>>7787147
Never been man enough to bang it. I struggle with opioid pills enough. I don't need the spike in my life

>>7787143
Wasting time online and just wasting time in general. I blame my childhood asthma, which required me to sit around for prolonged periods of time with a nebulizer. I still find it hard to get up and do things without wasting an hour or more than I have to beforehand doing fuck all.

Also I like booze, but I don't drink enough for it to count as an addiction (2 times a week at most when I can afford it, which isn't always).

I'm planning on reading The Lime Twig next, but I'm currently reading 3 other things so that'll take a while to get to.

I do a lot of drugs but I always prevent myself from developing a dependency

Just finished Solaris. It was meh. Kinda made feels. But not enough. Going to read the razors edge now.

I'm addicted to collecting shit. Each collection takes up a few months of my life. When I finish I vow never to collect again. Started with cd's then movies, then video games, then video game consoles, then cameras, comics, hockey cards and now because of lit, books! Although books have been the cheapest of all things I've collected. Hopefully this is the last straw and I keep collecting books until I die.

>>7787143
cheap alcohol in all shapes and forms

yann martel's new novel

Hair pulling. trichotillomaniac here.
Next book I plan on reading is Sophie's World.

>>7787159
i think most of us have the same problem, my dude.

>>7787239
No doubt about that. Though I think I'm the only one here who's come up with an explanation for its origins.

>>7787143
Coffee and porn.

Hard to say. Reading Suttree now after reading Blood Meridian. Maybe I'll give Ulysses a shot? I've been missing Joyce's prose since I read Portrait.

>>7787419
If you like Portrait, get fucking ready. Ulysses is so much more than you could even imagine.

>>7787143
Adderall
Re-reading V. over spring break, should be nice.

>>7787451
do you mean that in a good or bad way? I'm reading portrait now and really enjoying it.

Alcohol and shallow entertainment.

>>7787481
Ulysses is a lot better than Portrait. Though actually, Portrait is really tame in terms of experimental prose compared to Ulysses so your reaction will depend on how comfortable you are with not knowing what the fuck's going on half the time.

Some people like them both, others love Portrait and hate Ulysses, and I was underwhelmed by Portrait but thought Ulysses was a masterpiece.

>>7787481
Both. I'm only halfway through Ulysses myself and it's the kind of book that seems like it'd reward countless re-readings. I've been using Harold Blamires' New Bloomsday Book as a companion, and I'd recommend it pretty highly if you want something to ground you in the text. You're not going to pick up on everything if you're not intimately familiar with philosophy (eastern and western), theology, several different languages (living and dead), musical theory, poetry, Irish politics, the cultural and geographical landscape of Dublin and whatever the fuck else Joyce throws at you. This is all to say, would highly fucking recommend.

>>7787172
I do the same thing, although I'm wondering if I become dependent on doing drugs infrequently.

Coffee. I got bored of porn lately, though. There must be more to life, I guess. I drink a lot of wine when I'm let down by something. Been thinking about smoking since my life's been garbage and anti-depressants don't help as much as I wish they did.

I'm halfway through Ulysses too like >>7787498
Sometimes it's really hard to know what exactly is happening but I intend to reread it soon.

I'll read Mason and Dixon when I finish it. Or Blood Meridian, I don't know.

>>7787143
Shitposting and worrying.

I'm planning on working my way through the Jane Austen novels, starting with Sense and Sensibility.

Loneliness and suicide ideation.

Next I plan to read The Man With No Qualities.

I'm addicted to lifting weights and coffee

>>7787419
Same

and not life threatening but I can easily go 4-5 days 6-9 hours a day watching porn and drinking coffee with few breaks, so probably not good

Your stereotypes can't handle my addictions: chocolate, caffeine, internet.

Don't have a specific next book lined up since I'm in the middle of several I'm slowly trying to finish first. Likely either Memoirs of Hadrian by Marguerite Yourcenar or White Teeth by Zadie Smith.

>>7787143 I'm a huge addict to competition and, therefore, games and other stuff (I take everything very seriously, poker, table tennis, piano, writing).

I'm super competitive and if I'm not good enough in something I think shit about myself and get anxiety attacks.

Cigarettes, cigarillos and cigars. Thinking about them, smoking one, or a dozen, or two packs and them feeling guilty and relaxed. The New York Trilogy. Auster's prose is great.

>>7788687
I think everyone is like this that I've asked. I'm a bit concerned that my mind is essentially blank almost all the time. I thought this was normal but apparently not

Addicted to addiction desu. there's always something new to get obsessed about.

Surely you'd just break them all and then when you have none left whenever you feel one arising you break it. So it'd just be an addict constantly unable to feed his addiction until that one faded as well

looking at clothes online
i spend a good few hours a day just looking at listings on grailed, ebay, blogs and retail stores. i imagine myself in the wardrobe of my dreams with every piece i could never afford. i'm in school to be a teacher so i will never be able to properly indulge in this obsession. in my reality i do not dress well even though i have some nice pieces. there are many like me and what i have noticed about them is that they usually are not very physically attractive. doughy, bad skin, short, asian/brown whatever. same with chicks too, the ones really into fashion are mostly uggos. i'm no exception

Adderall, Kratom, and Phenibut. Basically, any legal high I can get.

Yes, I know it's bad for me, but the alternative is being suicidal so fuck it. Rather die at 40 of liver failure than be a little bitch and call it quits.

chewing gum, i chew through almost a packet each day. it's that sugar-free extra ice stuff, keeps my teeth looking great and breath smelling good, but my jaw always aches and now i get pissed off when i have to deal with other people's bad breath

How am I supposed to evaluate that without sounding like a prick?

If porn does compromise anything, than it's morals and sexual inhibition, not intelegence.

A porn addiction eats up time one could spend reading or studying but I have sacrificed time I could spend meeting new people to make up for that

I have an addiction to falling in love with unobtainables, and then obtaining them eventually. On occasions I'll get depressed and slip into an opioid warm daze for a few days or weeks. Mostly I just smoke weed, wouldn't count that as an addiction but its definitely replaced cigarettes.

Currently I'm in love with this girl who has shitty taste in men. She showed interest one night and then I left early and now she's with this shitty recovering heroin faggot.

I'm about to go over there now, and if she's there I'm gonna do what I always do if the 'she' I want has a boyfriend. Outdo him.

There's my secret to girls, guys. I don't get girlfriends or fucks super often but I've figured out that if you routinely outdo the dude she's gonna see him as a lesser male.

Plus that bitch nigga nods out too often to be able to converse intelligently with her or I dunno, make her feel anything besides pity, if I were her.

Penguin classics. I'm not even sure if the translations are well regarded or not. I started with Meditations, then the Republic, and it all went downhill from there. I dislike having different sized random books on a shelf, so the penguin classics get their own shelf, the rest are ordered by height.

Adderall and the things I do when on it.
By this I mean starving myself voluntarily because it reminds me of being on adderall.
Compulsively cleaning for the same reason.
Staring into space for an hour.
Isolating myself to spend literally the entire day reading.

Also internet of course.

Exactly my philosophy. Acid literally saved my life. It was the first drug I ever tried and now I go for all kind of stuff. I could die tomorrow from an overdose and it would not be a tragedy in my mind because those drug years are all extra borrowed years. Without drugs I would already have killed myself.

I guess I'm addicted to morphine/codeine. You can buy certain poppy seeds that are unwashed, meaning that they are coated in a layer of opium latex, the shit they use to make heroin. By washing the seeds in water and lemon, you can drink the resulting sludge and get high. I started doing it after all of my friends stopped doing heroin when one of them died and I still wanted to get high. Ironically, when I was doing heroin I never had much of a problem, but unprocessed poppies are so cheap and easy to obtain that I've been doing it twice a day for a year, and if I don't, I fall into a debilitating withdrawal. I make sure that doesn't happen though, and I'd like to think being high on dope all the time has given me the serenity needed to get a car, a job, make great strides towards my degree, improve my writing, and in general get my life on track. Don't mistake this for pride though; I've been trying to quit unsuccessfully for months, and whether I quit or not, I can see the clouds of ruin on the horizon of all paths. If I could go back in time and smack that first bag of seeds out of my hands, there would be no other options.

Should I read Life: A User's Manual or House of Leaves next?

seriously hope you other speed addicts do pushups when you're high. shit's fun as hell

Masturbation

Paradise Lost. Or perhaps Ovid's Metamorphoses

I like alcohol a lot, I drink almost every day I'd say. I don't know if it counts as heavily, I've never compared myself to anyone else, I drink about 5 or 6 shots worth of whiskey a night I'd say. I'm not sure if that's a lot but it makes me feel good. Right now I'm finishing Gass' The Tunnel. I might read either Henry Roth's Call it Sleep or Henry Miller's Tropic of Cancer next, I haven't really decided.

I am addicted to waking up after noon.

It's like an OCD thing.

I literally get sick if I wake up before noon.

It's fine because I work evenings and stay up late writing, but it is very limiting and causes me a great deal of anxiety.

>>7788933
Not sure, but I'm constantly putting shit into my body. It's the accumulation of everything that can't be good for me. Things I rotate (to keep tolerances low):

- Kratom (I cycle through red, green, and white strains)
- Phenibut (I do this after a Kratom cycle. It's basically just a pain killer but the associated withdrawal/tolerance sucks so it's more of a 'treat' than anything.)
- Kava (Also a periodic thing, mostly in evenings when I want to wind down.)
- Modafinil (Taken with Adderall, this shit gets you WIRED. Two days of perfect productivity. The downside is that it makes you irritable so I use it mostly for chore days and big projects.)
- Assorted Nootropic stimulants. Usually don't know what to expect but I like that it makes my day an adventure.

This doesn't include prescribed doses of Prozac and Adderall. Also, a Piracetam/Alcar daily dose. I like to believe it makes the hughs better, but I'm finding that grapefruit juice is the way to go.

I used to drink regularly, but I hated how it basically put me on an hour-long clock before I got sleepy. Mixed bag for big projects, usually just made things harder to do unless it was only a few drinks.

Weed is meh for me. I've tried it a couple times but I just get couch-lock and can't do shit. My heart beats fast as hell though so it's more stressful than anything else.

Right now I'm experimenting with blue lotus extract and wine. Takes forever for that stuff to break down with the alcohol, though.

Really, I just wish I knew some drug dealers. I could introduce more things into my rotation as micro-doses. I'm unfortunate/fortunate enough that none of my friends are closeted degenerates like me.

>>7788955
Dunno about that, but I definitely notice a difference in my attitude when I go without. I used to fap multiple times a day, sometimes up to seven sessions.

I randomly got bored one day and somehow got over the hump. From there I went weeks without and my confidence went way up. I was able to fake charm and had more luck with women. I wanna say it was more testosterone in my body as a result, but it's more likely that I was just thirsty.

I'm actually, genuinely addicted to the internet. How do I stop? I spend a minimum of five hours daily just browsing the Chans. I often skip college so that I can stay home and browse all day, I struggle to read because after a few pages I want to get online and see what's going on. How do I stop? I'm not being funny, it's ruining my life.

Take what I'm going to say with a grain of salt, because again, I'm addicted.

You feel like you can do more. Body strain goes away so it's amazing when combined with physical activity. I can constantly run and lift things at work. When I go to the gym, I run more than I thought I ever could and I can do it while watching Netflix AND ENJOYING IT.

It's acts like a pain killer and a stimulant at the same time. Think of bodily strain as a rusty hinge. Kratom is the oil that makes everything run smooth.

It's also gross and mildly expensive. I force myself to eat it but it's worth it, to me at least. I'm a pussy. I'm oversensitive to physical pain (legs always sore, tired easily). To add, I get worried about the stupidest little things. If I have a single awkward moment in public, I immediately start thinking I'm sperglord and get panicky.

Kratom makes it so I can deal. I can function. It's totally a dependency at this point but I don't care. It's better than being miserable.

I look at it more as a tool than anything else.

OP here. You guys are fucked

Why don't you just get rid of your computer if it's that much of a problem?

So I tried this once and I spent the night in a euphoric stupor.

I literally couldn't think and felt like there were thousands of hands massaging every part of my body. I spend the entire next day throwing up.

I think I took too much. Have you ever had an experience like that?

That's a minimum. Most days 12 hours is much more typical.

Being unproductive. I could do nothing all day, for real.

I plan on reading Sleepwalker in a Fog by Tolstaya soon.

Yup. You have to start low and figure out where you want to be. Low-threshold dosages give a stimulant effect that's like chugging coffee. Heavy doses do what you described.

When my tolerances are low, all I need is a packed 1/2 tsp to get me where I want. If I have a demanding day, I'll go anywhere from 2-3 doses depending on the day and my self control. If I let my tolerances run high or I feel like getting to euphoria, I double the dose.

Did you stay hydrated? Drinking TONS of water is necessary. Kratom can cause constipation. As a positive side-effect of my addiction, I go through gallons every day. Downside is I pee a ton, but I figure it probably helps with my liver fears.

Also, eat something simple about an hour after you light. Nausea is common since you're basically eating dead leaves. I usually do a banana.
