Been dipping for past 22 years. Tried stopping many times to no avail. Nice to find this group with folks I can relate with. Thanks for being here!!
Great to have you Cochise. Lucky for you, this site isn't about stopping, but quitting. KTC is all about quitting for just today. Don't worry about tomorrow. Today is here now and is ripe for the winning.
If you haven't already, go post roll in April 2014. That will be your group as you head towards 100 day free (Hall of Fame). By posting roll, you are making a promise to yourself and the rest of your group that you will not under any circumstances use nicotine in any form today (patches and nic gum included). Keep you promise and you just won day 1.
Start reading everything you can on the site. Intros, hall of fame speeches, words of wisdom, etc. Then get some numbers from your group. The more numbers exchanged, the more the accountability builds on itself. I know it seems weird to exchange numbers with strangers, but you probably tried it for a long time trying to pick up girls, so try it again here. It's bound to be more successful than your attempts with the ladies. I have yet to be rejected by anybody on this site!
Again, glad to have you here, and even more glad you've decided that you're no longer a slave to nicotine. I quit with you today.
