Day 3 of My First Attempt to Quit

[bigwhitebeast]

Welcome Carumba, did you get the PM that I sent you last night? Look for the inbox at the top right on the screen. Here is a recap just incase:

Well here is the deal with KTC, we are basically a cold turkey program, we don't utilize nicotine replacement therapy such as nicorette gum.

We come in each day and promise to our brothers that we will remain quit for the rest of the day, the next day we come and do the same thing.

People come in here and bust balls, they go in the chat and talk about the issues they are having, they call fellow quit group members and ask for help. We remain quit one day at a time.

We have milestones, the biggest and the first is reaching 100 days quit without NRT, this is called the Hall of Fame, the time when you reach HOF is your quit group so if you stopped all nicotine on March 23rd you would be in the June 2012 group.

When in your group you post roll call, this is your promise to quit today, tomorrow you come in and repeat. Remember, we are addicts, we are junkies to nicotine, it takes a strong will and assistance to stay quit.

Here is how to post roll call

Welcome to our group, if you buy into the program it can save your life.

Stay quit my friend.

Hello all. During my google searches I came across this website. Looks fantastic with lots of reading to catch up on.

My story. 50 years old and never smoked. Dipped for the 1st time 17 years ago. Minor league baseball team was in town and a player offered me some. Tried it, and haven't stopped.

Friday at 2pm I decided enough. I had been thinking about it for the past 4 months and have cut my usage down to 2 tins a week. Up in Canada that is still $40 a week !

Not sure what to expect. Been 3 days so far and I don't know what is worse...the withdrawl or just the habit routine.

Look forward to the journey with you folks 1
