He is Global CEO &amp; Senior Facilitator, of Allen Carr\u2019s Easyway Organisation and was delighted to be invited by Ash Wales to help the smokers of Wales during the Covid-19 outbreak. He lives in the suburbs of London, where he&#8217;s working from home under lock-down, and is pictured above enjoying his favourite view, overlooking Columbus Circle &amp; Central Park South, NY, NY.<\/em><br><br>Following on from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.allencarr.com\/en-us\/articles\/ashwales\/\">Part One<\/a>, it\u2019s a pleasure to answer some of your questions and reiterate my offer of help and support &#8211; so let&#8217;s get straight to those questions.\n<h3>Q. What is your main message to smokers in light of the Covid-19 pandemic?<\/h3>\nI think we\u2019ve all probably heard the advice from the world\u2019s leading medical officers about smokers being more vulnerable to the affects of Covid-19. The message has been pretty clear; now would be a great time to quit smoking.<br><br>The #QuitForCovid campaign is gaining momentum on a daily basis, and lots of people seem determined to emerge from lock-down having gained something positive. Whether that\u2019s a new skill, better fitness, or trying out yoga or mindfulness, there\u2019s a real sense that people are looking to use this horrible time to at least gain something positive.<br><br>My message to smokers would be that there\u2019s never been a better time to quit. Not because of lock-down, financial issues, or health worries but simply because it would be wonderful to emerge from this crisis free from the slavery of smoking. That\u2019s a bonus that will stay with you forever and not just for Covid-19.\n<h3>Q. What advice would you give to smokers who are worried about how they will cope with cigarette cravings if they quit smoking?<\/h3>\nThis is a key question and one that always worried me as a smoker. It would only take the thought of running out of cigarettes to send me into a cold sweat.<br><br>Now, I was a bad case, a chain-smoker, and I\u2019d panic if I got down to my last 20 cigarettes \u2013 let alone my last few. But on the few occasions I found myself with only a couple of cigarettes left I\u2019d experience what I thought was the physical <a href=\"\/easyway-stop-smoking\/nicotine-withdrawal-timeline\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">withdrawal from nicotine<\/a>. It was an extremely uptight, panicky, anxious, stressed feeling \u2013 the feeling that would-be quitters dread. It\u2019s enough to put anyone off even trying to quit. I have no doubt that every smoker reading this can relate to that.<br><br>What\u2019s less obvious and was certainly not obvious to me at the time, is that the feeling didn\u2019t go away when I lit my second-to-last cigarette. In fact, the feeling would get worse! Now think about that for a moment. Whatever was causing those feelings \u2013 it can\u2019t possibly have been nicotine withdrawal. Nicotine was flooding into my body; I was smoking a cigarette at that time.<br><br>Nicotine withdrawal does exist \u2013 but it\u2019s actually an extremely mild, slightly empty, slightly insecure feeling and is almost imperceptible. The real discomfort a smoker experiences when they quit without proper advice and guidance is caused by a mental process. The sense that they are missing out on some sort of pleasure or benefit. It\u2019s that belief that causes those unpleasant physical symptoms. They\u2019re real physical symptoms \u2013 but they\u2019re caused by a thought process. Change the thought process and you don\u2019t get the unpleasant physical symptoms.<br><br>If you <a href=\"\/easyway-stop-smoking\/top-tips-to-stop-smoking\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">quit smoking<\/a> with a great frame of mind, a sense that you\u2019re escaping from something rather than \u201cquitting\u201d something, the physical withdrawal from nicotine really isn\u2019t a problem\u2026bear in mind \u2013 I was an 80 a day smoker and felt fine and dandy when I quit \u2013 it was the slightest feeling that was easy to brush off.\n<h3>Q. How can they prepare themselves to quit smoking?<\/h3>\nThe important thing is to make a choice. Rather than feel obliged to quit because of health concerns, or money concerns, or pressure from friends or family \u2013 ignore all that stuff. It\u2019s all very negative. Instead start viewing smoking for what it is \u2013 simply addiction to nicotine.<br><br>If you can understand that <a href=\"\/easyway-stop-smoking\/nicotine-addiction-effects\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">nicotine addiction<\/a>, and the mental processes it causes, fools you into thinking that cigarettes relieve discomfort rather than cause discomfort you\u2019re halfway to freedom already.<br><br>Cigarettes don\u2019t cure the discomfort \u2013 they cause it. Allen Carr explained it perfectly, he described it as like wearing horribly tight shoes all day \u2013 just for the relief of taking them off when you get home. Now we all probably make the odd sacrifice of comfort in the interests of fashion \u2013 but we simply wouldn\u2019t wear horribly tight shoes just for the sense of relief when we take them off.\n<h3>Q. How can people quit smoking whilst under lockdown without behavioural support of nicotine replacement therapy to hand?<\/h3>\nPart of the challenge of getting through lock-down is having to do without those things which we take for granted. Although some quit smoking services across the country are valiantly attempting to continue providing their support \u2013 it\u2019s clear that as the crisis deepens it will be less available, if at all. My message is clear, there is nothing to fear from quitting smoking and Allen Carr\u2019s Easyway are happy to provide free of charge advice to anyone, whether they elect to use Easyway \u2013 or decide to simply quit smoking on their own.<br><br>I\u2019m delighted to outline a few options later that enable smokers to access Allen Carr\u2019s Easyway to Quit Smoking programs for FREE and some others that cost less than a couple of weeks\u2019 worth of cigarettes (and are heavily discounted as part of the #QuitForCovid campaign).<br><br>In all cases they are easily accessible, they don\u2019t require you to leave the house or use any kind of nicotine or other kind of drug and if you follow the guidance they deliver \u2013 you should not only find it easy to quit smoking \u2013 but thoroughly enjoyable. There is nothing to fear and everything to gain.<br><br>Q. What advice would you give to the friends and family of anyone wanting to quit smoking whilst under lockdown?<br><br>That\u2019s another great question. There are some easy mistakes that can be avoided. In our eagerness to help our loved ones to quit we want to be encouraging, supportive, and \u201cthere\u201d for them, but this often comes across as pressure. Whether it\u2019s repeatedly checking in with them, \u201cHow are you feeling about it?\u201d, then asking the exact same question half an hour later, or whether it\u2019s tip-toeing around them in case you risk messing with their mojo, \u201cless\u201d is definitely \u201cbest\u201d.<br><br>Be loving, warm, and considerate \u2013 but try to be as normal as possible. If the person who\u2019s quit says something about having quit, like, \u201cI\u2019m doing great\u201d, then hearty congratulations and encouragement are the perfect response. An extra cuddle or hug (if you\u2019re self-isolating with them) or a big thumbs up message if you\u2019re not.<br><br>If you see that they\u2019re struggling \u2013 or if perhaps they fail \u2013 please don\u2019t judge them. It is easy to quit smoking \u2013 but only if you know how. I remember after my repeated failed attempts to quit I felt worse and worse about myself. Never be angry with them for failing \u2013 if you understood addiction then you\u2019d understand why.\n<h3>Q. If people have tried quitting smoking are under stress and are urgently craving a cigarette as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, what would you advise them to do?<\/h3>\nI think the nation is still a little in shock. Never, in peacetime, have so many of the population been so stressed simultaneously. It\u2019s inescapable. So, the first thing to remember is that the stress is real. The second thing to remember is that far from relieving that stress, smoking would add to it further. The third thing to remember is that the stress can only hurt you if you let it.<br><br>For those of us lucky enough not to be on the front line of this crisis we should undertake to control our stress levels for the benefit of those who are. There are an extraordinary number of people for whom we must gratefully remain \u201cde-stressed\u201d; doctors, nurses, volunteers, and anyone who is out there working hard, in the most difficult conditions imaginable, to help us get through this crisis. We can help them all \u2013 just by taking good care of ourselves. Physically and mentally.<br><br>There are so many brilliant resources online, via apps, or books, or audiobooks and podcasts that can help everyone deal with the stress that this crisis is causing. Learning to handle stress better is a brilliant thing to do and a skill that will remain with you for life.<br><br>For those heroes at the front line I would say a similar thing, but ever so gently, ever so respectfully, I\u2019d say &#8211; do what you can, at this terrible time, in these terrible conditions, to somehow find relief from the incredible stress you must be dealing with. Talking to friends, talking to family, or simply being comfortable being alone if you\u2019re one of the brave, selfless souls living separately from their loved ones so that they can support the elderly, the infirm, and the victims of this virus \u2013 do what you can to feel as comfortable as you can. Relaxation, mindfulness, and meditation techniques are readily available online and quick and easy to follow. It\u2019s so important to protect yourself mentally as well as physically, in as far as you can.\n<h3>Q. What about when I drink \u2013 my willpower slips, and I end up smoking?<\/h3>\nWhen people feel pressurised to quit \u2013 or feel that they\u2019ve \u201cquit\u201d something precious rather than \u201cgot rid of\u201d something awful it requires willpower. The approach is, \u201cI really want to carry on smoking, but I can\u2019t. I\u2019ve got to quit. I\u2019ll tough it out for as long as I can\u201d. It\u2019s like hanging on for grim life. In those circumstances, a coupe of drinks, loosens that grip and before long \u2013 we kid ourselves that, \u201cjust the one\u201d, won\u2019t hurt us. But genuinely, if you make a decision, that you\u2019ve had enough of smoking, that you\u2019re fed up of what it\u2019s done to you, and you enjoy a fabulous sense of release when you quit \u2013 you can have as many drinks as you want and your view won\u2019t change. You don\u2019t need to hang on for grim life \u2013 you just have to be happy to be free and that\u2019s easy. Now that is worth a celebration \u2013 with or without a drink.\n<h3>Q. My partner smokes \u2013 will that make it harder?<\/h3>\nSimilarly, to my last point, those who feel they are sacrificing something when they quit tend to envy other people who continue to smoke. This is bad enough if you see people smoking in a movie \u2013 let alone when it\u2019s your partner who refuses to quit \u2013 or simply can\u2019t succeed. But as I\u2019ve said, with the right frame of mind, one of finally having found freedom \u2013 your partner smoking won\u2019t bother you \u2013 and you certainly won\u2019t be tempted to join them.<br><br>It\u2019s essential that you don\u2019t hassle them or make them feel bad. Deep down inside they feel bad enough already. One of the greatest things about quitting with a positive frame of mind is that you can be supremely cool about friends or partners who continue to smoke. If you\u2019re feeling deprived because you quit it\u2019s torture and hell \u2013 they have something you can\u2019t have \u2013 but if you\u2019re happy not smoking \u2013 it really doesn\u2019t bother you. They\u2019ll notice how calm and laid back and relaxed you are about having quit and it\u2019ll inspire them, eventually, to follow your lead.\n<h3>Q. I\u2019m worried about weight gain \u2013 is there a way to avoid it?<\/h3>\nWeight gain is not inevitable and only normally occurs with those smokers who grit their teeth and try to battle the temptation to smoke rather than being happy to leave smoking behind them. If you don\u2019t feel you\u2019re missing out on anything \u2013 there is no compulsion to eat your way through bags of candy or junk food. It\u2019s often this aspect of quitting smoking, using stubborn resolve, that causes most of the weight gain \u2013 people tend to eat and drink more as a substitute for smoking. I\u2019ll say more about other aspects of weight gain next time.\n<h3>Go for It!<\/h3>\nIf you want to quit smoking on your own \u2013 it\u2019ll be my pleasure to provide you with some further advice and guidance, or answer your questions, over the coming weeks.
