I was about to say, you still drink Green Goddess? No addictions here, unless you count the fact that I can't let my lady go for good even though I just ain't down for her touch any more. I'm weak for women, must give that up to see if any other addictions pop up.
trees, trains, computers and the kind of world i'd rather be living in, even the first three are kind of aligories more then specific to what anyone is likely to assume i mean by them, and my dreaming, daydreams, fantasies, speculations, along with actual while asleep dreaming, of that kind of a world, these are the things i more or less obssess on. and getting the most of gratification out of doing so, bennifits more from a clear head, then ANY sort of neurotropic substance. so i'm sort of addicted intillectually, to these things i value, and find gratifiction in; bringing tecnology into harmony with nature and the aesthetic gratifiction of that harmony and conceiving of it. and like all creatures, there's a certain gratification in exploring mazes of the unknown. =^^= .../\...
Caffeine and I'd have to agree on daydreaming cos I never thought of it as an addiction. It's rather a constant state for me!
Cigarettes, and chocolate.. Recently like the past two months I've been absolutely in love with chocolate
Hmm, let's see.. Cider (alcohol generally, not alcoholic but I could NO WAY be teetotal) Hipforums Caffeine Books.. seriously I'd rather go without my computer than without my books =/
Pretty sure everyone is addicted to something or another. I'm addicted to caffeine. Sad, but horribly true
I"m impressed with the lot of ya; not treating the A word like some boogeyman. An addiction doesn't have to be harmful. I think it takes a degree of humility to admit an addiction, even though it is true: everyone's addicted to something, even if it's just the chemicals that fire by conversing with someone. Granted some addictions can be toxic to the body, and that's where the distinction comes. I'm addicted to pot, but I don't consider it a very harmful addiction. I'm also addicted to the new, the unusual, and the unknown.
music, my withdrawal symptoms include celibacy and outbreaks of gardening. and im addicted to the self satisfaction i get when i makes someone feel better about themselves.
music, for sure. I don't know what i'd do without it. And i'm not gonna lie, i'm addicted to the internet, especially since i've been able to get tons and tons of music from it.
I'm ashamed to say, I'm addicted to anti-depressants. I can barely go a day without taking the pills. I told the doctor I want to cut back, so it's getting a little better at least.
no shit, moroccan? a sharp dude like you I wouldn't guess you had a head full of those. Not that they necessarily make anyone dumb, they just neutralize me I guess. tricyclic antidepressants are straight from satan imo. I had 4 zolofts once in high school. I puked and had diarrhea but I was buzzed for a solid week. It was a pretty good week though, I didn't think I could be so sociable.
I've been taking different antidepressants, in different combinations, at different doses for a few years... at first I thought it made me dumb but after about a year, I balanced out and I actually think my mind is a little clearer than before. I go to the doctor every couple of months just to check up on it and I usually ask to change the dose or try something new...there's something exciting about experimenting with myself like that. It's legal and it's paid for by the drug plan for my dad's work...and the doctor's appointments are paid for by the Canadian medicare system. It's all too easy to end up with an addiction. I'm not proud of it but I'm not planning to quit (which would be a serious challenge) anytime soon. I'd have to agree with you, SSRI's are evil. I used to take Effexor--I wanted to quit cause of the awful side effects so I reduced the dose slowly. The withdrawal symptoms were so painful that it took a whole year from the time I decided to quit until I could go without taking it every 24 hours. I've stopped taking it, but I'm still taking other antidepressants (not SSRI's.)
