Welcome Josey. Been dipping for 30 years and are surprised you are an addict? Well, you are now in the right house to quit once and for all. Let us talk for a moment about what we do to quit, why we do it and what you can expect for a little while. Everyone here has gone through the suck, ie, a few days of feeling like hammered dog shit. It is tough, but it gets a little better each day. Pretty soon the fog lifts and sleep issues start to straighten out and your mind will start working like it should. You did not learn to jam your mouth up with nicotine overnight, so don't expect everything to get back to normal overnight...it is a process. The good news here is that it will not take 30 years to accomplish. Your brain and body need time to adjust to working without the drug.
Now, go to the welcome center tab on the top of your screen and start reading the materials here. Also read the intros from the other quitters. Then, you need to post roll. Roll is your daily promise to yourself and all of your new brothers and sisters that you will not use tobacco in any form that day. You will post your name and the number of days you are quit each day in the April, 2014 quit group. Each and every day you will post your promise. No exceptions. That is the price of admission to KTC. Nothing more and nothing less. If your electricity quits working, your internet provider goes bankrupt or you are on vacation and will not have internet access, call or text a quit brother and tell the brother to post for you. Simple and easyÂ…and therefore, no reason for not posting roll. The reason you are put in April is that will be the month that you will celebrate being 100 days free of nicotineÂ…your Hall of Fame date. Remember, no one has ever died from quitting!
Post roll and look up at your inbox (1). That is a personal message from me with my telephone number. Use that number when you need to talk to someone. Lets get your quit started today. Wayne
