Closing a credit card will probably hurt your credit score. The second largest part of your credit score is the age of your accounts. The older the accounts, the more it helps your score. If you were to close that account, assuming it's aged and in good standing...it's going to hurt.
If you have a problem spending cut it up, but try to keep it open. At the end of the day, budgeting your money is all that matters so do what you have to do. I'm only speaking in terms of your credit score.
