I agree, it was arsing hard. You need to be set to do it.
I did cold turkey myself. Remember walking around the flat at the time thinking ' need a fag need a fag need a fag need a fag etc etc'
(And by fag, I mean cigarette. The term sucking on a fag might mean different things to different folks. I am aware)
I was disappointed with myself finding it so tough.
It didn't last.
But I learnt from that and went again. Realising that it didn't matter how I stopped. As long as I stopped.
The next time I went for patches. With an extra patch. Then when I really craved, had a nico mint as well.
Also, what really really helped. Put the money on the side every day that I would have spent on cigarettes.
Deliberately went and got cash out to do it.
I allowed myself to spend that on whatever I wanted.
(Also saved a few quid by not going down the pub as I found that the hardest place for temptation)
Good luck to you sir which ever way you choose. Look at all the suggestions and go with what is right for you.
It is very worth it.
