"Quitting smoking is easy. I've done it a thousand times." -Mark Twain
Quitting smoking is a challenging pursuit. You know it's not good for you and that it's becoming less and less socially acceptable, yet it doesn't seem to make it any easier to kick the habit. It can be very discouraging to give in to the habit after a few days (or a few hours!) only to have to start all over again at a later date. You may be letting down your children or your spouse at every failed attempt - it feels awful to disappoint the ones you love, let alone yourself.
Luckily there is an array of tools available to help you in the arduous process of quitting. These tools can give you a better winning chance at removing the grip that smoking has on your life. Based on research, the success rates for different quitting methods after one year are as follows:
- "Cold Turkey" - 5%
- Nicotine Replacement Products (gum, patches, etc.) - 15%
- Prescription Drugs (Zyban and Chantix) - 22-30%
- Prescription Drugs combined with Nicotine Replacement Products - 36%
Hypnosis, however, has a success rate of 66% based on a four session protocol. There is no other method supported by research with this kind of success rate. Also, there are no side-effects like those accompanied by prescription drugs and nicotine replacements. Just think about how empowering it would be to quit smoking for good using the power of your own mind!
