Welcome to the site Rich and congrats on your decision to Quit. There will definitely be some challenges ahead, but from just over two years out, I can tell you that every one of those challenges is something that you can overcome and that it is absolutely worth it.
At KTC, we have a system to maintain accountability, as well as build a strong support network. It's called "Posting Roll" and it's the foundation of the program here. Roll is your daily promise not to use any nicotine product. You make that promise in your quit group as soon as reasonably possible, every single day, then you keep your word. It might sound silly, but knowing that you've made a promise to a bunch of strangers can literally save your quit. It also helps you track your quit, air out concerns, challenges and victories and build a robust support network. Because Roll is foundational to the program here, it's considered the price of entry to utilizing the other resources at this site.
Your group is September 2018, found here:
topic/30602339/29/#new. It's September because that's when you'll hit 100 days clean, considered the first major milestone around here. Specific instructions for posting roll can be found on that page.
This site has an essentially infinite amount of information, motivation and resources for your successful quit. If you really want this and are willing to work for it, all you have to do is dive in and pick up the tools that are right here at your disposal.
Let me know if I can help.
