On the Steps of Central Asia

by the Pirate on November 21, 2006

At a DA meeting tonight a friend of mine who is also in one of the “chemical programs” (those that deal with physical addiction to mind-altering substances) discussed the reason he can can’t drink too much coffee, or eat too many carbs or sweets.

“Because sooner or later, the thought crosses my mind that I shouldn’t be messing around, and sort of running away. Because I really know how to do it right. I can run away like a champ.

“The next day, I’m smoking weed again.”

Yup: eating leads to smoking, which leads right back to eating. Anyway, I’m not talking about the ordinary user: I’m talking about those for whom it quickly becomes a compulsion.
