Joe used to smoke, but he quit cold turkey and hasn't gone back to it since. He is living proof that going cold turkey can be successful, especially if you don't do your bad habit very often. He only smoked his cloves 3-4 times a week.

Cold turkey refers to the clammy, cold, sweaty and goose bumped state of the heroin addict that is trying to "kick" the habit. This happens when the junkie decides to give up heroin without any sort of support mechanism - such as methadone - to take the place of the heroin. The body reacts by turning cold, clammy, sweaty, and the skin resembles that of a cold turkey.
"Did you hear Jojo was giving up junk?"
"Really? How?"
"He's going cold turkey - he looks like hell."

When you completely quit a habit, typically smoking right away. It is very painful and puts you in a very irritable mood. It is very different than giving up gradually. When giving up gradually, you smoke littler and littler each day.

The act of swearing off any and all advances towards your love obsession; no google, no social media stalking, no wondering, no waiting. Getting on with life, refusing to have any downtime dedicated to a previous vice.
