FWIW I find that it's not too much strain to not fall back as long as you're not in the habit in the first place. Once you've 'dried out' and broken the cycle it's not too hard to say 'this is a sometimes food'. It's habit forming, not addictive per se. Certainly back when I had way more trouble with booze. Keeps it special too. It gets very boring if it's constant and you have a high tolerance, most of the good stuff goes away Edit but I'm not trying to encourage you, you have to do what's best for you and if that means abstinence then I really don't want to come across as questioning that

I had that thought too, and figured that the smart way to handle it would be to detect an increase in weight as a second person enters the stall. But the way to beat that would be to already be having sex before you enter, so that one person can walk in with the other person wrapped around them. Welcome to the sex toilet arms race!

I got so used to switching myself off at the end of the day to deal with everything and convinced myself that it was still helping me. The mental space it gives is invaluable, I agree, and that just became a fog with daily use. I'm still miserable but at least it's cheaper and I can actually do stuff in the evenings now.

Also agreed! It's better as something to look forward to. Took me about a week to dry out and get past the habit. Some people have a much harder time from what I've read, with physical withdrawal symptoms. I had some but they weren't too bad. Deketh fucked around with this message at 14:03 on Nov 12, 2019 |

Surprise T Rex posted:There's a lot of good resources online for self-teaching code stuff if you'd like to pick it up with a view to switching careers. If you're interested I could maybe try and effort post a bit about how I got into it and recommend some stuff? A lot of the advice has been frustrating like this, like a friend who plays about with raspberry pi and stuff like that who claims coding is all just copying things from stackexchange and then changing it to fit the rest of your code. I also bought a uDemy course that was reduced from £200 to £10 a few christmases ago on how to learn c# for the unity engine, but it gradually devolved into the same bullshit - here's how to look up what code to copy on the wiki, with no explanation of what the different elements were. If you don't know the underlying syntax or the logic of the difference between a global and local variable, you may as well be copying gibberish. You need that underlying framework to know what you're doing. I know MIT are supposed to have their courses online for free, but I've never looked it up. I suppose my problem is that I self learned HTML/CSS, but then unfortunately by the time I actually got round to seeing if I could make websites for other people, everyone wanted web 2.0 stuff and I discovered I didn't know enough for it to be a marketable skill. What I would want is more specifics about "here's how you get a qualification that coding jobs will accept" or "here's how to get a coding job circumventing not having a qualification."

You can't choose what turns you on, so should not have to feel ashamed of it as long as you don't harm anyone. Solo sexythink and playtime with consenting partners are a-okay. Also you don't have to do anything that you do not really want to. Some do not like 'standard' sex, but there is enormous pressure on us to make that the thing we do. Asexuals exist, as well as people all along the spectrum to nymphomania. Try to figure out the things that you are really into, it's way more fun that way Imagine the pointer is a dildo.

Hoooray, after 3 weeks I’m finally being discharged! Not over yet as I need to follow this iv course in the hospital everyday until Tuesday, but I elected for that cus I’m tired of being in the ward and am good enough to go home, also need blood work every 2 weeks and will be visiting TB clinics every month for the next 9 months along with the tablets to complete the course and monitor progress. Feels good to get the gently caress out finally though. Bonus note to no go back to work until next Wednesday earliest on light duties depending on how I go over the weekend Can’t wait to play games watch new Rick and Morty and unleash my jism to the nastiest porn there is to offer in the spirit of this thread. Probably a bit too early to have sex yet, plus I don’t wanna rip these IV lines out accidentally. Diet Crack fucked around with this message at 14:13 on Nov 12, 2019 |

Weed is my only real addiction and I'm trying to kick it. For some reason nothing else is as hard to kick apart from maybe sugar, even mephedrone was easier and I loved that poo poo. It just makes me extremely, extremely stupid and actually makes me sleep worse not better and be more anxious. Been trying to quit entirely for a year or so now and managed 6 months before falling off the wagon, now 2 months. Takes me about 6 weeks to start feeling properly normal and good. Mind you I smoked heavily for like 10 years straight. It's tough cause everyone I know chooms every spare moment

Sexual guilt is incredibly common in the UK because it's a socialised emotional response left over from the days when we were a predominantly Christian country. Even though religion has been separated from British identity over the last couple of centuries the repression remains. As separation of social norms from religion is essential for living in full luxury gay space communist paradise this means being unashamed of your sexual desires isn't just healthy, it's praxis.

Jippa posted:No someone posted a really in-depth thing about it in TGRS. There is a whole really weird connection between the southern states and a weird fascination of white guys being afraid/attracted to black guys loving their wives. It goes back hundreds of years. Apple used a song ("Gigantic", by The Pixies) based on a film that references exactly this phenomenon in a massive ad campaign. It's not even like it was one of Black Francis' weird multi-layer stream-of-consciousness lyrics which don't even make sense when you write them down, Kim Deal wrote and sung it and it's about as straightforward as you can ask for, referencing "a big black mass" and a "hunk of love". The chorus, which they used over and over and over again in the ad, really doesn't leave much to the imagination - "Gigantic, gigantic, gigantic, a big big love". Only tangentially related but I still giggle every single time I think of that advert.

The creator had written captions to the effect that people don't find redheaded men attractive, but they do find redheaded women very attractive, so the solution for redheaded men was to try to be women, in order to be accepted and loved and have some kind of worth and also be humiliated in a good way. At least some anti-ginger prejudice is echoes of old racism - Jewish people and Irish people both have considerably higher rates of red hair. And I say this as someone who made a ginger joke last night, oops.

It’s not cheap either and I’m always consciously aware that I’m just passing time away and actively not achieving anything, whilst being consciously aware that I’m just being a vegetable and it was bothering me inside but the addiction was very real and I’d make excuses for it. Being in a relationship and justifying £80 on weed instead of going out for dinner and activities was making me a little depressed inside. It’s been 3 weeks but I feel that first month will be the biggest hurdle, and I’ve removed every source or link to getting any that I could find and have promised myself that it’s time to grow up and move on after this long abuse of it and get on with life. I will miss aspects of music and gaming with it, but know it’s entirely possible to continue enjoying those things without it. Good luck! Just gotta stick to your guns and stay strong when cold turkey. I did it with cigarettes so I know I’m capable.
