(1,918 posts)It did nothing for me. I also tried it on CD, but that didn't work either. Although, the relaxation exercises proved to be somewhat useful for my insomnia. I also had my ears stapled for both, but nothing there either.

(174 posts)I did it to quit smoking, it worked for me after 3 sessions. I pretty much went cold turkey after the second session was jittery for a few days, after the third session completely kicked the habit. It will be 8 years in April and I have not had the desire to smoke since. I can not be around cigarettes at all now.

I didn't see him for that though - I went to pot instead.

(75,480 posts)I quit smoking twenty years after that, cold turkey. The first six months were hell, today twenty years later I don't even think of smoking so there is light at the end of the tunnel. Today though there are so many other aids to help you. Back when I quit all they had was nicotine gum, which others I knew had tried, that didn't work either.
I understand E-cigarettes help. I wish they had been available back when I was trying to kick the habit.
