Psychology approach to change the habit of smoking

Can't fault the psychology here and the recommendations on how to stop smoking. Covers things like examining social cues, habits, triggers etc. which are all very important, especially when examining ways to stop or redirect those cues. Smoking is more than a habit or an addiction. It usually forms after a cue that…

Over 4 years smoke free!

I smoked for 29 years, I tried the patch, vaping, cold turkey, everything, and nothing worked. I finished reading this book 4.5 years ago and haven’t smoked since, in fact I haven’t even craved one. I’ve been in a room full of smokers, I’ve gotten drunk, I lost a loved one, I’ve been through every situation that…

Bought for sister - she's still drinking & smoking.

I wish this book would have worked for her as alcohol is a neurotoxin & nicotine causes cancer.

Worked for me

I was pretty much vaping non stop and did everything I could to make sure I didn’t run out of vapes. I took risks vaping where I shouldn’t. I felt shame and guilt and knew it wasn’t a good look as well as bad for my health. I decided early last year to quit by the end of the year. I heard about this book and ordered…

★☆☆☆☆
Allen Carr did NOT write this book

Allen Carr, while an incredibly successful author, that has helped millions of people quit terrible habits, did not write this book. E-Cigarettes were invented in 2003, and Juul, which is mentioned on the cover, was invented in 2015. While Allen Carr could have written about vaping, he could not have written about…

Allen Carr is the anti-smoking MVP.

This is probably the best quit smoking book I've ever read and I recommend it to others. While it wasn't what ultimately helped me quit, these lessons were burned into my brain and I find myself referencing concepts from the book 15 years after first reading it. Must read for anyone stuck in the most ingenius trap…

Addiction, your demon that drives you

As a wife of a porn addicted husband, the book scared the hell out of me as a woman, mother and wife! For a generation we gave all media industries our childrens' virtue and gave them permission to steal their innocence and personal responsibility; we gave them permission to create porn addicted boys/girls who were…

★☆☆☆☆
Biased and Pseudoscience

Buying this book, I felt deceived that this book came in with a viewpoint that porn addiction is plaguing American society. When I read a social science type book, I expect it to be balanced, thoughtful, and attempt to be inclusive. This book did not do that. It is not sex positive or able to handle the various…

A common criticism
★☆☆☆☆
Decent ideas, but written so badly its unreadable

This book is a great example of someone who isn't an author trying to write a book. It's honestly unreadable, and could've done with a ghostwriter and editor. The ideas outlined in this book aren't bad. It didn't come close to helping me quit, and I kept smoking for two years after reading it. After two years, I…

Update: 5 months - still free - feels like a year since I've vaped because I don't think about it and I don’t miss it. Seems like a distant memory, one that I wish I never started.

READ BEFORE BUYING

If you struggle with mental illness/are not neuro typical, please know that this book is not an end all be all. The statistics are not accurate so if it doesn’t work, it’s not that there’s something wrong with you. Allen Carr uses hypnotherapy in this book and while that works for some people, it does not work for…

Poorly

I failed my exam core 1 and Mike Meyers . He doesnt tell you which section is for core 1 you would have to guess like I did. Too overly descriptive for nothing. Poor layout of the book. Core 1 &2 are scattered everywhere. Your better off buying a book core 1 instead of this poor mess.

Good tax and wealth advice

I think this book has a lot of good information in it beyond basic tax strategy. The problem is the two ideas that I found new and helpful were literally one or two sentences after an entire section of information I was already mostly aware. Still, if I were not a well informed tax and wealth strategy type, I think it…

★☆☆☆☆
Only useful for business owners

If you don’t own a business or plan to start one, don’t waste your time. It’s irrelevant. That, coupled with the long-winded anecdotes from his past, make this a painful read.

Actually a great book if you buy it used

The author does a wonderful job of making his descriptions readable and understandable. His example are wonderful for most people, and he clearly states his book is for those with under $3 million. I do think spending money on an attorney without first reading this book is being wasteful with your money.

Lots of common sense, not a lot of tactics or reasons

For women who tend to be more insecure, blame themselves or don't feel the are worth much, this book is probably very helpful. I was looking for a book that made recommendations, explained why and then provided tactics to do so. This book gives advice, but never the why. For example it recommends no contact or letter…

This book will hold you back from healing.

I honestly feel like there is an underlying message here, that can seems to take away from the recovery of the individual going through the pain of break up. That is, there is hope for the relationship. One example is, “ How to make him miss you”. I purchased this book, as my partner of 6 years ended our…
