Most people think stopping means fighting cravings with willpower and feeling like they’re missing out forever. That’s why it feels so hard. The Allen Carr way is different: once you see that ket gives you nothing, there’s nothing to give up.

Step 1: Understand the trap

Ket doesn’t truly relax you, make you happy or help you cope. It anaesthetises you, then leaves you feeling flat and anxious as it wears off. The next bump seems to fix that feeling, but ket caused it in the first place. Non-users don’t get that dip after it wears off.

Step 2: Question every belief

Step 3: Decide and feel good about it.

You’re not giving anything up. You’re escaping a trap.Think about everything you stand to gain: a healthier body, a bladder that works properly, a clearer head, feeling like you again, more money, better relationships and the freedom to enjoy yourself without needing ket.

You’re not losing something you love. You’re getting back to the real fun, the kind that doesn’t depend on a powder.

Step 4: Make it practical

Once you’ve made your decision, give yourself the best possible start.

  • Delete your dealer’s number and leave group chats centred around ket.
  • Think about what you’ll say if someone offers you some (see the next section).
  • Get back to doing things you enjoy, whether that’s music, gaming, sport or spending time with friends. Not to distract yourself from wanting ket, but to break those old associations and rediscover how good your life can feel without it.
  • And here’s the truth. You don’t have to give up having fun. You can still go to parties, hang out with your mates, go out, dance and have a laugh. The difference is, you won’t need ket to enjoy any of it.

Step 5: Get support

You don’t have to do this on your own.

Talk to someone you trust. If you were feeling anxious, stressed or low before you started using ket, those feelings deserve attention too. Getting free from ket doesn’t mean you have to sort everything else out by yourself.

If you’re experiencing bladder problems, struggling with your mental health or finding it difficult to stop, speak to your GP or a local young people’s drug service. They’re there to help, not judge, and you can ask them about confidentiality.

Allen Carr’s Easyway is designed to help you see through the beliefs that made ket seem appealing in the first place. You can read or listen to Easyway to Quit Ketamine or book a seminar. The audiobook will also be available on Spotify soon.

And remember, the aim isn’t to spend the rest of your life fighting the urge to use ket. It’s to reach the point where you genuinely no longer want it.

If you’ve tried to stop using ket before and ended up going back to it, that wasn’t a failure on your part. You were still caught in the trap, believing ket had something to offer you, or that you couldn’t fully enjoy life without it.

When you see through those beliefs you leave the trap behind.
