wow it frightens me that there are people as ignorant as you in this world.

tell you what you have my pain and i can be a normal human being again.
i have lost 16 kilograms of weight because i can't eat a full meal, i also have failing spinal vertebrae that will one day leave me unable to walk for that i take morphine into my syetem 24 hours a day, i do not sleep most nights as i don't want to take sleeping pills all the time, but trust me if you don't sleep for three or four nights you too would take sleeping pills.
just a thought friend

I'm glad AlreadyJaded said that because that is what I was thinking too. Addiction has nothing really to do with the brain! I wish we could all be as perfect as you.

nothing to do with perfection if you read the blog with your intellect then you woulkd understand what i mean nothing to do with ill related diseases poeple are not reading what i am saying you are jumping on the bandwagon i am not picking on people with disaeses here ..,, i am referring to normal people who have decided to become wasters becasue they are lazy read it and you will see what i am saying i suppose if i have to i could write a million people who have all sorts of illnesses
this is why the world is in such a mess becasue people jump before they check whats on the other side of the wall
carefully read it instead of attacking it
i am directing myself to the people that are wasters no sick people
this is not about ignornace its about truth and the people that spew rhetoric are usually the first to run
no one is perfect at all i am merely letting people know how weak addicts are and how they can help thmeslves not sit thie r weak and helpless
people with illnesses are the ones that need help
addiction is a choice illness is not
its easy for therapists to say this is an illness becasue they write medication
we all know therapists .....THE RAPISTS and psycho therapists are PSYCHO THE RAPSIT they are paid to rape the meind not make it stronger

therapist sit there and all they want is the kick back from the money they make from writing prescription
a therapist will only help you as far as the books they have been bound by in college and university they will never give you the hrsh truth becasue then you might get cured and they will not get their kickbacks

that IS exactly it though, bejewled and Bombay, Addiction has everything to do with the brain. Well, at least one-third a part of the diagnostic criteria:
it is INDEED a bio-PSYCHO-social disease.
i won't plead with the author, to explain why, if thy brain is so powerful, he/she not put this "mind power" doctrine into better use by addressing those sick with cancer...
though these patients did not choose their ailment, their present condition is certainly *dumpster-like". Could we not then postulate that they, too, are "weak-minded" to not use their magnificent grey matter to eradicate the invading cancer cells?
and while indeed, these cells are not inanimate objects, neither are the ORGANIC, i.e. LIVING, chemicals used in said cigs and/or pain pills.
To clarify, and for the obvious need for repetition due to the author's insularity:
the chemical design of addictive substances are very much *animated*. Unless the writer has had a successful *tete-a-tete* with one, the analysis is invalid.
loveandblessings, paperlily

paperlilly if you listen to experst they have large egos they do not like to be proven wrong and to make apoint and win their case they inject fear into a situation that ottherwise can function without the bases of their knowledge and fear .

fear is what companies use to control americans and large populatons this is why french people are not scared to rally american are they are filled with fear its a no brainer
