To straight edge people: how do you do that?

Like drugs and alcohol makes things so much easier to deal with. I have to hit the Dutch every day before work or else I will snap at everyone. I鈥檓 a short tempered person lol but when I鈥檓 high I鈥檓 so calm and friendly 馃槀 the same when I sneak in booze with me. I mean I do it on my days off too but I save my pills for then. Idk man it just makes life easier. I couldn鈥檛 imagine life sober again, I鈥檓 so much happier now, and I used to talk shit that I would never drink or do drugs.

@FlatEarthChocolateCookie you can鈥檛 get addicted to weed lol
@MorbidCynic whoever says that is a moron. People do it because of how it makes them feel. Some can鈥檛 go a day without that feeling to feel as though they can cope. Like yourself. It is an addiction of the mind rather than the body

People use weed in the wrong way

@FlatEarthChocolateCookie You can't get PHYSICALLY addicted to weed. You can get psychologically addicted to anything in the world.

@FlatEarthChocolateCookie it doesn鈥檛 have any addictive properties, so no I鈥檓 not a moron lol I went a good 2 months clean with no problem to pass a drug test 馃槀

@MorbidCynic Sugar doesn't have any addictive properties, I'm addicted to that. Video gaming is addictive, some people are addicted to running, just cos something hasn't got any ability to form a chemical dependency or physical addiction doesn't mean you can't get addicted to it.

@BlueMetalChick I think you just don鈥檛 want to give it up lol

@MorbidCynic Don't want to give what up?

@BlueMetalChick sugar and video games. It鈥檚 nit an addiction lol people who claim that probably just don鈥檛 want to give it up since they arent actual addictions.

@MorbidCynic I'm not addicted to video games though.

Sugar, on the other hand, I am absolutely addicted to. When I haven't had any for long periods of time I get shaky and twitchy, and my attention span gets short and I start talking really fast.

If you can't stop doing something even when you try, you're addicted. You don't need to form a chemical dependency on it for it to be considered an addiction. If that were true, then cocaine, crack, LSD, angel dust, and ecstasy would all be just as impossible to get addicted to as marijuana is.

Granted, you can overdose on all those drugs and you can't OD on weed, but the possibility of addiction remains the same.

@BlueMetalChick well I stopped when I needed to. I did no drugs or alcohol for a good two months to pass a drug test. It was no problem lol it鈥檚 just life was a bit more dry

@MorbidCynic Then that would lead me to wonder about your brain chemistry. And believe me, as someone with a royally fucked up brain chemistry myself, I know how that goes 馃檮
