BUY IT, BUY IT, BUY IT, BUY IT, BUY IT! AND... BUY IT!

This CD is truly awesome. I was into self hypnosis for relaxation when I was younger but I never tried any self-change self hypnosis and now I'm amazed.

First of all, I was drinking nearly everyday. I was hung over, I was drunk and I was tired. I felt like I was wasting my life because I wanted to do other things, but I was never getting around to them because I was always dealing with the effects of drinking.

Whenever someone called me to go out, I'd go. And it was simply out of control. But I couldn't stop and it was driving me insane. I wanted to be exercising or relaxing or watching a movie, but instead I was out getting loud and being the "life of the party." I wanted to improve my life everywhere, but everytime I tried, I failed and I attributed my failure to drinking.

SO, I was looking through audio books at Borders one day and I came accross a stack of Barrie Konicov's CDs. This one just said "Stop Drinking." The packaging was minimal. The description was weak. I didn't have high expectations. But I bought it. AND I LOVE IT!

This was only about a month and a half ago, but I haven't had a drink since. And generally, I only listened to the CD as I was going to bed. I listened to it probably twice while awake.

Just so you know, it hasn't always been easy. At times, I have felt socially inadequate when I'm at the bar with friends or co-workers. But I can go to the bar with them and know that I won't drink. And I can order a soda or a water. And they can make fun of me. And I can feel bad about it for a few minutes, but still I know that I won't break and I know that at the root of who I am, I don't want to drink and there is no need for me to be drinking.

Now, after the month and a half, I find that people are secretly envious of me. They MIGHT make fun of my non-drinking at first, but after they see me being strong for a while, they'll offer me a shot and if I pretend to consider it, they quietly say "don't do it man." It's really, seriously weird.

I will say this, the quality of the CD isn't fantastic. The audio is a bit muffled and feels a bit dated. I suspect the situation is that Konicov had a series of cassette tapes and they were all converted to CDs, hence the poor production.

Regardless, the quality won't ruin anything in the self hypnosis process. You'll go through some very powerful visualizations and totally destroy your dependence on alcohol. Truly an awesome CD!

I loved the guy, and I liked what he said. It did not help me stop having my nightly glass or 2 of wine though. Maybe my heart wasn't in it enough.
