some we take to the grave, huh Mary?
That's right baby. They're not hurtful or dangerous to anyone, just a couple of things I can't seem to give up.

been there. I used to have 6 or 7 21oz bottles of coke a day. If I skipped one or two the headaches would start bad. I went from that to 3 12oz cans a day. Lost 20lbs and can go without for a week with no problems. I can drink a can of coke and go to bed and be asleep in my usual 5 minutes as well. Caffeine just doesn’t do much for me or to me anymore100%. If i don’t have caffeine every few hours the headache seeps it’s way in, to start....
you are what’s sometimes called a high functioning alcoholic. I had a roommate like that once. He would load up on hard liquor and walk out upright. I saw him once drink a couple hundred dollars of whiskey on the rocks and pass a sobriety test when he got stopped on the way home.I can literally take almost a fifth a vodka and get zero drunkeness. That's why I started this thread.
yes it is. Boredom is an excuse not a reason.I see a couple of you guys saying you may be doing what you're doing because of boredom. Is it still considered addiction at that point? Cause you arnt doing it cause you need to, but because there isnt anything else to do.
if they are calling your ex to hang out with them instead of you, she is either banging them or you should examine your behavior around people.As someone who's been in that position i do. I dont drink, smoke or dip. but, I live in the middle of no where and all of my friends chose my girlfriend over me when we broke up. So, for a long time i literally went to work then home then sat on the couch til i went to bed. Did that for almost a year. Having that kind of isolation made we want to drink and sometimes i wish i coul but, i just cant stomach any kind of alcohol.
as long as it is not unprotected sex with strangers no reason to give them up. By describing them as not hurtful or dangerous you have eliminated all the fun stuff. LolThat's right baby. They're not hurtful or dangerous to anyone, just a couple of things I can't seem to give up.
I tend to over do everything and anything. At 175lbs I can put away a fifth of vodka in a night. Buying shit for the cobra gets out of hand. Smoking is getting out of hand. Watching porn for a couple of hours and jerking off twice a day everyday, with a beautiful fiancee. I wanna have sex every 2 minutes. At work when OT is available, I work 70 hours of OT a week. Then I realize have habit issues and decide not to do shit and just watch tv. Then all I do is binge watch all day, all week. SVTP became a problem since I was on it at home, at work, while driving, while pumping gas etc. Decided to seek professional help, but seems nobody can pin point the issue. I wish my shrink would tell me I am depressed, but they say I am not depressed. Sometimes I wanna lock myself in a container and swallow the key.

My mom is terribke at this and its why we don't speak.Predisposition to addictive behaviors. Its a good thing you can stop the behaviors when they become a problem, just have to find a creative outlet to put that energy and time into, ya know? Work is a good one. Your fiancée would be another
My mom is terribke at this and its why we don't speak.
When I was young it was drugs. But she gets addicted to 1 thing and it becomes the focus of her waking time for a period until something else catches her. Even to the point where she'll get addicted to a food and only eat it for days at a time.
Her phone is real bad. Shes on it so much she has to plug it in 24/7 to keep it alive. I bet its on 10+ hours a day to the point where she won't get out of her pajamas to do anything because shes to into her phone.
oh my. That would certainly put a strain on ANY relationship. My mom's getting to that point with her phone, but eh, she's retired, and stays at home. So she can do whatever as long as it doesn't destroy my folks relationship or house.

I thought this was the MAJORITY of women
I don't think you're missing much there. Especially since you're not a liberal nut licker...On here way too much of the time. Since I got booted from that udder GT500 site I find myself spending more time with you miscreants then I should.
I would say it's not a problem with that infrequency as long as you stay in a safe environment. Then again if you're blacking out or stumbling around and falling down that's another story.Reading some of the replies makes me feel like some of the things I have done are a bigger problem then I make them out to be lol. I dont drink liquor very often but if I buy a fifth and sit down to have a few drinks at home I will end up finishing the bottle pretty much every time. Last time I did this I bought a bottle of Tequila on a work night with the intention of having 2 or 3 drinks, but it ended up being the whole bottle and I went into work the next day still buzzed. Is it a problem if that happens say once every 6 months or more?
Interesting point. The boredom is a real definitive trigger for me. Most of the time when I start drinking at home I'm not even craving alcohol. I don't have a physical addiction since I never have withdrawal symptoms even when abstaining for 3 or 4 days. I never drink during the morning or afternoon and never before four o'clock. I think I've also become what's known as a habitual drinker. Meaning: when it's a certain time of day it's time for my drinks.I see a couple of you guys saying you may be doing what you're doing because of boredom. Is it still considered addiction at that point? Cause you arnt doing it cause you need to, but because there isnt anything else to do.
I’m addicted/obsessed with lifting weights. I’m never satisfied and do it all the time even if I don’t feel like it. I could never stop.
I really don’t want to though.
I could have the best day but if I didn’t lift it would be a shit day unless it’s the weekend. I don’t let myself do it on the weekends.
The only time I’m not too bad is when I travel but when I get home it’s worse than ever.
That is a concern as are the many cancers that can arise from alcohol as well as damage to the heart. Fortunately my heavy drinking does not have a very long track record so I don't have a lot of mileage on my organs so to speak.It's time to start curbing that one back a bit. I'm watching my dad suffer through a lot of things due to addiction. One of those things is cirrhosis. Trust me, you don't want to visit that road.
