Look, everyone has to quit at their own pace and maybe cold turkey was not the best method for you. Please don't think that I am encouraging you to have a cigarette, but maybe you want to do it gradually. If you normally smoke one pack per day, smoke 15 for two days, then 12, then 10 and so on. Then you might want to do what my dad did - four per day for a week, and then if you realize that you can go that many hours without one, you can just stop.

Everybody has a method that works best for them, and perhaps you just need to find yours.
