Allen Carr's Easy Way to Quit Smoking Without Willpower - Includes Quit Vaping: The Best-selling Quit Smoking Method Updated for the 2020s Paperback – September 30, 2020

It really works when the teachings are able to sink it. I first got this book in May of 2023 because at that time, after trying to stop drinking for years, my cousin died out the blue from cirrhosis and my whole want and taste for alcohol left my body and mind. I quit immediately and have not ever craved again after drinking hard liquor daily for years. I wanted to quit smoking too because I know that both of these addictions were killing me and doing nothing positive for me. I researched self help books and found this one. I started reading and read a few chapters and then put it down. But those initial reverse brain-washing teachings tauggt in the book were still heavy in my mind. They were working in my subconscious. I hated cigarettes but I also thought I "loved" them. I had to smoke first thing in the morning "to start my day off", which only helped to drain my energy and in essence, ruin my whole day. I would be so ready to seize the day until I smoke a cigarette. After eating, after exercise, after and before everything, I needed to smoke. Nothing was complete or good enough until I smoked a cigarette. But it actually just ruined those moments. I was tired of the cigarettes controlling everything about my life. My mind was always thinking about and planning for the next cigarette. First I purchased some patches and lozenges because I started with the government quit help challenges and they suggest substitutes to help you quit smoking but recognize that it is the Nicotine that your addicted to, not the act of smoking. If you wrapped anything besides tobacco and Nicotine in cigarette paper, you wouldn't want to light it up and suck carbon monixide into your lungs. It's the Nicotine addiction. The reverse brain washing continues to work in the background. Number one, cigarettes do absolutely nothing for you. They don't help you relax ..they actually make you more anxious. They don't make you happy, feel good, nothing! It's all in our minds. The only thing it does is take the monkey off ur back for a few seconds that the last cigarette caused. It's the addiction to Nicotine that causes the so called good and the bad. The book helps you to recognize the truth. Just read or listen to the book. If you can open ur mind and allow the reverse brain washing to take place... since currently we are brain washed by the Nicotine, thinking it actually does something for us, it doesn't! This book may help you and it may not. But today, I am a non smoker since June 23rd 2024. Over a month. I put tissue in a cut down straw and mimmicked cigarette smoking and I did the Nicotine patch for a few days to help me with the habit part...smoking in the morning,after meals, after sex...it helped. Then on that 4th day or so, I felt the patch poisoning me! I ripped it off a half hour after putting on and haven't had the urge for nicotine since that morning. A month without nicotine. The teachings of this book finally got it...reconciled with my mind and body and I AM FREE NOW!!! I AM SO HAPPY TODAY! I don't have to smoke anymore nor do I want to. No urges. I am now reading the book again and almost to the end. I will reread it too to seal the truth in my mind that smoking does absolutely nothing for you but make you stink. I recommend that everyone get this book if you need help quitting smoking, vaping, Nicotine. To note, I am a 49 yo, blackish woman, who has smoked mostly on and off since I was 17. 30 plus years. It really was easy to quit this time. Whoopie!!! I am free!!! And I smell good!

I’ve quit with the nicotine patch, gum and vaping where I weaned myself off of nicotine completely. But 2 years later I started smoking cigarettes again. Skip to a few years later, I cracked a tooth that couldn’t be saved and now required a dental implant so I’ve found myself in a precarious situation…quit smoking or risk that the implant won’t take to the bone. I decided it was time to quit for good so I started listening to this program. I’m now on my second day of no smoking and it’s soooo much easier than I thought it would be! This program is the easiest way I’ve ever quit. It’s just different and it gives a whole new perspective without judgement. I liked that you can smoke as you work your way through it too. When it came time for my final cigarette I smoked it before I went to bed. I would recommend doing it this way so when you wake up you’ve got a few hours under your belt of being smoke free and I believe at this point a large percentage of the nicotine in your body is gone. I haven’t been moody, short tempered, in fact, I’ve been feeling just as it is described in the book. It’s funny too because I thought it wouldn’t work for me, I was panicking toward the end and I really am surprised to find that I had nothing to worry about. It worked and I’m fine! Nothing bad will happen to you from completing this program!

First time I stumbled upon this book was in 2010. At that time I was a two-pack a day smoker for 15 years. The booked helped then, and I was able to kick my nicotine habit until 2022. That was when due to my own stupidity I got into vaping.When I understood that I simply tricked my mind into returning back to my old addiction I decided to re-read the book. I didn't have the paper copy of my old book anymore. I thought I would never need it again and gave it away to a friend who was trying to quit (He did quit, by the way). So I decided to get this updated electronic version instead. It worked great! I am currently nicotine free for 8 months and have no cravings at all. This book costs about the same as a pack of cigarettes or a vaping pen. All you need to do is read and pay attention. The book will help you to reprogram your brain and you will become a non-smoker. By the way, you can continue smoking while reading the book. In fact the author even recommends that. After you finish the book, you smoke your last cigarette/vape and that's it. You are free from you addiction. It is indeed easy. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain. Give it a shot!

Have been a long time vape user for 10 years or so. This book has helped me quit immediately after finishing reading it. No side effects, no withdrawals. All as advertised and it worked perfectly. The book is heavily detailed albeit a bit repetitive, but that is actually a good thing. You want the repetition to ingrain in your mind and truly believe what is written in front of you. Would recommend this to anyone, has even helped my brother quit as well. Trust me, this book is no joke and it actually works.

This book has been helping me as I work my program.

In two days, I read this book cover to cover. I started vaping in 2018 and became a happy non-smoker in 2024. I had never tried quitting vaping, since I started out of fear of dealing with nicotine withdrawals. Allen Carr’s Easyway has made it easy and painless.

Great!

I had smoked for almost 40 years, I have never tried to quit before. I decided to quit before I turned 55 and was told this book worked. It took me 4 days to read, I did slow it down lol. I will admit I did not think it would work even up to the end of the book. But I smoked my last cigarette and have not had a craving since. I do believe its brainwashing but whatever it worked for me and my husband, he did have a couple irritable days after. I still cant believe it. I am writing this review now because we are coming up to year of not smoking and its all because of this book. Still unbelievable to me and anyone who knows me lol

I'd recommend this book to anyone who ever unsuccessfully tried to quit smoking.It was my case. And the book did work for me.Two weeks have passed since I lit my last cigarette and no cravings have occurred to me.Besides all of that, the book is easy to read.

An amazing book full of inspiration and insight into the (miserable)life of a smoker.today is my first day, but I'm sure I'll never smoke again

It's like a holy book for smokers and any type of addict, it helps you to open your eyes like any holy book with facts and examples. I am very grateful for the atomic habit to tell about this book and very grateful to Allen Carr who opened my eyes by writing this book.
