Have given up cold turkey, after 50 years smoking, the last 15 on cigarillos.
Have only lasted one pregnancy without the evil weed.
I now live in Portugal, surrounded by non smokers, I must, must succeed this time, but it is so so hard!!

A very warm welcome to the Forum my love. Lucky you living the dream in Portugal.
Well done on your decision to quit smoking. Plenty folks will give you advice on going cold turkey, I myself used patches.
Take baby steps, please please try not to look too far ahead, just a minute, an hour atta time. Drink plenty water, or fruit juices and do things you enjoy.
Try to fill your days with enjoyable things, I loved walking, reading, watching films, spending time with my 2 small grandsons.
Wishing you all the best as you continue on this quitting journey.

I also smoked for 50 years but couldn't manage CT. It doesn't matter what you use to quit. It's the not smoking that matters. Good advice from Fi and Smile
