Since I'm a little late to the game, I'll keep things brief.

On July 22, 2016, I made one of the greatest decisions I've ever made which was to untether myself from a demon that has been trying to kill me since I was a kid.

My story is pretty similar to a lot of people here - so I won't bore with much detail: started young and stupid, spent 35 years of my life quitting, caving, lying, trying, failing, and generally feeling lousy about myself, my health, my future, and all the while paying out the proverbial butt for the pleasure of doing it all to myself. Where my story differs a little from many folks here is that my choice of delivery system was a stick - not a pinch. Same poison in my veins.

About 80 or so days ago I found out about this site from a good friend and I have been lurking its hallways ever since. There is simply not a site on the internet that dishes up the special sauce that makes this place work: accountability. Believe me, I've looked, only to come back to KTC with my nose pressed to the window.

After urging from said friend and after having one of those out-of-left-field-WTF-sheer-panic-attack-gut-punch craves that I'm sure many of you are all-too-familiar with - I did what I needed to do to save my quit and posted roll in October. Day 30. It was late but it felt good and I thank October so much for allowing me to be their smokin' token.

I'd be honored to exchange digits and help anyone anyway I can.

I also promise not to bump anyone off roll either - because I know how that upsets you guys. ;)

Welcome man stick with it and post roll everyday and we will be here always to help. If ya want digits hit me up I'm always glad to share them and help.
Glad you are here FLLIP.
Stay strong, I'm with you all the way.

You are a bumper that is for sure, but the only way to screw up roll is to NOT BE ON IT!

Hell I been here 605 days and still bump people! It's gonna happen just try to catch it and fix it. Welcome aboard. Posting support in other groups and on intros also helps strengthen your quit!

You get a free pass on the bumps for about three or four days. Welcome.
