That's your experience, not a fact.
I cold quit last year after drinking energy drinks since college (right before I quit I was multiple redeyes a day). Yes there are withdrawal symptoms but, through force of will, it is doable.

- SideburnsOfDoom 2y ago"Fast" in my case turned out to be 2-4 days for the main physical symptoms such as headaches. So yeah, not a very long time as these things go.
- lenkite 2y agoYep, I could only cold-quit cigarettes. Soft-quitting never worked for me. Had to hard-stop and never take one again. Every time I felt the craving - 5 pushups! Doing "Hard No" is easier for some people than "Do Less".
