If I quit cold turkey without a plan in place how not to relapse this time I I am setting myself up for failure. In the past going cold turkey leaves me in bed for 3-5 days with major fatigue and flulike symptoms not to mention major depression. I'm working on planning out a taper off program which I did the first time I stopped and it was a month of staying off uppers vs 5-7 days off with cold turkey.

I want to treat this with patience and conscientiousness as opposed to rapid reactionary measures. My body is what is dependent now, which I cannot control, my real Self does not want this aanymore. For the first time my quitting is because Iwant to for myself , not because I feel guilty or just 'think' I should.

Am I just making excuses?
