You can't. You're already broken, the day you die is a day that humanity and the world in general gets a bit better.
Your condition is simply the result of a combination of symptoms caused by your own weakness of character.

without revealing too much, im gonna say i feel for you man.
it takes a lot of time, a lot of work and a lot of pain, but you have to do it. thats no way to live, brotha, trust me.
Going to tell you what every counselor/'expert'/doctor you talk to is gonna tell you: You have to relocate, get away from those people who are bringing you down, and never talk to them again. You will not succeed if you dont do this, period.
Look into detox/outpatient/inpatient services in your area. If you're where I was, theres no other way to stop, you can't do it on your own.
If you want to talk more hit me up, but honestly you are going to have to do a lot of shit you dont want to do to get out of this. You posting here makes me think you want out badly enough to do that, but idk you or your situation, so maybe not.
good luck, dont stop, and keep your head up

brain wont rewire till you get off the shit.
your neurotransmitters and receptors are TOTALLY out of balance. Those neurons they are spitting around are literally the reason why you think and feel, and yours are completely fucked up. They won't go back to normal and let you have some peace until youve been clean for 6 months - 1 year or more, but while they recover you will start to feel more and more normal as times goes on.
First week is a living, breathing, fucking nightmare. you'll actually experience wanting to die to end pain. its not a good place to be. 2nd week is hell, third week is just a regular nightmare, and from then on it starts getting better fast.
lots of <3 comin your way if you figure it out and stay away.

Take all the pills because whatever doesn't kill you makes you God.
Seriously though, I know your feels. I've been an everyday smoker since I was thirteen, so 20 years, and between then-and-now have abused the whole curriculum of drugs. I went through court-ordered in-patient rehabs and mandatory testing, daily breathalizers, copious therapy sessions with outright quacks, saw friends die and never quit. Finally, I moved a thousand miles from where I grew up and there went my connections. Of course, I moved to Oregon so pot was still a cinch to come by and I kept drinking like an absolute fucking maniac - I worked from home and would frequently drink in excess of 50 beers in a day. I'd wake up and find I'd smashed all my furniture or windows or computers.
In the end, I only changed because I met my wife. Oh shit, I'm sorry - I thought I had some advice for you. Uh, become lovable, I guess. Haha, good luck with that you utterly repulsive piece of human wreckage!
Brace for a really fucked up phase of your life that will either kill you or become a badge of pride when you get through it.

Hasbinbad
06-24-2013, 01:38 PM
But besides that, according to AA dogma (which is admittedly not the only 12 step, tho the VAST majority of 12 step programs are either AA or NA, and the majority of the rest directly model their programs after AA with only slight variation), once you're an alcoholic, there is never a point at which you can start becoming responsible for your own life again. One must continually offer their agency to "their higher power," or they are in relapse and will suffer the judgement of their sponsor and peers.
Hailto
06-24-2013, 01:40 PM
I think the point is that you gain responsibility for your own life by putting aside a substance that had you by the balls. AA maintains that once you are an alcoholic you can never drink alcohol again, but that doesn't mean you aren't responsible for your own life, i would consider that to be the contrary.
Hasbinbad
06-24-2013, 01:44 PM
Yeah, but what are the negative consequences of AA besides defeating your alcoholism?
That depends on the person, as is true with any addiction. But anecdotally, I have seen 12 step programs engender in people beliefs about reality that have no basis. I've seen people turn away from people that really care about them because they say something that doesn't jive with the freaky doctrine. I've seen people give up everything in life that matters to them in order to conform more with the 12 step lifestyle. I've seen sponsors preying on vulnerable people with no system of checks. The meetings themselves are hotbeds of relapse. Lastly, there is no end to this. I've seen people still down on themselves after being sober for 20+ years. In short, every person I've ever seen go through AA has ended up a burnt out husk of the person they once were.
Just like drugs.
Hasbinbad
06-24-2013, 01:45 PM

You do not understand AA then. One of the fundamental features is that you forever give up your agency to a higher power.

As long as you believe forces beyond your control can destroy your life, anything can destroy your life. The first addiction is the emotional security of victimhood. The second addiction is the symptom.
Go read a book or work out. Game of Thrones does not count because it is really shitty fantasy targeted at rednecks and old perverts who don't notice when a character has only a single dimension as long as there is incest or unmotivated cruelty to get excited about. Game of Thrones sucks and I hope that pisses someone off.
Anyone else wonder what percentage of p99 are current or recovering addicts? Do MMOs attract addictive personalities or do they create their own kind of addictive behavior? Is your EQ avatar a way for you to escape into a fantasy where you are capable and heroic? If it is an escape, is it an opiate, impeding real change, or a stimulant, enabling a healthy perspective shift? Is that an awkward analogy in a thread on drugs on the shittiest sub-forum of an almost illegal emulation of ElfSim '99? How the fuck did you get here? How bad is Game of Thrones?

A great number of people find healing in the church and/or AA and to begrudge them that healing is indicative only of your own bias and not some perceived destitution of character or intellect in the addicted deist.

The problem with being a passive atheist (which I am) is that while we're being all passive, the zealot Christians have organized and are in the process of implanting political representation in our government.

That's an awful broad brush to paint with. I mean seriously, there are Christians of every political affiliation. That there are some who believe the country should operate differently than I is no surprise, either -- and they deserve to have their voices heard and their beliefs represented. While there may be an argument to made that having faith is symptomatic of a need to belong and thus the faithful are easily coerced into following whatever the herd accepts that's not the argument I see. I see: "I disagree with their beliefs and don't like that they are organizing in the exact same way I am allowed to organize".

You really hit the target on an often overlooked point here. Most of the people I've known IRL that play mmos are addicts of some type or have addictive personalities. I know back on live around 2001 the main hook for me and my friends and roomies was being able to escape our shitty real lives where we felt powerless and unimportant. I was addicted to EQ first before i started doing drugs because I liked feeling powerful, important, and respected. Feelings I wasn't getting from my real life. Drugs and etc started a bit later after that stopped working because I fully realized what I was doing

Im not a "huge fan of AA" i simply think its absurd to say that going to AA meetings can be as harmful as alcoholism itself. It would have to be one horrible cult to compare to how destructive alcoholism is. Its also important to note that while im not religious myself, that does not mean that I think having a belief in a higher power can't be beneficial and helpful to some people, I just personally don't go in for it.

I hate this complete sentence more than SIMPLY the religious aspect of 12 steps. Honestly, I find some faults with the prayer, but it does have things to learn. All of the anecdotes in their bible have things you can learn, just like any religious scrip. And you can't argue the results. There is not a more efficacious way to long-term get people off alcohol yet. However, it absolutely is addiction replacement for many if not most members, it absolutely is weird and culty, it absolutely is capable of exposing members to the very things (or worse) they are trying to get away from.

What I was referring to however, are the side effects of addiction, not the physiological effects of alcohol on mammals. Would you or most alcoholics end up sucking dick to get to AA? Probably not, but I actually know someone who has done that very thing. Consequences of addiction are consequences of addiction. It doesn't matter what the focus of that addiction is.

That's because it does not make a statement in the first place, except the disavowal of certainty whether it is right or wrong. So what you said is a false analogy because you can't compare "not making a statement" to "two different kinds of statements."

Agnosticism is pretty ridiculous, how can one be "unsure" whether or not god exists? Are you also unsure of whether Thor and Vishnu and Matsya exist? Or does your uncertainly only extend to the christian god, if so why?
agnosticism doesn't necessarily just cover the Christian god.

The agnostic answer is "I don't know" regardless of how ridiculous you yourself -- tainted by your myriad biases -- judge the deity/supreme being/all-knowing super-food to be.
Fuck man.
Also:
Once you grow up you realize pretty quickly that these "thought exercises" are just you masturbating in self-satisfaction at your ability to paraphrase the same tired talking points for/against religion that we all already thought of and grew past by the age of 14.

If there is no evidence for something, rational thought dictates that you assume it does not exist. There is no solid evidence for god besides some things written in books, therefore god does not exist. What is so hard about this? We apply the same logic to everything else in life except when it comes to religion and then everyone thinks its okay to make an exception.

You ever notice the only people who ever seem to get clean are people who find god in their lives?? I don't believe in any religion mans created but it seems that the only people who really get clean and STAY that way are people who find god/become religious.
I have seen cases where people overcome their addiction claiming faith in god did it and I have met an equal amount who overcame the addiction and claimed they did it through the help of a friend or just pure will power. If you feel comforted that a divine being is aiding in your struggles so be it, but to completely rely on divine intervention is foolish and will lead you nowhere.... You need to be powerful enough to overcome your struggles yourself or you will get nowhere in life. Even if there was a god out there, what makes you think he gives a shit about you? Thousands die a day to brutal murder, famine, and genocide yet you believe this divine being cares about you even a little bit? That's selfish. If a divine being did exist his thought process would be so much larger than what we could perceive, we would be but ants to it.

it absolutely should, and you're and idiot for saying it shouldn't.
we know a lot about forests, we know about things that live in forests. we know how to look for things that live in forests. while we discover new species on occasion, those species aren't huge primates, and is usually because a given area hasn't been adequately explored. in the case of bigfoot, rumors, hundreds if not thousands of expeditions have been mounted in those areas. maybe if the rumors of bigfoot were in a forest nobody had ever been in surrounded by other species of primates where evolution like that is possible, etc etc, i would feel the same way, but that is not the case, we've brought the scope "DOWN TO EARTH." in the case of the existence of prime motivation, that is beyond what we can currently detect at all. that kind of "no evidence" is the kind where we don't even know what questions to ask in order to developt technology which will allow us to ask questions about the nature of our limitations which may give further generations some kind of insight about which way to direct research.

06-24-2013, 10:49 PM
if you dont like long posts, skip this one and ill do a tl;dr at the end.
Going to start off by saying I think most of the RnF'ers around here know by now that I rarely, if ever, go off on someone, lose my temper, or say something really negative about someone else in a personal attack. Excluding that one time I verbally raped dredge until he stopped posting again (and he never really came back, lol), I don't think I've ever blown up on here. I have a long fuse irl and prefer to not get invested in online entertainment like that. So I hope that adds some weight to the following statement.
Fuck everyone in this thread telling naez to kill himself. Really, go fuck yourselves. Preferably with extendable electric batons so you can get deep enough to tap your heart and shock some fucking humanity back into your worthless husk of a being you call home.
I personally have no real opinion on naez as a person. I think he's lost and troubled, and I think that shows in the way he presents himself online. I don't think it makes him a bad guy necessarily, just lost. I do know, however, that this isn't a troll. He's genuinely crying for help (albeit in the wrong place) and is probably hurting pretty fucking bad right now. Judging by the last ~week or so of his posts, he's in a bad place right now, and (i hope) doesn't want to be there anymore. I'd like to see a single one of you claim that you didn't do/say something really stupid at a time when you were hurt, lost, or alone, because we all know it would be a lie, and a bad one at that.
I'm not defending naez. I'm not saying anyone here should try to coddle him, support his addiction, or even offer to help. But to sit here and shout 'JUMP' to someone who is clearly close to the edge of the bridge isn't just fucked up, it's sick. Like Holocaust kind of sick. It takes a really fucking warped mind to look at someone with a gun in their mouth and tell them to pull. You should really take a long, hard look at who you are and the things that led you up to this point in your life, because you're fucked up, probably more fucked up and less deserving of being on this earth than the person you're ridiculing.
I understand that you're (hopefully) joking. I get that we're online, and that the anonymity and distance that setting provides allows for you to justify acting in ways that you'd never act in real life. And I'll be the first to say that the 'go kill yourself' line is generally harmless in most situations. This is not one of those situations. This isn't dredge asking for advice on how to stop being his girls bitch in bed. This is a real, actual human being (dredge is clearly a trollbot) asking for real, actual help, because he is really actually hurting and wants a way out. I don't know naez, but I sincerely doubt he puts any stock in those comments. Regardless, what if he did off himself tonight? What if you heard about it on the news? What if, by some sick twist of fate and logic, he really did listen to all of you telling him to pull the trigger and actually fucking did it? You'd have just fucking killed someone. Way to go. You won at forum quest. But you lost at being a real human being.
Naez, millions of people have been exactly where you are now, myself included. I promise you no matter how bad your situation is, you can fight your way out. I did, and from the sound of it, I was a LOT farther along than you are now. It takes strength, it takes heart, and it takes an utter willingness to say fuck you life, and take all the shit it throws at you while you grit your teeth in a smile and ask for more. It's a long road, and a lot of people stray off the path and have to start all over at the beginning. or they die. Or they go to jail. It's pretty much that simple. You don't have to do this alone, there are so many resources out there to help you, some of which i outlined in my original post way back on page 1. You don't have to do AA, but you do need to do something, and you DO need to get the fuck away from anyone that uses/helps you use. And you need to stay away from the booze, too. You're an addict, bud, and you're going to have to start living with that knowledge and understanding what it means for you. You CAN do this and it IS worth it. You are worth it. Your life is worth it. You sure as fuck aren't going to believe that right now, so you had better tell it to yourself every god damn day until it becomes a reality for you. You will get there, that I promise. If you want to talk more, my door is open, I have been to literal hell and back, back to hell, and then back again, but I made it out. I'm not gonna hold your fuckin hand, but if you need someone to talk to, i'm here.
I have a lot more to say but I'd like to calm down a bit before I try to add to the aa/na and the peyote/ibogaine discussion. I like you guys and I like this community, and I really do NOT like getting worked up and making an ass of myself by wearing my heart on my sleeve, but this went too far. Those of you who crossed that line should go kill yourselves.
tl;dr You're a fucked up human being if you kicked naez while he was actually fucking down IRL, regardless of what you think of him as a person. I'm all worked up and making a fool of myself over this, so if you want to see that, read the above post. Enjoy.

I'm not talking about the 12 step program. I'm talking about just putting faith into a religious belief/idea/diety/whatever. I personally know people that this has helped. It turned their lives around. I don't expect trolls on this board to know shit about it. But if it works it works. Anything is better than letting a substance abuse destroy or kill you.

I understand completely that the chances of naez actually offing himself because some ass on an online forum told him to do so are slim to none, but it doesn't make the person who did it any less of a shitty person. The bottom line is he's really is close to the edge, and even if he's not he's clearly down and close to out, and to jump in on someone when they are like that is just flat out wrong.
Y'all know I'm not some pussy ultra hippy sentimental type, either, and I think talking shit to one another is part of the bond that holds us all together, but there's a line, and that line needs to remain uncrossed.
Yes, I know naez is a troll, and I know the hatred most of you hold for him is usually reserved for rapists and child molesters, but that still doesn't change the situation.
I'll point you to this thread -> http://www.project1999.org/forums/showthread.php?t=112819
which is basically naez having an utter (and frankly crazy, like actual mental kind of crazy) meltdown over being blocked on irc by people he used to spend a lot of time chatting with.
He's hurt and alone, and even though I completely agree its his own doing, that doesn't change my position that callously trying to push him over the edge, joking or not, is fucking wrong. It's one of those situations where if you don't have anything nice to say, just shut up.
and <3 u too turtle, feel free to direct your naez rage at me for the remainder of the thread =P

I do not hate naez at all, i talk to him on a regular basis on IRC. But you really don't understand his motivation, naez enjoys fucking with people who show any semblance of care for his well being. I was one of the people he referenced in that IRC thread; I know him pretty well. Yeah, I believe he has some substance abuse problems, but he greatly exaggerates them to get a rise out of people on forums. By getting all worked up over it you're giving him what he wants.

I already know.
Still think he needs help, and I still think he doesn't deserve being kicked when down, but I think I said what I needed to say and feel happy leaving it at that.
Naez, if it really is as bad as you say/think it is, get some help, find some REAL LIFE friends who care, and get the fuck out of the hole you've dug before you hit some real shit and really are better off dead.
If you're just trolling however, grats on getting me even more worked up than dredge that one time, and go kill yourself :)

Hi ForumQuest pals! I like threads like this once in a while, so I thought I'd pop in with a few thoughts.
First, Naez. My opinion is that he's going to die by his own hand. It's been obvious for some time. It will probably happen within months of dropping out of school when he realizes that no one pays for linear modifications to borrowed source code.
I used to be a complete AA naysayer, but then I met my friend John. John is a nasty drunk. There is no limit to how much he will drink and he is an asshole when he drinks. He gets into fights. He's also a shitty fighter. He's Irish, with the cliche glass jaw. It's been shattered on two separate occasions, and another time when it didn't break, his molars on the other side from the impact shattered. He goes to AA several times a week, and I encourage it. He's a Randian since he stopped drinking. It's annoying, but he hasn't needed an ambulance for more than two years now.
My own alcoholism, as asserted by my pal Harry, is not going well. I haven't had a drink since the bottle of prosecco I drained at the beginning of the month. I'll get myself drunk and post more love notes to him after my class ends in mid-July. Maybe I'll even buy some weed so Harry can call me a junkie.
I think EverQuest, as a habit-forming behavior, is most similar to things like gambling and shopping. It has the same sorts of unpredictable rewards that drive lab rats insane. It's hell on employment and social relationships, and also seems to bring out physical neglect.
Hailto's error is using Bigfoot as an analogy for the Christian god. This doesn't make him an idiot; it makes him human. As a species, we're known to make mistakes.
Russell's teapot isn't a terrific analogy for the Christian deity, either. However, both arguments are sound and valid. They demonstrate argumentum ad absurdum in Hasbinbad's position, which is known as agnostic conciliation. It is not possible to reconcile this position with several parts of Western thinking, notably logic, the scientific method, and Occam's razor. It's difficult to make judgments on motivation, but I am fairly confident that HBB plays at agnosticism specifically for these vapid and repetitive arguments. I often think that most agnostics are playing a weak version of Pascal's wager. If you don't believe in a deity, you don't believe in a deity.
If one day you hear God talking to you, see a psychiatrist. Schizophrenia is difficult to treat, but success rates are higher when treated early. If you face the end of your life or lose someone you cannot bear to be without and need to believe in a deity, I'll never state my atheist beliefs to you again. I'll even pray with you. There are reasons we are capable of cognitive dissonance. It's a survival mechanism.
As an individual, I have switched positions from being a live-and-let-live atheist to an in-your-face atheist and back again. My current reasoning is that religion is primarily a social need. People want to belong to something and modern culture is lacking in those opportunities. Many people will profess to believe in their bible or other religious text, but most are actually ignorant and will scramble for rationalizations when pressed with nonsensical or socially unacceptable content such as murder, rape, incest, slavery, human sacrifice, and so on.
Finally, arguing with Hasbinbad is pointless. He claims evidence from his own mind, refutes widely accepted primary sources, willfully and repeatedly moves goalposts, and inevitably resorts to name calling. Assuming that he is capable of self-examination, he represents the epitome of intellectually dishonest.
It's time for bed. Until next time, I bid you all a good night.
TL;DR: Hi ForumQuest pals!
