Stop Smoking With CBT: The most powerful way to beat your addiction

Author: Dr Max Pemberton, Max Pemberton

Editorial review of the book

Stop Smoking With CBT is a clear, practical, and scientifically supported guide to quitting smoking for good using cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Dr. Max Pemberton, a psychiatrist, columnist, and mental health expert, offers an effective approach that is not based on willpower or substitutes, but on changing the thought patterns that drive addiction.

In the book, he explains why smokers persist in their habit even though they know it is harmful to them—and how we can break this chain by recognizing automatic thoughts, emotional triggers, and behavioral routines. Pemberton guides readers through the process of understanding their own addiction and offers tools, exercises, and techniques for lasting change—without drama, moralizing, or feelings of defeat.

The book is especially suitable for those who have tried to quit smoking many times but always find themselves caught in the same cycle. The CBT approach enables deeper change—not just "quitting," but freedom from the need to smoke.

Stop Smoking With CBT is an understandable, empathetic, and extremely powerful guide for anyone who wants to finally say, "Enough is enough"—and mean it.
