Doing chemicals in your 30's+ = Your an addict.
Even if it's only once every couple of months on a night out?
Surely an addict would need a more regular fix than this?
What if you never started dabbling till your 30s? Does that make you an addict?
What about if you've been dabbling for 30 years?
Started dabbling when I was 17 and am now 37 though only occasionally these days what with kids n all. WTF?! Does this make an addict....?
Been thinking -
Try harder ๐
Sorry if this offends but Weak minded = Arsehole IMHO...
There are obviously a few exceptions to the rule, some people just fall through lifes cracks, but i maintain 99.99% of addicts were gonna be addicts one way or the other long before they succumbed to their particular poison
Been thinking -Recreational drinking when your a teen = cool
Recreational drinking in your early/mid 20's = cool
Recreational drinking in your late 20's = what void are you avoiding?
Recreational drinking your 30's+ = Your an addict.

Lol, there has been (and still is) a substantial quantity of happy powder paid for and within 5 minutes reach of me, untouched for for 3 month until last saturday's rave club reunion, 8.30 kick till 4 am, and id say that less then 3 gramme got touched between me and my wife in that 24hour period we had the kids in the care of their grandparents.
My addiction is running rife!

I really really wish you would stop thinking Hora.
Neural receptor rearrangement configuration can be permanently changed and thus reward pathway and signalling damage which results in random response to the individual.
U31, I'm not offended because you're clearly wrong ๐ Why is someone who's weak-minded an arsehole? Some people chose to become addicts because of personality flaws, others because they use it as a screen to protect them from life. I simply don't understand why this makes them arseholes, unless you have a different definition of the word than I do.
They are arseholes in my thinking, because a personal weakness is something that can only be fixed by the person in question, and they CHOOSE not to, but hide behind chemicals or behavioural problems.
I don't think anyone actually CHOOSES to become an addict?
Your weakness appears to be a lack of empathy. Have you considered fixing this? To regress to my earlier post, I watched my grandad drink himself to death after my gran died, because he could not bear to be without her. At no point did I consider him to be an arsehole, I just felt an enormous amount of sympathy for him.
Maybe a rocket up the arse may have got him out of his melancholic state?
I been there, once, only one step away from the lowest if you know what mean..
facing losing everything, the house business, cars, farm i rented, stock etc and saw no way out, and came sooo ****in close!
So i went to my quack as soon as some sort of equilibrium was restored and told him of my intentions. he asked what i wanted him to do, so i asked for tablets to get me through.
He prescribed prozac, told me it was 3 week before any beneficial effect would take place.
I took them for a week, before i decided to drag my sorry arse out of the weeds and get my life back on track.
I now 6 years on, have the most gorgeous wife and family in the world, i live in a shit hole to be honest, dont have the former trappings of success, but am i happy? **** yeah.
Did that all myself, and got myself in that position where i was attractive enough to catch my gorgeous wife.
Empathy? **** yeah, i'm full of that, but sympathy for self pity? Not on your life. If i thought anything of the person affected, i would try and help, but if there was no evidence of any attempt at self help, i'd wash my hands of them.
