I quit smoking for my 24th birthday like i always said i would. I decided to go cold turkey but i really feel like i need a *** or even just a drag of one! All my friends smoke and i work in a pub, it's becoming very difficult, should i stay cold turkey or go to my gp for help????

well done 3 days cold turkey is very diffficult so youve done really well especially when faced with all that temptation. when you go cold turkey all the nicotine is out of your body within 48 hours, so you are technically not addicted to the nicotine anymore, what you are craving is the carbon monoxide, and the poisons added to them. if you can manage stick it out as the hard bit is done, if you are really going to cave in get something fast from gp or chemist. keep strong, think about what you are gaining from giving up rather than what you are missing out on, which is really a smelly, expensive slow lingering death!!!! well done girl.x
