Brad, you'll fit right in. We all have stopped for a while, only to hear the siren song of nicotine and stuff our faces again. There is a method for success at KTC which you should use.
1. Get that can out of the trash and flush the contents down the toilet. (Total destruction saves dumpster diving later).
2. Go to the February 2016 quit group (you will get to 100 days in February with those bad ass quitters) and post roll. Roll is you promise to yourself and all here that you will not use nicotine for 24 hours. Repeat that promise by posting roll tomorrow morning and each tomorrow as it arrives.
3. Exchange digits with fellow quitters. People who you can text to get through a crave, or post roll if your computer crashes. Get to know these quitters. Alone is much harder way to quit.
4. Read this site, the hall of fame speeches, words of wisdom, other intros, and cancer stories. You will find quitters like you all over, and reduce the odds you will become one of the last group.
We don't worry about forever here, we quit one day at a time (ODAAT) which anyone can do. We quit every damn day (EDD) as soon as we wake in the morning.
For the next several days, your quit will suck followed by craves and fog. You can get through this even if it ends up hour by hour or minute by minute. Drink lots of water, exercise, post in your quit group, try the live chat (it can be empty on weekends) or even the emergency topic on the quit group page (yes, people monitor that to support your quit).
Congrats on a great decision to quit at KTC!
I quit with you today.
