Good Luck!

I've tried individual hypnosis and a group session. The inividual session did work for about 8 months, but I should have had a follow-up session and gave into temptation. (all my friends smoked at the time, so it was really hard at times). The group session didn't do anything for me and I thought it was a rip-off. I did try the old Schick stop-smoking program - the one where they shock you and other nasty stuff. It worked - for 2 years I never picked up a cigarette. I think my problem is I really like to smoke, and you have to have your mind set to never smoke again. Even when I quit for the 2 years, I still wanted a cigarette whenever I smelled somebody else smoking one. Just kept telling myself there was no way I wanted to go through the shock sessions again. ;-) Worked for a while, anyway. Good luck to you with quitting!

Hypnosis is a very unique experience, and whether or not it works depends entirely on the individual. Some are more suggestible than others. So it works well for some, and not at all for others. The only way to know if it will work for you is to try it.

It works for some people. For every method of quitting smoking there is someone that it does not work for. But, if you are serious about quitting, you will try every possible method until you find one that works for you.

I have a hard time understanding why people can't just summon up the will power to quit... I didn't have any problem quitting any drug ive ever consumed. I just think your falling back on the "addiction" excuse cause you dont really want to quit.

Partly. It gives you the suggestion to keep trying... you have to get accupuncture to assist your autonomic nervous sytem to reduce your cravings as well. You also have to find supplements that have been shown to reduce addictions.
