I'm considering using these to guys to help me quit the evil weed (cigarettes & puff)


I've tried Alan Carr which was good for 6months then i got a bit too confident etc....

Tried Alan Carr again alas made no difference at all that time, another few years later a read his book

and stay off the weed for a week. I love and hate smoking but for sure i need to quit.


Anyway, just wondering if anyone had any experiences with them?

I have read their testimonials, but for sure it's all a rosy picture.

Speak to your doctor Pearson. I understand that there's lots of drugs you can get nowadays to soften the blow. I've had friends who have been heavy smokers but gave up with help from their doctors. I know nothing about dune hypotherapy.


Good on you for wanting to quit. Big mistake to think you can be a social smoker after a few months - don't fall into that trap again. I have up for a year once and then started to smoke again - duh!


Best of luck.

Thanks Giggirl,


Yeah, i've though about going to my GP but a few friends have tried the drugs they give you and to be honest they sound truly awful (sleep/ bad dreams etc) not that i'm not prepared to go through that if it works! Which it did of course for one of my friends.


I guess i'm looking for a quick fix in the way that Alan Car did way back when.

It was amazing. I'm also curious to know the difference between the two methods.

I half suspect the Hypno is much the same as alan car. In which case i shall definitely

go the GP route.

my other half kicked the cigs (as have a few of my friends) by using champix, you get it from boots and its circa ?7 a fortnight or you pay ?30 upfront and you get it half price. Ive never used a hypno before so cant advise but wanted to let you know of another option before you go and hand over a wad of cash..

Hi,


I third what has been said about the GP, mine laughed when I asked about the reported side effects.

"(sleep/ bad dreams etc)"

IMO that part comes from quitting the herbs, not the Champix. Some folk will tell you there have been x thousand Champix related suicides as well, but I think they have been spammed by nicorette.

    • https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.          
    • Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
