Actually, cold turkey is probably the best way in the long run because you will have effectively deterred the psychological cravings all on your own so you are less likely to start up again. While all that nicotine gum and nicotine patch stuff works, they could actually increase your smoking if you don't do it right which will be even worse for you in the long run than seizures.

You should get on a program, use alternatives. Some programs will wean you off of smoking a little at a time, but getting on a program is the best way to stop.

My father went from smoking 60 a day for 40 years to none just like that and ever smoked again. All of my friends that try to ween themselves off and cut down have invariably started full time again pretty quickly. Go for it! And good luck, it'll be hard but you'll be fine!

Siezures and other serious effects are more common with going cold turkey from drugs or alchoholism.

That's how my father quit- Not that he had much choice at the time: He was in the hospital for appendicitis.
