Whatever works: Congratulations on the first step - deciding to stop! stopping smoking is difficult & the best program is what works for you. Everyone is different in what works for them. Some do best with going "cold turkey" but most need a little help with either patches, gum or prescription meds. Your md or dentist can help you on the way to better health.

Cold turkey.: As far as quitting without any nicotine replacement, the cold turkey method is great, and has proven to be the most effective method. But plan it ahead of time. Pick a quit date in advance, maybe a meaningful date like a birthday or holiday, and gather people who are aware of your attempt that you can call upon for moral support if you start to falter. Good luck!!
