You are correct, with that attitude you canÂ’t.

When you decide you WANT to quit, come back. KTC works as long as you follow through and are willing to commit to your quit. KTC doesnÂ’t ask you to quit forever. Hell IÂ’m 30 days in and that still makes me panic. I promised my brothers and sisters that I would quit for one day. Today. IÂ’m going to keep that promise. Tomorrow, IÂ’ll do it again.

No one here is going to blow smoke and tell you itÂ’s easy. ItÂ’s not. ItÂ’s going to absolutely suck; at least in the beginning. Everyone here has been through it and can help.

If you decide you want to quit, send me a PM. IÂ’m happy to help, as will everyone here.

I see you've posted roll a couple times. Hopefully your attitude is changing.

Nicotine is almost completely out of your system. Once that happens, quitting is 100% mental.

Post roll daily. Make your promise. Keep your word.

That's the formula. It's worked for me, a 24 year addict who thought he could never quit. I've been making and keeping my promise for 648 days. I'll make a new promise tomorrow. It all happens one day at a time!
