Recent studies show that hypnosis has some short term benefit but wears off rather quickly. You best bet is to go cold turkey. Think of it like this if you were shipwrecked on a deserted island and you couldn’t get smokes you would get over it in around 3 days

I tried it once, about thirty years ago. I don’t really believe I was hypnotized to begin with. I t didn’t help me quit smoking at the time, although I think I slowed down for a couple of days, trying to justify to myself spend the $50. I quit once for 10 years and I haven’t smoked in the last 2 years, but I can’t say I will never smoke again….. But I hope not… Yes cold turkey is the way.
