Just finished his book on emotional eating. The method really works for any form of addiction.
😂shoot heroine for 15 years then tell me bout ur stupid book.
To all the haters in the comments...Read the book. It does work.
It works it works it works ❤ I will love you forever Allan Carr. Thanks Nikki for sharing 😊 ❤️
It works. Period
I read the book about quitting drinking after I heard Nikki talk about iron Rogan. I was pretty pumped for awhile, then I feel off the wagon.
Thanks for the motivation.The world needed this.
Same..jr podcast. Sorry it didn’t work for you. Keep trying though. 😊
Quitting a substance or behaviour takes time. Celebrate small victories & take time to reflect on any progress made.
One of the things that hit home during my 3 month stay in rehab was a definition of the term relapse.
- A lapse is a mistake - short term, one-off accident in a moment of weakness. Use it, analyze it, and utilize that learning experience to prolong your sobriety even further next time.
- relapse is total regression to past behaviour. relapse is giving up.
Forgive yourself for lapsing, and use it as ammo to prevent relapse.
Does Alan Carr have a book to help get off Xanax? 9 years 😞
@@nostalgiaman6816 you need more than a single book, my friend. you’re in deep - i know how you feel.
try reaching out to some community services. see a pysch if you can. go to na meetings - i had no idea how valuable they were til i started going during rehab.
you’re a valuable person, mate. addict fam has to stick together ♥️
I read the book based on Nikki’s appearance on Rogan. It’s a good book based on what Nikki said. I am sceptical about withdrawal symptoms because people have died specifically from alcohol withdrawal
Allen carr. For those comments below. U can find the book at Waterstones. Or w.h Smith.
Allan Carr is the best! Don’t question it just do it
I read Allen Carr''s book easy way to stop smoking even though I didn't smoke and I found it fascinating. I had only picked it up in the store to confirm it had to be rubbish but changed my mind very quickly.
It inspired me to write some poems about it which I sent to Allen Carr when he was alive. Here is an example.
The Worstest One
The strongest, most powerful worstest fear of all
Is the one where what you fear is actually nothing at all
The fear that is generated out of thin air
Is the one of which you must be the most beware
For if you don't know what it is, that leaves you trembling weak
How can you overcome it, you don't know where it sleeps
Your enemy is invisible, elusive and adept
At not allowing you, to know where it is kept
You search in every corner, every nook and cranny
But not a trace do you find, for it is far too canny
You cannot get a single glimpse, but you certainly feel its power
It has you where it wants you, in a perpetual cower
There must be a way of conquering this evil freak
Of stopping it from causing all the havoc that it wreaks
And if you are so lucky as to find out what it is
Can you please, please tell me, you really are a whiz
This is such a great poem. I teared up
Book name?
Allen Carr’s Easy Way to Quit ______
I do agree that cigarettes have been the one drug that's been the least addictive to me.
Like having to stop or cut back on opiates or benzos- so hard.
ciggs, eh. It's however hard your mind makes it bc your muscles ain't gonna hurt.
Show me a book to give up Xanax. Totally different animal. 9 years and can’t get off.
Just want to stop
Reddit has helped me a lot through adivan withdrawal 🙂
@@crybaby3710 what is the name of the page?
@@nostalgiaman6816 /benzowithdrawal
@@crybaby3710 thank you
Ik she's saying in the grand picture nicotine is less bad than other things but some people say "opioid withdrawal is like the flu" so people understate alot of the reality for certain individuals as well. Apparently she didn't get any withdrawal from drinking either so maybe she's lucky but as long as you're not a booze bag it's usually more mental
I've read the book 6 times. Doesn't work.
fyi | Titles of the books - by author Allen Carr - noted in this interview, are inclusive of the following:
1. 'Stop Drinking Now'
2. 'Allen Carr's Easy Way to Stop Smoking'
@textme-3680 thank god you commented that arrow to the comment we already read before we saw your comment 🙏
Quitting nicotine is silly compared to opioids/alcohol. Everyone has there own perspective on it but also opioids and true alcoholism addictions are fucking incredibly hard and painful journey to quit, downplaying it is frustrating. Idk
The book isn't for people with chronic alcoholism. It is for social drinkers who find they have 1 too many at parties or have unhealthy habits. If you have severe alcoholism you need to go to AA and check into rehab because cutting alcohol if you're dependent is very dangerous for your nervous system.
Can’t find the book can some one spell it I may be typing it incorrectly
"Stop Drinking Now"
❤️
My dad won’t quit smoking…I’m an addict/alcoholic clean and sober from cocaine, heroin, and liquor for 2.5 years. He still asks me to run get him a pack of cigarettes and I say can you go get me an 8 ball and a half gallon then he shuts up
Chris cannot let Nikkers get beaten down. Simple enough?
Nicotine is hard to quit because its so available... If you had to go pick it up at a hardware store next to the bug killer and rat killer... you wouldnt be so stoked to smoke it or chew it... but these pretty packages make it so easy to smoke... Remember it wasnt the government who told you that smoking was a good way to relax... that was the tobacco companies lying thru their teeth.
It is the government who still allows the sale of them when we now know how much damage they cause society in so many ways.
@@freshfreenlovinit So you want to make tobacco illegal? What penalties? You realize you are creating a whole new criminal element?
I am a former smoker. It was not easy to quit. I did it cold turkey. It took me 2 times... I quit in 1986... and started up again in 1999... I quit again in 2012... They are bad for sme peoples health, but not everyone... I do not like them and wish everyone would quit... but that is what I would want... I cannot imagine putting someone in jail for cigarettes... Who would pay for the new courts? The new judges? The new smoking cops? Do you also feel the same way about alcohol?
@@drmorqWarrenProject stopping the sale of tobacco from the shops would dramatically reduce the level of smoking and from there it would die a natural death. In Australia they used to sell a product called bex powders. They got rid of it some years ago. No-one misses it.
@@freshfreenlovinit is tobacco illegal in Australia?
What other substances or practices do you think should be made illegal? Here in the US... we have people who want top make all religions illegal except christianity.... Do you agree with those types of new laws?
@@drmorqWarrenProject your question has an aggressive tone almost as if because I want one thing made illegal then I want many things made illegal. Cigarettes are one of the most damaging products we have. Most alcoholics and drug addicts are also smokers. If cigarettes were to go, I believe alcoholism and drug addiction numbers would drop significantly. That is my opinion, you do not have to agree.
Great info, these are some good reminders, part of increasing your mental clarity and boosting your drive, comes with quitting. Yes, there are many ways to quit, Steffon Barkload's Quit Drinking Forever is what worked for me, best shortcut I go’ogled that took days to make me dislike the juice 100%
As a precaution, isolate yourself for three days to endure any irritability and have lots of ready food.
It takes all your willpower and you get frustrated with people around you who are not making the effort to improve themselves, just repeating as easily breakable habits. Everybody has some thing to change…
I think its important to recognize that not everyone can do the sudden cold-turkey quit method you’re referring to.
Quitting a substance or behaviour takes time. Celebrate small victories & take time to reflect on any progress made.

Wtf did you just say?
Anyone can validate the book works lol
This is the type of girl that always tries to show you how smart she is on the date.
you got that from 2 minutes of her answering a question?
Don’t really get that vibe. She just likes to hear herself talk. And doesn’t care that the other person might be bored
Well. She is the one getting interviewed
she is the one being interviewed.............
The way this lady talks about addiction makes me a bit angry. Credit to her for giving up cigarettes but i dont get the feeling she really understands addiction
U read the book she suggested then u too wl quit instantaneously. It worked for me.
wu tang...
She is very hot, not gonna lie. Not a top comic but certainly good "garnish"
She not really hot, shes F-able.
Nah she’s definitely broken
@@Mpayne1472 she does not seem to have any broken legs or anything
Why is this sloar even on this show?
Graham really has a crush.
Wow i never knew she was an addict.
Shoutout to my addict brothers & sisters. Fuck i miss heroin.
No you don’t. Stay strong 💪🏼
@@benbrenizer7712 cheers mate (: appreciate that
I don’t miss it, but I know what you mean. The lizard brain misses it.
Sometimes when I handle tinfoil, or smell certain vinegary spiced things, or other random smells, it viscerally takes me right back. Even though I don’t want it, after six years away from the stuff, my body hasn’t forgotten.
@@Luschan yeah, exactly. sometimes i hear a certain song and it transports me right back. Its been 2.5 years for me. Congrats on your 6 years (:
You got this!!! Stay strong 🫶🏼
Allan Carr is the best! Don’t question it just do it
