Title: Day 1
Post by: Gooseman1 on May 04, 2017, 10:44:00 AM
This is not my first day going without a dip. I have gone in the past a day or two without one, but always pick it right back up, and this has gone on for over 5 years. Its a habit, its an addiction, and I am done. My relationships have suffered, to the point of almost no return. Well today is the day I am quitting for good. I will not call this another attempt. This will be the day that I quit successfully. I ran across this site last night, which was just the extra push I needed to make this be my time to quit. It is good to know I am not alone, and it is good to have the accountability from people who have gone through (and currently going through) what I am. Most people in my life don't understand, or are not willing to face it, or just don't know. I know I will not be alone from everything I have seen on this site. My Name is Andy, I have been addicted to nicotine for over 5 years, and this is day one of my quit (Feels good saying that out loud). I am quitting for myself, and for my family, I will no longer hid it or pretend it is not a problem. It is a problem, I have a problem, and I am ready to face it and quit. Day 1!

Way to man up Andy, I am happy you found this site. KTC changed quitting into a reality for me. Keep reading and stay close to the site, post roll and get involved with your month. Send out pm's with your phone number to up your accountability to others here. Drink a lot of water and hunker down EDD with that resolve you showed in your introduction. "I will not call this another attempt", indeed it will not be if you use the tools here. Proud to quit with you today.
