Prior to this quit I have tried everything known to man or offered by them to quit. About the only thing I hadn't tried is to sew my lips shut and super glue small sized screens to the bottom of my nasal passeges to prevent me from using my mouth & nose to smoke. The other day a thread popped up and a member was asking about hypnotism. I did try that method of malarkey once. It happened like this..........
I enrolled in this session at a cost around $50.00 US. I never counted just how many signed up but there was a bunch of nervous addcits there. Just prior to the magic moment the we were asked to go ourside and puff a couple for the very last time. Since we had been there close to an hour listening to the guru explain the whole show to us there wasn't a one of us who wasn't exhibiting outward signs of withdrawal. As we file back in , one at a time, there was a trash can there and we were asked to place our packs of cigarettes in the trash can because we would not need them anymore. Now, to an addict, this was like spilling out a canteen of water in the middle of the desert at noon. Besides, all addicts know there is no such thing quitting with a full pack or a whole carton. We planned better than that. We were conservative junkies.
So this guy proceeded to put his magic spell on The group I could tell right off the bat this wasn't going ot work for me and I would be collecting my fifty dollar bill back as I filed out when the show was over. When he was finished he asked how we felt. I raised my hand and asked for my money back because of the 100% guarantee I would stop smoking. He argued a bit with me until I went to the trash can and retrieved my pack and promptly ignited 3 of the little devils and smoked them right there. He had no arguement and refunded my money. I thanked him for being a man committed to his word, shook his hand and bent over and grabbed the plastic liner from the trash can! I through the plactic liner filled with cig packs over my shoulder and walked out the door like Santa Claus carrying his toy bag. I was
followed by a half dozen or so hypnotized addicts wanting their partially empty packs back from the trash bag.
Oh Yes, this actually happened because I am an addcit!
