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.
