Anodyne,
Welcome to KTC. As I said before, you're on the right track, but here are some pointers and what not.
The first thing you'll want to do is familiarize yourself with the concept of KTC, what roll is, why we do it, how it's done, and why it works. You can get a grip on this by visiting the
Welcome Center and reading the topics present within. Once you've done this, you'll be able to post up roll over in the
May 2012 Quit Group! The people here will be your quit brothers and sisters. Do not hesitate to form relationships with these people. Although strangers at first, they will soon become your best friends- all of us here at KTC are addicts, whether you realize it or not. Nicotine is a carcinogen and we have a ZERO TOLERANCE policy against it.
Also, at the top right of the page, you will find the LIVE CHAT link. You are encouraged to sign up here (it's separate credentials from the forum) and pop in from time to time. There are always fellow brothers and sisters in the room looking for conversation. This will be a major tool as you strengthen your quit.
The long and short of it? Post roll in the morning. This is your promise to not use the nic bitch! Do NOT ingest nicotine for that day. Go to bed, wake up, and do it all over again. Each and every day, you regain a bit of your life! I must mention that it is crucial that you are determined to quit for YOURSELF. Quitting for those other reasons are important, but a quit just doesn't exist with out that determination of self. The fog will come and go, as any of us will tell you, but you will have an extensive support network here before you know it! Do not hesitate to message numbers and form this column of support. We often say, "remember how shitty the first 'X' days of your quit were. Do you ever want to experience that again? Fuck no!"
Step one of you taking back control of your life begins. Right. Now!
Any questions, comments, or concerns, feel free to PM me or any of the other vets rolling around. I quit with you today!
Crew
