Title: Best way to quit
Post by: Lampiasi on October 30, 2020, 09:08:34 PM

I’ve finally convinced myself that it is time to quit.  I have a history of anxiety/depression.  Does anyone have any tips as to the best way I should approach this.

@Lampiasi (https://ktcforum.org/index.php?action=profile;u=18671) welcome to KTC. @ankape (https://ktcforum.org/index.php?action=profile;u=15914) has given you the link to freedom. Use it. Wake up, piss, and post your promise to stay nicotine free for the day. Keep your word and repeat the process the following day. Also, make some relationships with fellow quitters. Exchanging digits through personal messages is normal. Those relationships come in very handy during the hard times. Only concern yourself about quitting for today. We will deal with tomorrow when it gets here. Focusing one day at a time is the number 1 things that helps with my stress/anxiety. Keep it simple. You can do this and we are here to help.

Cold turkey is the only way.
