Tried hypnotherapy with 2 different practitioners and neither did the slightest good. In fact, after seeing the 2nd one, i had a burning desire for mcDonalds?????

However, a friend of mine gave up smoking with a mix of hypnotherapy and NLP. One session, Ł180.00, but he could go back wheneve he wanted without paying more and it worked for him.

CBT is only about giving yourself dfferent cues in your mind and building up a different pattern.

Good luck with whatever approach you try, what works for one doesn't for another so just keep giving it a go.
