Okay Dan. I'll give you a crash course on the do's and don'ts around this place. There is no better spot on the interweb-thing to get this done. We quit and that's it.
1. Hit the warm, inviting, salmon colored link in the upper left called "Welcome Center". This will give you a quick set of what/how/where things go on here.
2. Up there you'll find a little called Roll Call. We consider this out pledge each day to quit for 24 hours. That's it. We quit one day at a time. Any longer than that I start talking to the walls and they often tell me dirty things that the nic bitch wants. We post roll every day. Don't fuck with the program. No excuses. No "I couldn't get to" or "my grandma was ill" kind of bullshit.
How to post roll:

Video format for us slow folks.Where you ask? Here:
July 2012You're in the July '12 group. Good folks in there. Strong quitters.
3. Get to know folks here. This is simple but ain't easy. Folks here will help you through the shit. Folks here will be looking to YOU to help them through the shit. Get involved. Surrounding yourself with success and a framework of support will only make your quit safer. And that's our goal: to protect your quit. You'll have folks here willing to fight with you 24 hours a day. You tell me where you can find support like that?
4. Read. Read every damn thing on this site. Its a "how-to" guide on getting quit and staying quit. Lots on knowledge. Lots of wisdom. Lots of dumb shit too just to keep you occupied during tough times.
5. Numbers. Get some numbers of folks going through the same shit you are going through. They got your back and you'll have theirs.
6. Get some support on the outside in the real world. Only solidifies what you're doing here.
7. Reach out. Anyone here will help if they can. But no one can help until you ask. All we want is to stay quit. Helping folks helps a quitter on the path.
My name is Soul. I love quitting. I hate UST.
Welcome aboard.
