You CAN do this. Today is my 6 year anniversary without a cat turd in my lip. This can be your new life, but you have to want it with every fiber of your being. We are here for you.

Welcome and just be quit for today and worry about nothing else. Reach out to anyone and everyone. It'll be the best decision you've ever made. Use all the resources provided and stick to the website for as much as the day as you can for a while. We've all been there, and we're all doing it today, so will you.

Thank you both tremendously. Im very serious about this, the more shitty I feel through quitting is propelling more motivation to never use. Ill continue reading posts because Ive been finding them quite helpful.

Cheers gents

Welcome aboard bud. You've done the best thing you could do and decided to put yourself first and get yourself clean. All the folks here have come from the same path. There are no special butterflies or snowflakes. We are all addicts and know the score. You can't fool us and you don't want to fool yourself. Get some digits for support. Get to know your group (April 2017). Read everything you can. Ask questions. Reach out to folks. Plan, prepare and protect. Maybe they rewrote the playbook since i last checked on newbies but I still feel a pair of steel balls and your word will get you through this.

Quote from: FearNotLife
Greetings warriors of KTC,
My name is Ian and On January 10th, 2017, after an 8 year battle with dip that its time for me to quit. Im 24 years old now so I started when I was 16. Ever since I began this addiction my life has been spiraling down a path of negativity and self loathing and for some reason I kept clinging to the very substance that I was aware was dragging me there (hence the addiction). The past 3 days have been rough and all the stories Ive read are resonating with me; the fogginess, anger, headaches, and the scariest thing is the lack of ability to take deep breaths. Right now the fog is really settling in though. I know there is a rough road ahead and I cant do it all on my own if I want to be sure the rest of my life is lived to the fullest. I just want my life back. I realize because of this giant mistake that I am going to have to fight for it as many of you have and will continue to do.
Welcome, stay close to the site and read as much as you can. Send me a PM if you would like my number.

If quitting is cool, consider me Myles Davis.

Unless you bring value onto my 1/2 acre, I don't want to hear it.
