what if i do have adhd and one of the symptoms is that i'm easily distracted and go post on gE a bunch and then they cure me and i stop? :surprised:

whatever you're already addicted to, you'll just do 100% more and 100% as intense.

you mean you're terrified of that happening if you don't drink or if you do drink?

If I completely stop drinking. Like I'd become "that guy"

the "you can have just as much fun not drinking" is only said by people who have either never drank or quit drinking for some reason because they kept rough ridin' up their job or made their old lady super mad for some reason or got 3rd DUIto try and trick themselves. it's scientific fact that you cannot actually have as much fun not drinking. the same goes for almost all other drugs in responsible quantities. the science is settled on all of this stuff.

So real life Benja story: I was heavily reliant on prescription adhd drugs for awhile, and literally all I did was play call of duty, workout and go to the bars. I did almost no actual studying or normal human interaction of any kind. I hung out with almost 100% bros and wore a bandana at the gym one time. I would not recommend it.

workouts were better?

Caffeine, alcohol, cigs, and bbs'n. And I might be a sex addict too. :frown:

do you constantly jo to internet porn?  like it's a problem in your relationship.  because if you don't, then you're not.  slamming on a vag that you're committed to whenever you can does not qualify.
Lol. Nah. I mean I look at porn once and awhile, but not in a crazy amount of way. I just think about it all the time. High drive I guess.

legitimate male "sex addicts" are exclusively pervos or outright sex criminals who ruin their lives with constant porn use and/or prostitues and/or rapery.  they're not just having sex with their girlfriend a bunch.
Yeesh. Thank god. Not a sex addict you guys. Dodged a bullet there.

everyone saying caffeine should know that you're being tricked.  caffeine is a fake drug. 
it doesn't wake you up, nor does it give you any energy.  these are myths perpetuated by big caffeine.

Pretty much anything I've enjoyed in life, I wanna do a lot more of. That's pretty common you guys. Maybe being a addict is a good thing.

yeah, I mentioned it before in this thread but people confuse addiction with having a problem (which is a different thread). there are a lot of awesome things to be addicted to out there. the key is finding them and getting as addicted as you can.

Yeah, just try to become really good at managing your addictions. Like, instead of meth i'll go on a jog today.

(A) More than 7,500 milligrams but less than 15,000 milligrams, Class B misdemeanor

this is weird to me.  i can have some of it every so often, but not too much or i'm a criminal.  is there anything else out there like this?  i can't think of anything off the top of my head. 

i can buy as much caffeine or booze or ciggies as often as i want.  it gives me pause due to strangeness.  stupid rough ridin' meth people.

I believe firearms and ammunition fall into this category. Maybe not necessarily illegal but once you've got what big government deems a "stockpile" you're going to draw a lot of attention you do not want.

Chips. Today at the store I avoided everything I didn't want to buy. Got to the chip aisle, couldn't contain myself. Whenever I go on a diet I make Mrs. Stevesie hide the chips in the house or take them all to her work.

I've actually been denied my claritin a few times and have made family members go get some for me.. You're only allowed like one box a month when I use at least 2. In my defense, I do have super bad allergies. I probably don't need that much.. But the sudafed wakes me up because it speeds up the heart rate

you and your family member are breaking the law of the state of kansas.  you guys are probably on some meth task force watch list.  those exist.  they use the pill logs from stores.

I know that I'm on the watch list.. I've been thinking about making meth lately actually because I figured why not? I'm already on the watch list and I could use some extra tuition money.. Plus I got all the basics from breaking bad
