Cold turkey has never worked for me; it's impossible to sustain concentration on code with the nicotine monkey on my back. I use Nicorette gum to get through the day, then reward myself with an after dinner smoke. The first cig of the day gets later and later til it's gone, then I'm smoke free for a few months. Then I fall off the wagon again. Fortunately I've never been a 20, 30 or 40 a day smoker. Ten a day at the most.
