When to leave KTC part 2


I’ve spent a year surfing these boards pushing support to old and new groups and I always hear the “When should I leave” get tossed around although the answer seems so simple and clear at that time it really is hard to process. Hell you just posted X amount of days quit and let’s face it this has become a chore right? Wrong if this has become just a chore to you then you forgot why you came here to begin with. I see the shit about cult like atmosphere and that’s just plain BS. I could walk away from here tomorrow and demons won’t eat my soul. I won’t walk away because I’ve built some pretty incredible relationships here and I’m certain me leaving would affect those relationships in a negative way and to be honest if I’m not posting my promise I’ll be finger banging the can again. I’m not going to sit here and hold you ransom and tell you that you’ll fail without KTC, but let’s face it the odds are against you and you can’t deny that. I only have this one bit of advice on leaving and it’s this; If you think you’ve burnt your time here and you’re ready to move on just remember less than 30 seconds to post a promise that ensures your quit for just that day or run the risk of getting sucked back into an addiction that will kill you with no mercy for you or your loved ones… The method is simple here quit one day at a time or face those turbulent waters alone. I’ll take the safety net every day because I’ve been in that water and I won’t fall in again….
Thats the messed up part is that we use emotion to justify logic. The fuk its, butt hurt or some other emotional state set in, we find it easier to use KTC as the scape goat then to really figure out whats going on. The same way the pre-HOF groups blame the big bad asshole vets for being mean and leave. It is all the same emotional based logic.

Doesnt matter the day count I still need brotherhood and accountability to be successful.
There are no circumstances in which using nicotine will improve the outcome.

My journey. The best part it is not over yet.

Caving is and always will be a choice, it’s not an accident, it’s not an out of the blue thing, it's a planned and thought-out choice. Don’t be a weak bitch. She’s a dead plant and you’re alive. Do whatever it takes to keep it that way…

You are an awesome father, husband and quit brother. Couldn't ask for anyone better to walk this walk. You are strong and committed. An asset to your group and the KTC.

Congrats on your 300 days.

Dusty, great quit you got going on! From day 1 you came here to quit, and by following the KTC blueprint you have become a perfect example of how to do it the KTC way. You have built so much accountability here for yourself, and you have newbs and vets alike in your corner :) Keep doing what has gotten you this far!
