hi lolly, that's a great thing you want to do!! i'm curious tho, why did the cold turkey not work before? from my understanding of addiction or useage one usually is either trying to gain a feeling or get rid of one. that is the payoff for users usually. so have you used in the past to forget something for a while or felt down or hyper and just wanted to chill, etc.? unless you get at the root of the reason you have used i feel you will continue to use...now, or pick it back up after u quit.
idk but maybe you could give us some feedback and be able to help you more with suggestions. i'm in recovery so i do know some good tips but hopefully you will respond first and i can add more.
ooops..sorry, welcome to pc!!
