Thankyou For Helping Me Stop Smoking!

I'd started smoking during university, just socially to start with but it quickly snook up on me. I was a bit of a flakey smoker, sometimes smoking 10 a day, sometimes going aweek without, but something always kept dragging me back. A couple years ago I started a new job and wanted to quit but I'd tried everything and nothing worked. I tried patches and gums etc but didn't have any luck. A friend of work gave me his details and said that hypnosis had worked for them. I was a bit sceptical and forgot about it for a while but then I heard him chatting on LBC and that kick started me to take the plunge and make the phone call. I'd tried everything else so did have a bit of a 'what do I have to lose' mentality.

The actual session lasted just over an hour, with a bit of a chat firstly, he asked me a bunch of questions about my smoking and why I wanted to quit etc, he took some time to understand my habit which wasn't the most 'normal' habit. When I went into hypnosis it was an interesting experience, I didn't fall asleep like on TV or anything, it was more like a very relaxed daydream. To be honest, although I came out of the session super relaxed I wasn't 100% sure if it had actually worked but thought i would give it a bit of time, and there was always the fololw up if I needed it.

But I got to dinner, went out with some friends and I didn't even think about going to the shop to buy any smokes. Same thing the next morning with my coffee, which even as a flakey smoker I always enjoyed a ciggy with my coffee. I was worried about going on holiday with some smoking friends but I just emailed him and he was really lovely and helpful and gave me some tips to help me out, and I wasn't even tempted. It's been a few months now and I still haven't had a cigarette. I couldn't believe it and still can't, but I've got to thank him for helping me beat this smoking habit!! Thank you!!!
