I stopped on Saturday night cold turkey after reading Alan Carr’s Easyway to stop smoking.
He says it’s better to have no substitutes which I can see where he is coming from but since this morning I’ve been panicking that I can’t cope with giving up although I am determined to give up. I now it sounds like a contradiction.
Any help would greatly be appreciated and what you think.

I think there are advantages to both methods but the ultimate decision is yours. I suggest you take a piece of paper and write down the pros and cons to each. Good luck🍀xx
I’m currently reading the same book. But I’ve read it twice, as I did not feel I gained a proper understanding. I’m going to stop as soon as I finish the book (following his tip, haha), so let me know how your progress goes. All the best!
