Hey @Susie9 Some people can go cold turkey but for most people, they will try a number of times before succeeding. Did you know that smoking is one of the hardest addictions to break? Go easy on yourself, girl and cut yourself some slack. I gave up over 20 years ago (wow! I'm shocked when I realise that). Much of the quitting industry was in it's infancy then and I used patches.
Some tips that might help. Make smoking uncomfortable... Don't sit down, hold the ciggie in different fingers, don't have a coffee or whatever at the same time, wait for a specified time after meals, smoke in designated places only, etc. Try not to smoke in a new place or with new people. Put off having a cigarette for a block of time and do something else. Have something healthy to eat to take away that craving taste in your mouth - I used mandarins. And biggest thing is not to beat yourself up if you fall down - just move on. These can help to break down the psychological and physical addictions, gradually.
But I'm only suggesting these things if you're ready to want to try them. You've got enough at the moment to be stressing about more.
