4chan is my most dangerous addiction

>>41034199

The quickest way? Replace it with something else that gives you a similar 'high.'

This may or may not be healthy but it might be the quickest.

Stop having the thing you're addicted to...

How did you figure this to be a valid question?

probably depends on the addiction
if there's no real physical addiction/a withdrawal that can't hurt you too bad, deciding never to do it again and quitting cold turkey is p alright
but you gotta feel like you're not really making a sacrifice

Psychedelics

>>41034199
You're an addict, so be addicted.

Just be addicted to something else.

>>41034199
Seriously, how the fuck do you quit alcohol? It's ruining my gains, my mental health and my life in general. I can go a few days without it at most before picking up a new bottle.

>>41034199
conditioning yourself to feel better when you dont do it

1) Examine your behaviour
2) Find your cue and reward
3) Change the routine

T. Le bestseller lifehack "Power of Habit" book

depends on what

ibogaine for opiates, benzos maybe alcohol + some other dope

other psychological stuff its really hard. the only way i quit porn+fapping was with god. i pray twice daily and i take it deeply serious. i broke down in ways i didnt even know was possible, and im a isolated kv neet on bux

psychedelics are a powerful move in almost all situations tho

I quit alcohol when I realized that it's going to kill me. Liver failure isn't a meme, and you can die by 30. Lifting everyday helps, I don't want to drink since hangovers at the gym are bad. Think about the consequences and death from drinking. Is it worth it? I mean REALLY a think about death, what it will feel like dying, oblivion etc. it'll scare you straight.

That's the thing, my body is so strong that none of my alcohol abuse shows up on tests. I'm almost 30 and even though I've been a hardcore drinker (a bottle of vodka daily) for nearly 10 years you can't see it on any tests. So I just keep doing it. I need to quit though, not because it's fucking up my body, but because it's fucking up my life.

>shoot yourself
>addiction instantly gone

>>41034924
You are making stupid excuses. You are in denial, "oh it can't happen to me, it'll only happen to someone else". You aren't special, you will die sooner and not later if you don't fucking quit.

if I'[m 19 and do shots and drink a few vodka and cokes every weekend do I have reason to worry?

>>41034940
Alright I get you. Thanks for the heads up.

>>41034199
I had a buddy who used to smoke. Not a pack a day, but enough. He decided to quit because I don't know, maybe the whole smokes can and do literally cause cancer thing. What he did was ash his cigarettes into a glass of water and then he drank it. Or, tired to anyways.

If you aren't strong-willed enough to quit cold turkey, which there's nothing wrong with, maybe you could try something kinda extreme like that. What are you trying to kick?

>>41034199
Act. I'm serious. You start playing a character that's just you, minus your addiction. Ridicule it, make fun of it, laugh about it with friends. In due time, you will simply become that character.

kinda like the cHaNz.

you lurk first, then you BECOME a bro on the 'ch0n

>have addiction
>strongly visualise yourself not to be a fucking loser anymore
>stop being addicted.

It's how i quit smokes and booze

Im sluiting smoking right now 4th week in
I tried the chantix thing but that shit is litteraly garbage, started vaping to replace the habit (0mg Nic) but feel like a fag doing it in public, so going come Turkey since 2 weeks
It's not really hard but have to keep myself distracted when the urge comes

>>41034199
Step 1. Stop doing the thing
Step 2. There is no step 2, faggot.

Seek a spiritual experience

>>41034199
practice asceticism as your main goal and all your sub goals will tend to, for the lack of a better term, submit.

Hedonism, relaxing and the like are values meant for women or consumers, your broad shoulders were made to endure.

>>41034199
Substitute it with a different addiction

>But anon I don't want to have any addictions

Fuck you bih

>>41034481
This.
An addiction holds power because without it you feel a void. Fill it with something hopefully more productive.
I literally used running as a way to stop smoking. Traded out the dopamine from smoking for the dopamine from running. Plus the added benefit of seeing gains made me wanna smoke less

>>41034199
been cutting down on smokes
>was once up to over a pack a day
>got down to a pack a day over a year ago
>half a pack for the past 6 months
>down to 5 smokes per day for the past week
shit is hard, much harder than stopping overeating for me but I'm doing alright

When you decide to do something, you do it. Anyone that "tries" and fails merely never decided to do in the first place. Once a man choose something, he can light himself on fire and sit perfectly still as his flesh burns away. We just rarely care enough to make those types of decisions. Mostly we just float through life doing what comes easy - and sometimes we do what is hard for a temporary feeling of accomplishment... but true lasting decisions are rare events. I've only made a few. Enlisting. Marrying. Being a father. Those are the biggest three. For those I would burn without flinching.

The trouble with addicts is that they don't value themselves. The reason they became addicts in the first place, the root weakness... that is the enemy. The addiction is merely a symptom of that weakness. If you can't decide to quit - then in the meantime you should take philosophy classes at your community college as a non-degree seeking student. Not shitting you. What have you got to lose except a few bucks? Jews are going to get your buck anyway.
