Hey Brad, my story is very similar to yours. I dipped for 35 years and I quit on Sept 25th, 2016. I didn't find KTC until Oct 15th, 20days later. I too struggled on my own for three weeks. The worst is behind you, but you are not out of the woods yet, and you will never be cured. This is a daily fight, but one you can win. I will send you my number in a pm. You can text or call if you ever need anything. I hope to hear from you soon.
Tony
