Hypnotherapy has a 66% success rate of individuals who successful quit smoking. The first time I heard of being hypnotized to quit smoking was years ago while working for Hibernia Bank. I was having lunch with one of my co-workers when I noticed she did not light up after her meal.

I lit my cigarettte, and asked her if she had quit smoking? Indeed she had. She stated I was hypotized to quit smoking. I said hypnotized! I really did not believe it. She stated "not only have I  quit smoking, but I do not crave cigarettes". I did not try being hypnotized because I did not want to stop smoking back then.

To stop smoking being hypnotized is just one way to quit smoking.

Quit smoking the old fashion way -- cold turkey. No doubt about it trying to quit is hard. It took me years to make up my mind to quit smoking. The menthol flavor had me in it clutches very strongly.

One day the cigarette smell started to get to me. UGH! The time to quit smoking was approaching, and I knew it. I continued to ignore the smell and kept right on puffing. In the good old days folks could quit smoking cold turkey. What happened? Have the percentage of nicotine in cigarettes increased? I once had a conversation with a fellow ex-smoker who said "I could not have quit without nicorette, but I am glad I did".
