I have been smoking for over 40 plus years. I have COPD and was using a nebulizer I could barely get from my bed into the living room to use my nebulizer. So on January 21 of this year I got hypnotized for$150.00 over the phone with zoom and I have not picked up a cigarette since then. I have had no bad cravings no withdrawal or anything. I don't have to use my nebulizer anymore. I have gotten a lot better. My breathing has improved everything is good. I have had a thought or two about smoking. But I would never pick one up again. Cause I will never make it this far again. I am very thankful for this.

@widkers16 congratulations. Another member, @mmy2021, was just asking about hypnosis as an aid for quitting smoking. You might wish to share your experience here:

I also invite you to take part in the discussions in the COPD group here:
