One good thing is that a couple of years ago, I was taking Wellbutrin and it cut my smoking down in half. Not willing to go back to the antidepressant route.
Question is this: I don't have a ton of physical energy but I've got nervous energy. I suffer from generalized anxiety disorder and social anxiety. How can I make it easier on myself to quit cold turkey and deal with anxiety plus withdrawals?

For me was quite a hard journey. I have tried to quit smoking many times. First, i tried the gum than moved to patches, I even tried hypnosis but no success. I guess is more of how it affects your behaviour because for me it had smok/cloud.
Finally 3 years ago, after a devastating period in my life (lost my daughter) I said to myself that I need to make a change in my life to be able to live a healthier life.
I tried vaping, at first, I had doubts about it but 3 years down the road never touched a stinky cigarette again. I suggest you find a good e-liquid a decent device to start with. I hope this will work for you as it worked for me too.
