not at all..
you are just a fucking idiot. go on then. spill. what were you addicted to? lemsip?

think carefully before you answer tho, i smoked my first spliff when i was 11. first coke at 13, by the time i was 14 i had a 3 gram a day speed habit. at one point i was smoking 3 ounces of skunk a month, and my record for acid is 8 black microdots in 6 hours.

in all that time, i never needed therapy. never needed NA, never hurt anyone, never stole to feed my habits and NEVER BECAME A WHINY LITTLE ORANGE TOSSER LIKE YOU.

BRING ON THE LEMSIp TANGOMAN!!

i think you're confusing the issue of addiction with anger at an internet stranger.
I mean, i wouldn't admit addiction on b3ta and not expect to get mocked for it but by the same token i wouldn't expect an adult to actually make a post going "GOD LOOK AT ALL THESE DRUGS I'VE TAKEN"

I think Az is pointing out that he managed to deal with the issue without NA,
not a 'ooh look how hardcore I am'.

You sicken me
There are days when I wake up, and see the sun shining through the weak blue sky, and I feel happy and refreshed and vitalised by the coming day. And then there are days when I see posts like this and realise that out in that terribly beautiful world are patronising, heartless, unsympathetic oneupmen like you, who trivialise the achievements of others, piss in the face of the individual's triumph, and lash scorn on all that makes each meek little individual his own little hero. I hope your heart is stifled by your own bile, you revolting little urchin.

he sees SikRik's post as an attempt to glorify a minor psychological crutch, which in turn undermines the achievement of anyone who has struggled with a serious addiction.
