To quit "cold turkey" means that you just one day decide to NOT SMOKE ANY MORE!!!!!
It is hard, but to me it is the best way.
I quit "cold turkey" 20 years ago and was a 3 pack a day smoker. I used to light one cigarette off of another cigarette.
If you continue to have problems, by all means make a doctor's appointment and get help if you need it.
When I decieded to quit, I told all of amy co-workers that I was going to quit smaoking and to please help me stop. BUT, I never put them in a position to where they would have felt uncomfortable about helping me to stop, by begging for a cigarette.
Good luck on quitting. It is hard, but the rewards are worth it.
You might call the American Cancer Society for tips on stopping.
Good luck once again.

Whatever you do, DON'T use any of those gums or patches. The nicotine in them will only make you want a cig more. Just get some regular chewing/bubble gum and whenever you want a smoke, grab a piece of gum to occupy your mouth. I've been helping my boyfriend through quitting and it's going quite well. Just take control of your body and let it know you're in charge and that you aren't going to take orders from your cravings. Believe in yourself and you can kill the habit.
