It depends, the Allen Carr book everyone recommends tries to make you see that without directly telling you that smoking is disgusting etc.
The thing for me that allowed me to give up was realising and convincing myself that it was possible for the cravings to go away, to feel normal in a pub without smoking etc.
It seemed impossible at some point so I always went back to it before.
- telxosser 5y agoSame for me. I quit for good ten years ago by basically convincing myself it would be easy after so many times trying to quit I lost count. Of course it really wasn't easy but that mindset let me not give in to the cravings. I do think when you internalize quitting as something that is super difficult it just gives ammunition for all those mind games to give in. I was also watching this Navy SEAL buds training at the time and the one guy Travis Lively was using that strategy. Convincing himself that Navy SEAL hell week was really not that bad. I love that guy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aVxhm7jkN0k https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aVxhm7jkN0k
