Going cold turkey will make your symptoms waaay worse. It screws your brain chemistry up or a while. I recommend using a an electronic cig a little before you quit.

Good luck on quitting!

I quit cigarettes cold turkey almost 11 years now. It was hard but I did it. Every smoker who was TD to quit needs to find their own way to do it. For some cold turkey is best - others it's other measures. Find a way that works best for you and good luck!

Hi yes I quit and I definitely feel better NOT smoking. It was so much easier than the first time I quit many years ago, because I am taking Bupropion (Wellbutrin) for depression, which is prescribed in England as an anti-smoking medication (Zyban). It actually makes nicotine unappealing.
