Not really no.I am drinking more often lately tho.
Quote from: True Velox on January 22, 2015, 02:32:38 AMNot abuse, but I know what abstinence problems feel like, to a lesser degree. After the chest surgery more than three years ago I was fed morphine intravenously, and took morphine pills for about two weeks after that. After I stopped taking them, even though I had a period of slowly decreasing the doses, I became nauseous, dizzy, and sweaty. And if that's what happens with medical-grade morphine that's supposed to be less addicting, then I can understand how breaking a real addiction can be nigh impossible.Well that's a bit different, I suppose. Something like morphine addiction if you were hospitalized for a while is pretty problematic.

I said defensive, not offensive.

Something like morphine addiction if you were hospitalized for a while is pretty problematic.I wasn't really addicted, I took the required doses on time and stopped when I was supposed to. I guess that I was technically addicted! but it didn't control me. I can see how someone could become addicted in a similar situation, though. If someone has a habit of drinking alcohol or smoking (as many of my classmates had at the time, despite being underage), falling prey to medical grade drugs is probably more likely. I just felt physically bad, but I just wanted it to go over rather than continuing to take pills.

I only responded to this thread the way I did because I know that Slash has been abusing dangerous substances the past few days.Even though I fuck around with Camnator, I don't have issues with things like weed, tobacco, and alcohol in reasonable amounts. However I have little to no tolerance for just about everything else. Medical drugs weren't really something I thought about when I posted that, and the only time I'd be sympathetic is if someone ended up dependent after being prescribed by a doctor. Anything else is your own goddamn fault because you were being an idiot.

My mistake (though some do that).But rather, taking my eyes off what's important. Losing focus.

Yeah kinda.That doesn't make much sense in regards to my question. I'm not concern with whether or not someone decided to dose themselves.I'm simply asking you if you believe that having a weak power of will is a distinguished attribute for an idiot/moron because that appears to be what you're implying.
You do realize that sentence was taken out of context, right? I'm talking about medical drugs.

If you fucked up with medical drugs because you either diagnosed yourself or didn't follow your doctor's directions properly and became dependent, then yes.
And continue to act like a dipshit.

I'll say it again: addiction is a medical condition arising from certain genetic and neurological predispositions--like all other human behaviour. Condemning druggies because they 'chose' to take drugs isn't only counter-productive, it's borderline immoral.
