Welcome! I was where you are exactly 1 year ago.

Sent you a PM to your inbox. Upper right corner of page.

Stay focused and stay quit

13 year dipped, working on hour number 48 of my quit. This is my second time on a real quit and IÂ’ll be damned if I end up back in this position. Reading folksÂ’ stories here has been inspirational and IÂ’m making the promise to myself to never succumb to mental weakness again. Happy to be here.
Welcome. There is only one quit though, what you had before was "a real stoppage". I had 20-30 "real stoppages" over 17 years, yet only 1 REAL QUIT. The system works, and it's mind set changes like this that make it work.
Find your quit group and get in there and post roll every day.

Some of my fondest and clearest memories are peeing in places that aren't bathrooms.

Hey DC!

Welcome to KTC, the best place on the net for quitting! Get yourself acquainted with your group which is April 2018. Post your promise in there not to use nicotine for today...keep that promise...repeat tomorrow.

There is a lot of quitting wisdom as well as a lot of bullshitting, but it really is as simple as explained above. Also sending you a PM (top right corner)
