Publisher's Summary

Listen to this audiobook and become a happy non-drinker for the rest of your life.

Feeling reliant on alcohol can be a difficult thing to come to terms with and even trickier to manage. This audiobook will cut through all that stress and set you on the right track with Allen Carr’s Easyway method.

Allen Carr established himself as the world’s greatest authority on quitting smoking. His ground-breaking methodology tackles addiction from an entirely different angle which has been successfully applied to other addictions and behavioural issues. His books have sold over 18 million copies in over 40 languages – and his revelation: that it can be easy and even enjoyable to quit.

In The Easy Way to Control Alcohol, his revolutionary method is applied to drinking. With clear step-by-step instructions, it shows you the way to escape from the ‘alcohol trap’ in the time it takes to listen to this audiobook. Allen Carr dispels our illusions about alcohol, removes the psychological dependence and sets you free to enjoy life.

This unabridged audiobook is direct, easy-to-follow and engaging way of digesting the method, which will help you control your drinking habit for good without willpower of sacrifice.

Best way to quit

This book transforms your thoughts from "I wish I could drink" to "I absolutely do not want to drink". I did not drink often, but when I did drink I would almost always over consume, so with the help of this book, abstaining has been simple.

The most underrated audiobook on earth by far

This book didn't only change my life, it saved my life. The step-by-step program that he has absolutely, positively works. You don't have to rely on a higher power, because the power is inside of you but you just don't know it yet. The one thing I didn't like about AA was that they kept going back to a higher power which turned me off completely. You need to listen to the entire audiobook and possibly more than once for it to work but I promise you, it absolutely works. Do everything he says including keep on drinking until you're done the book and it will work. I am now not poisoning myself. Alcohol has controlled my life for 30 years and now I am free, truly free. I feel like superman.

excellent book

I enjoyed this book thoroughly. the narrator was perfect for it. very helpful for my 20 year struggle with alcohol. I appreciate that I have this downloaded now, and can refer back to it, if ever I feel the need too. his way of explaining the alcohol trap and helping you understand that you can only be truly happy, when you understand that trap, and break free of the brainwash, is the most helpful advice given to help you get over the addiction to alcohol. I am free!!!

Worst book I’ve ever read!

Finally, in the VERY last breath, the author offers his suggestions. This book would drive one to drink!

At long last

I have been looking for a message that resonates with me for a long time. I have been a heavy drinker for over 30 years, with pauses lasting no longer than a few days and at most 2 weeks. I’ve listened to the audio book twice and find it helpful to listen to the last few chapters on a daily basis. I’ve had no serious withdrawal effects and am easily able to curb the occasional cravings. I’m on day 9 but feeling more confident than I ever have that I won’t drink again. Thank you Allan Carr.

unconvincing

The author's attempt to make the case for absolute sobriety rather than moderation, as revealed towards the end, boils down to: why would you want to poison yourself at all once you've seen through the brainwashing of our booze dependent culture? Yet some of us accept the risk that comes with moderate substance consumption...Skip to the last chapter for the actual instructions if you find it hard to get through the first chapters, in my opinion you won't be missing much.
