Linda -- as they say "It is never too late to quit" and for me that is the truth, after 44 years I have got myself to this point. Do not let that type of thinking get in your way, conquer then celebrate. The cravings will get less intense and less frequent, just let yourself know that you can get through the craving and keep doing what your are doing --- coming here and vocalizing the difficulties you are having, it is showing that you really want to get through this and we will do what we can to help you on this journey.

Blur, all above have covered the process pretty well. I too did not have a real plan, I just came to the conclusion that not only did I need to quit -- I really wanted to quit. Coming to this forum has helped greatly -- the articles to educate yourself, the videos, and then there are the people, all truly helped me get to this point. Just make the decision to leap and we will be here to help you along the way.

NOPE!!!!!!!

NOPE!!!!!!!

Welcome aboard Christa. Sorry about the difficulties but I am glad that you have made the decision to quit again -- now lets make this the sticky quit. There are many people here that will give you some great advice and welcome you with open arms. Just remember to come here often to research everything you can about this addiction, play some games, meet some pretty wonderful (and sometimes strange) people. Also remember to do your daily "NOPE" pledge -- it really does help.
