when you quit (lets say smoking) cold turkey, it means you go from smoking to never smoking again

or taking like 4 pain killers a day to quitting cold turkey and never taking another one again

You deny your body's craving and addiction and deal with all the withdrawal symptoms to break your addiction.

It just means to end something abruptly. If you smoke a pack of cigarettes a day and want to quit cigarettes, to quit cold turkey would mean to quit on the spot. There is no easing off, no reducing it to half a pack a day, then a few day, until you quit all together over a period of time. If you threw out your cigarettes and never touched them again, that would be quitting cold turkey.

Not a matter of good or bad, it can definitely be a hard way to end something.
