You should definitely quit smoking as it has negative effects on your health.
However you will not be able to quit on your own as it is a form of addiction.
Kindly consult both Psychiatrist and Clinical Psychologist. Psychiatrist will prescribe you medicines and Clinical Psychologist will conduct therapy.
Next Steps
Consult Psychiatrist and Clinical Psychologist.
