It’s YOUR choice, so what if if you are drinking, drugging, gambling (mind you, in my very limited, small IQ – that really can cause BIG problems), over-eating or whatever else you did (do – note – I cut and pasted) compulsively.

Make up your own mind. I know it’s easy for me sitting here in fairyland (Oz) where a lot of the treatments are free and you don’t have these enormous financial burdens to choose from – also Crack never made it here – too big a market in the Northern Hemisphere (you lot!) to worry about it – Coke is even a very rich man’s drug here. Good – it’s a dumb, junk drug. To short a high which makes you ant more and more etc. – see gambling.

Just the same old same olds. Smack (harmless until you die or get HCV/AIDS). Lots of ICE and crystal meth (we are close to the Phillipines where this crap is purified- gee, that’s a party starter – having someone trying to cut their wrists while screaming out “Jesus hates me” – never tried it but, boy, if anyone is addicted to THAT – they really have my sympathy. Oh, and the money spinner – Ecstasy (please drink water wisely if you choose MDMA – I know everyone loves you and you love them, but at its core MDMA is a Rhino trank – they are big and it’s hard to work out how much we need to hydrate).

Oh – how could I forget the one that does all the damage here (probably 95% or more – booze, booze and booze – bashing’s, domestic violence, gang rapes, cars – need I go on (I think there a few pages on that) – that’s the legal one of course so it is OK. We get it when we are 18 – in the US it’s 21 isn’t it? Probably should be 101 (joke – I know there are sensible people out there – or they say they are – why should they suffer because of the 85% that cannot handle it – any one done any thing they regretted or hurt others when they were drunk – I have, but I guess I’m the only one). Looking at the crime sheets in front of me, I really have been naughty. I’ve neglected energy drinks and tobacco – they just kill with no fun so that’s probably my grave as well (I’ll need a big one).

Sorry – back to ice c. 5 min. ago) – how to make friends and influence people.

Don’t forget the other biggie “Pot” – harmless! Just ask the 78 y.o parent of a 40 y.o who just can’t seem to stop, never had a job or relationship and loves video games. I think I may be contradicting myself here – however my point is, is – if it’s not harming others (i.e. “Harmless ole’ POT) it is your call entirely when you want to stop. Maybe never?

Is it your call? Wanna’ join the army?
