I have spent the past couple of nights reading the forum and other areas of the site. I am finally ready to quit after 20 years.
Yesterday was day 1, but I only lasted 21 hours. I broke down this evening. The fog was insane. I would have never guessed it would be like that. So tonight I start Day 1 again. At least this time I know what to expect. Won't make it any easier, but I will know what's coming and be more prepared.
Welcome Coltsfan74!! I am sure you've read it but this guide has been pretty accurate for me in my quit:
http://killthecan.org/yourquit/what.aspThink about the sacrifice of 3 days of withdrawal vs. the rest of your life...
I am 104 days quit and it has been the best decision I have for myself.
If you are quit, head over to November Quit Group and post roll for Today committing to stay quit for the day - Today is Day 1 for you. Then spend some time reading posts, browsing the boards and getting acclimated with the site.
