Get the Facts
Easyway, founded by Allen Carr in 1983, has the highest independently verified 12-month success rate (75.8% for a smoker completing the program) of any quit smoking technique and a 90% satisfaction rating.
Compare Easyway to other methods and see for yourself why Easyway is called “The Cadillac of quit smoking methods.”
The Allen Carr Method
HOW THE METHOD WORKS
Using psychotherapy, the method works in the opposite way to the “willpower” method. It does not concentrate on the reasons the smoker should not smoke : the money, the slavery, the health risks and the stigma. Smokers know all that already. Instead it focuses on why smokers continue to smoke in spite of the obvious disadvantages.
It is fear that keeps smokers hooked!
Fear the smoker will have to give up their pleasure or crutch. Fear the smoker will be unable to enjoy life or handle stress. Fear the smoker will have to go through an awful trauma to get free. Fear the smoker will never get completely free from the craving.
The Method removes these fears
Smokers quit with the Allen Carr Method as happy non-smokers, not feeling deprived but with a huge sense of relief and elation that they have finally achieved what they always wanted….
TO BE FREE!
What about the terrible withdrawal pangs from nicotine?
The physical withdrawal from nicotine is so slight that most smokers don’t realise that they are addicts. What smokers suffer when they try and quit using other methods is the misery and depression caused by the belief that they are being deprived of a pleasure or a crutch.
The Allen Carr Method removes this feeling of deprivation.
It removes the need and desire to smoke. Once the smoker is in the right frame of mind and they follow the simple instructions, the physical withdrawal from nicotine is hardly noticeable.
No Gimmicks!
The Method does not use any gimmicks, useless aids or substitutes. No nicotine gum, patches, lozenges, tabs, inhilators or nasal sprays! No needles! No lasers! No drugs! No herbs! No shock treatment!
The Allen Carr Method is successful because:
It removes the smokers’ conflict of will.
There are no bad withdrawal pangs.
It is instantaneous and easy.
It is equally effective for long-term heavy smokers and light smokers.
You need not gain weight.
You will not miss smoking.
Medical Endorsements
A personal view from Professor Judith Mackay MBE, JP, FRCO (Edin), FRCP (Lon), World Health Organisation Advisory Panel on Tobacco and Health
“I have no hesitation in supporting Allen Carr’s work. Many clinics use some of his techniques but it would appear that few do it in quite such a successful package.”
Carole Johnson, Coronary Heart Disease Prevention Unit, Tyne Tees
“his success rate was such that, when budgets allow, we continue to use Easyway for work with specific groups and individuals.”
Dr Anil Visa BSc, MBBch., FRCA, Consultant – Royal Hospitals NHS Trust – Royal London Hospital
“I have observed the Allen Carr method at first hand and have found it to be very successful and I wholeheartedly support it as an effective way to quit smoking.”
Dr William Green, Head of Psychiatric Dept, Matilda Hospital, Hong Kong
“It is a remarkable fact that Allen Carr, on his own admission a non-professional in behaviour modification, should have succeeded where countless psychologists and psychiatrists holding postgraduate qualifications have failed, in formulating a simple and effective way to stop smoking.”
Dr Martin Jarvis, Principle Scientist, Imperial Cancer Research
Fund and Reader in Health Psychology, University College London
”.I am more than happy to testify to Allen Carr’s enduring involvement and to recognise the value of the kind of behavioural and cognitive support he provides.”
Dr PM Bray MB CH.b., MRCGP
“I was really impressed by the method. In spite of the Allen Carr organisation’s success and fame, there were no gimmicks and the professional approach was something a GP could readily respect. I would be happy to give a medical endorsement of the method to anyone.”
Celebrity Endorsements
"His method is absolutely unique, removing the dependence on cigarettes, while you are actually smoking. I’m pleased to say it has worked for many of my friends and staff.”
Sir Richard Branson
“Some friends of mine who had stopped using Allen Carr’s method suggested I tried it. I did. It was such a revelation that instantly I was freed from my addiction. Like those friends of mine, I found it not only easy but unbelievably enjoyable to stay stopped.”
Sir Anthony Hopkins

yea its an expensive habbit. Find a new habbit to replace it, sometimes that helps. You need a good support network around you too, friends who don't smoke is a good start. Its all a mental thing, so you just have to figure out something to retrain your brain.
Like someone else said, a good support system will help, but also, it has been scientifically proven that if you drink water when you get a craving for the cigarette, you will stop smoking. I don't know how your beliefs are, but God can always help you stop if you allow Him to.
*Edit:
If you have enough will-power, you can do quit using just about any method. Please stop smoking soon. My father died of lung cancer and I wouldn't want your family and friends to have to go through the same thing my family and I have had to (Also, it was tremendously painful for my father and you shouldn't have to go through that for a stupid cigarette).
You just have to DO it! And it has to be for yourself, no one else! You control your destiny, not cigarettes, not nicotine replacements, not spouses or friends or parents or no one. Only you. Pick a date, far in the future, a week, a month, a couple of months, whatever you need, and keep telling yourself you're going to quit on that date. Inform yourself of the facts.that cigarettes contain over 4,000 chemicals, over 40 of those chemicals known to cause cancer, what it does to your arteries, health, bank account, all the damn taxes you pay to smoke, etc.and keep repeating all the negatives to yourself until your quit date. There are many more negatives and you can email me if you want a full list.
Stock up on fruits and fruit juices for your first week of quitting. Then just DO it! Quit and replace all your urges with the juices (grape juice worked for me), the juice will flush the nicotine out of your system and temporarily satisfy your urge. Eat the fruit. I also found that Eclipse gum or one of those other powerfully flavorful gums (not Nicorette or anything) worked wonders. Tastes much better than a cigarette.
After 5 days, your physical addiction will be done and then it's just mental. You have to be strong. Remember.Every craving resisted strengthens your will.
It's been a month for me and still going strong. Determined to win out over the damn tobacco industry. They will not dictate that I have to run out in a storm to pick up a pack of smokes, even when I don't feel like going out. Cold turkey. If you can go three weeks, you can go a lifetime. Replace it with exercise and taking care of yourself. Will power. DO it!
Good luck!

A knowledge of almost every fact ever written on the subject, weeded down to what's important.
I am not going to sit here and lecture you that you could die from smoking..I quit 11 weeks ago after smoking for over 20 years. I just woke up one day and said enough is enough, I used the patch for 5 days(hated the way it made me feel) and have not had one since, many urges to have them but have not, walked away and told myself that I am keeping the promise I made to my girl scout troop and my own children. In the back of my mind, I have the fact that a very close friend died over a year ago from lung cancer, she was the mother to three boys, now they are young adults but their lives have changed so much that it is scary, we shared the same birthday and my present to her this year was the fact that I quit smoking. I wish you luck and now that it is a hard road and you have to do it cause you want to do it, not because someone is making you do it, look deep inside and find the reason's why you should, type them out, cary them with you and go from there, each day or hour without one adds to your life.
get in touch with your local American Lung Association to find the nearest 8 week stop smoking support group. it is proven to be more successful when used WITH the other methods like the patch. it takes u thru the steps needed to get ready, get set, and STOP smoking. just like alcoholics and drug addiction, u need help and support to successfully quit. www.lungusa.org
