Sobriety (substance or otherwise)

[midgetbob]

It irritates me when people need to get drunk or High because their life at the current isn't great, and feel the need to take a substance to feel better. That is weak minded and I can't possibly how people actually like it.

How is it irritating to you that someone else decides their life dictates that they want a beer or whatnot to make themselves feel better?

With your logic, you'd be irritated that people are taking medication. Their life isn't going so well, so them taking their medication to feel better is irritating.

You could also say that (using your logic) that you'd be irritated that people laugh. Something isn't going so well, so somebody makes them laugh. Whoops... just released some endorphins in the brain and altered their mood.

Listen here KIDDO!

The mentioned people you have posted have mental disorders obviously. Depression is a mental disorder and you DON'T feel as good AS YOU SHOULD BE! Now, the ones I am talking about usually have depression, but they aren't the brightest ingots and find pleasure from Drinking or smoking. Don't reply to me unless you knew what you were talking about...

Oh I'm so sad, I'm going to get drunk as shit. ****ing really? Weakness. We deserve without their pathetic lives, let them fester in their own despair.

I love looking at the serdirances of others.

One: you're personal attempts of insulting me by trying to attack my age and maturity level is in vain. I'm far from a 'kiddo' and my reply was merely trying to show you how you're blind accusation that it's irritating that someone wants a drink / smoke / what-have-you shouldn't be any concern of yours. It's not weak willed, it's a choice that they're allowed to make. Especially since half of the statement is legal, and the other half is in a very grey area in many states.

Two: It's NOT obvious that the people I mentioned have mental disorders. As for depression, I've fought that demon and won. I've both been hospitalized and had to see therapists for it; along with a small slew of medications to 'stabilize' myself. Therefor, if I WERE talking about what you ASSUMED I was talking about, I think I have a fairly solid platform to voice my opinion.

Instead, I was showing how your argument could be applied to everyday medication uses. Have a headache? Don't take that Tylenol, or you'd be irritated at them. Stomachache? Better not take that Pepto. Just got a tooth pooled? No codeine for you!

You were stating you didn't understand how someone who had a bad day would want to do something to alter their mood. Everything I just mentioned, including laughing, sex, running and exercise, dancing... the list goes on and on for things that can give you an "endorphin rush" and, thus, alter your mood. So I posed that thinking it's weak willed to try altering your mood to make yourself feel better is in error.

Three: If someone decides to get drunk because they had a bad day, you just said it's better off without them. Let them die then? They're in a bad mood and try making themselves feel better and you think the Vox populi is that the world is better off without them? I can't even begin to describe how much of a grievous error this line of thought is.

Four: If you're going to try insulting someone, at least get the word right.

Five: Don't reply unless you know what you're talking about.



(but not too much... as that'd be altering your mood... and we don't want people irritated with us... let alone believing the world is better off without us!)

It seems i may have been beaten and I may have to accept defeat.
But I can only go by what I see.

So instead of dealing wwith the problems, I should just drink? Hide my problems?
If I have a toothache, I will use medication, but not MIND altering medication which is what I was getting at. And it is only to hold me off until I can get it checked. Yes, we can do without them. To bad this isn't like pulse. The weak get eaten...>.>

I'm really loving the ignore user feature on this forum, I don't ever have to look at messages from that genius 11 year old again.

I think people should live their lives how they want to. It's not good to do illegal stuff because it puts society in danger (drunk driving for instance), but if people wanna drink a few or smoke a blunt, if it's not bothering you then what should it matter? I think people are far too nosy for their own good these days.

EDIT: PS beer me in Che and bob?
