Addiction, Self-Identity and 1 Day at a Time.

Breaking the physical addiction to nic is simple. It is unpleasant, but simple, and only lasts 72 hours. 

The psychological component to quitting is the real journey.  Begin the journey by inventing a new self-identity.  The Quitter. 

Say, “I AM QUIT”.

You are not “quitting”.  You are not “trying” to quit.  You ARE quit.  It is a state of being. The psychological term is “Identity Development”. There is no try, there is. It is now part of your identity.  “Quit” is who you are.

Also, observe the user that is contemplating quitting but would rather quit tomorrow or next week. You see, 72 hours of physical withdrawal is nothing to the user because the user has been managing physical withdrawal symptoms the entire duration of the addiction. What is scary? Can the addict fundamentally change his/her Self-Identity? Can the addict quit for the rest of his/her life? Quit for the rest of your life?  How is that possible?  These notions can scare a potential quitter into choosing addiction over freedom.

There is good news friend. You do not have to quit for the rest of your life.  Simply choose to quit today. Do not worry about baseball next March. Do not worry about next month’s exams. Do not worry about Tuesday’s deadline. Quit today. The body will adjust. The psyche will adjust. You will gradually and often unnoticeably reinvent what it is to be you. You shall be restored one day at a time.
Sco, as usual, you hit the nail on he head.

I've been freaking out because tax season (a huge trigger of mine) is here. I just realized That I am worrying about the time period, and not the day. Fuck my stress level on April 13th! I don't need to worry about that.

I just need to be happy and concentrate on my quit today.

Thanks man.

The door is closed, locked, chained and dead-bolted.  Alarm is set.  Sco is safe and secure.
Feels good don't it. The tools provided here are priceless.

P.S. You realize you must go through me before doing anything stoopid. I will help you stand against the door any day.

Sco,

I appreciate your leadership on this site. You were one of the first to welcome me when I found KTC. I am glad you have my back and I certainly have yours!

Thanks
