CinnamonGirl I'm addicted to nicotine actually I'm addicted to anything that is addictive so I try to cut back, especially with nicotine (I have bad asthma, worse than jim morrison's) so from today I tried smoking only 3 cigs a day, it's now 19:43 and today I only smoked 2, I'm dying for another one cause the last time I smoked was 4 hours ago but if I smoke now I'll smoke 4 cigs today cause I HAVE to smoke before I'm going to bed.. I decided that week I can eat anything and even do anything I want just smoke 3 cigs a day but I think I'll go to my window again in a couple of mins and make it 4 cigs a day... at least today... I gotta stop being so impulsive 010606 ... Sol im addicted to this site, its ruining my study 010606 ... nocturnal you're a blathaholic. 010606 ... Sol absolutely, do they sell blatherettes or something like those patches you stick on your skin? 010606 ... nocturnal at work why would you wanna quit? school work sucks anyway if that's your concern. 010606 ... Sol yeah, but i was in a very hard exam today, and was thinking about blather, a little to far methinks? 010606 ... nocturnal at work nah. happens to everyone...I uh, think. of course, I've reached an incurable level in my addiction, so maybe I'm not one to be handing out advice on the subject. 010606 ... Dafremen Agreed. You're an incorrigible blathaholic for sure. They have a blather patch at work. It's called Internet usage monitoring. They say it's pretty effective, but I'm sort of pushing the envelope so it hasn't affected me much. As for YOU chicklette. I wanna know why you don't blather more in the afternoons. It's getting boring as HELL now. I need a blather a minute at least lady. P.S. Jo0 ess adeektaid to me! Jo0 know eets troo! I am how jo0 say, a hart hapit to breek. 010606 ... nocturnal at work well, yesterday I couldn't do anything after I left work b/c we kept losing power at my house due to some tropical storm or something. my dad turned off the computer and refused to turn it back on till today. so that's my excuse for yesterday. and I'm only slightly addicted to you. I think I could quit whenever I wanted. 010606 ... Dafremen Words Bah! Enuff words woooman. 010606 ... nocturnal at work well, you're the one that wanted a blather per minute. if I'm allowed usage of no more words, you've just undone your own instructions. fine by me. I'll just sit back and read. 010606 ... Dafremen Oh that little Latino guy? Don't mind him, he's just here detailing my keyboard and snuck that in there. P.S. Try not to be so predictable next time dear..I saw that response coming 5 miles away. Hell I saw it coming right before I hit the blather button. : ) 010606 ... nocturnal at work yes sir! any other instructions as to how I should go about living my life? any other way I should or should not try to be? I'm desperately awaiting your response as I am useless without your guidance. 010606 ... Dafremen I'm making a list...I'll letcha know. By the way, stop slouching while you're at it. Bad posture isn't very becoming. (best parental voice) I'm not trying to tell you how to live your life dear. But don't you think you should try to be a little more clever when you blather? The Myers boy is clever when HE blathers. Why can't you be more like the Myers boy. What's his name again? Bernie?! What's that Myers boy's first name? You know...the short one with the red hair. David? Yea why can't you be more like David Myers down the street? I'm sure if you just worked harder you could be more clever, that's all I'm saying. Have you MET the Myers boy? Oh he's soo polite and quite a hard worker too if you know what I mean. When are YOU going to meet a NICE boy for a change and grow UP?! 010606 ... nocturnal at work know what's funny? I actually did sit up straight for a second there when I read that. I'm back to slouching now, though. 010606 ... Dafremen Almost like I had a camera pointing atcha huh? heheh (Play it off do0d maybe she won't notice the little pinhole...) P.S. I missed you a little bit this last hour or so. 010606 ... nocturnal at work you think I don't recognise your addiction for me? I told you I don't know how many times now, I know you love me, even if you won't say it yourself. 010606 ... Dafremen P.P.S. In my defense it was probably more out of boredom than anything else. 010606 ... Dafremen P.P.P.S. Besides Jo0 no that eet ess Jo0 hoo ess adeektaid to me 010606 ... nocturnal at work nice cover, but I'm not buyin it. 010606 ... Dafremen P.P.P.P.S. Uf corse Jo0 wo0t not be doeen da bying of it. In Jor adeektaid mind I am Jors already. Why den woot jo0 tink dat jo0 woot neet to by it? But you WILL by it, for jo0 ar adeektaid passt all help. 010606 ... nocturnal at work that sounds like a challenge to me. if you want me to prove I'm not addicted to you, but that it is indeed the other way around, I will do so with pleasure. 010606 ... Dafremen And when I disappear as a result? Hurt so deeply by the affront that I run off and join the Cult? (or the Cure I always get those names mixed up) Do it. I suppose if there was an easy way to make me disappear forever, this would be it. 010606 ... Dafremen I'm sorry to announce that at approximately 1:32PM CST our dear nocturnal passed away. She will be sorely missed. The cause of death was listed as an overdose of ME. I would like to apologize in advance to all of my fellow blatherskites for whatever small part I played in nocturnal's untimely demise. Just remember, it's not addiction that kills people...it's not giving it up that does them in. Would that she had given up this obsession of hers before it was too late. Alas, now all we can do is mourn our loss and hope that in death she has finally overcome the addiction that haunted her every waking moment and which, in the end, took her young life. 010618 ... Dafremen P.S. Knock on wood. 010618 ... nocturnal at work I said it before, and I'll say it again. I hate you, you incorrigible piece of crap. 010618 ... Dafremen Hark! A voice from beyond the grave! Is that you nocturnal? Knock once for yes...twice for no. (You never can be too careful with spirits you know. They like to fool people.) 010618 ... nocturnal at work hey, remember that time I said daffy makes me wanna explode and scream forever? something like that anyway. well that urge just came rushing back. 010618 ... demitria monde thraam The meaning of the word "addiction" has become diluted and twisted by television talkshows, tabloids and other sleazoid mass media. True addiction occurs when a drug habituates one on a physical level, causing an actual change in body chemistry, neurotransmission, metabolism. Alcohol, heroin, cocaine, benzodiazepine tranquilizers (Valium, Xanax, Ativan, etc.) and speed are drugs of addiction. I once thought nicotine was part of that list but having quit smoking in 1994 with about a day and a half cravings tops and then no urge left to smoke another one ever again, I'd have to say no, not addiction. Psychological habit. I even am beginning to wonder if the tobacco companies invented the whole notion that cigarettes were addictive. "More addicting than heroin" it is said by many. Bullpucky. I've been addicted to heroin. For two years. Quitting cigarettes was NOTHING. It was a joke! I do note that I quit smoking under favourable circumstances - I hadno daily, regular contact with friends, coworkers, etc. who I had a "ritual cigarette" thing going with. If I had more smoking people around me all the time it might have been harder. But still: "addiction" to the *ritual* of smoking is still a habit and not an addiction - there's a world of difference between wanting a cigarette when you're quitting smoking and wanting a shot of junk when you are in cold turkey withdrawal. Whoever came up with the "ore addicting than heroin" bullshit WAS NEVER ADDICTED TO HEROIN. One does not develop "addictions" to things like internet use, sex, marijuana or gambling. All these things create psychological habit and yes, getting out of these habits can be difficult. But suddenly cutting yourself off from these things does not send the body into upheaval. (And considering my internet habit, it's a damned good thing, too.) 010618 ... Norm It's much less complicated than everyone makes it out to be. The only thing I don't want to risk, is breaking a crack or heroin addiction. Cause once you hear it, it just makes you think... "Once I did crack the only thing I wanted more in the world was more crack." 010827 ... Norm Addictions aren't really so bad if you can afford it. So steal, sell drugs, bootleg, rob, maybe even get a legitimate job if you have to. 011115 ... Aaron theres psyc/mental addiction.. and theres physical addiction.. i'm never been phisicaly addicted to anything that i know of.. but i still somke between a pack and two packs a day of cigs.. with none of the so called ritual cigs, except after eating.. i have used everything from herroin to crack.. i don't think i have actually phisicaly been addicted to anything... though i KNOW for a fact that i have been lurking somewhere between habit and mental addiction....i recently quit using all drugs.. except for caffeen and cigs, and my psyc meds... i'd still be using is i could.. but i would end up locked up in a psyc ward somewhere... not good.. 011116 ... ilovepatsajak it's not a habit it's cool i feel alive if you don't have it you're on the other side i'm not an addict maybe that's a lie 011116 ...
