If you want to prescribe a fantasy based definition and assume that it’s actually true, not just a figment of your subjective experience, then go right ahead. Feel free to do that with all your concepts. Thats what everyone else does anyone so you’ll be in plentiful company. Meanwhile, when I stopped smoking cigarettes I didn’t suffer, so I guess your definition is immediately invalidated. You literally said to me ‘if it causes you to suffer’, well it didn’t.
I don't know. I suffer without. People are different. Wired differently.
Like how some people are more prone to addictive personality and other's are not. No 2 people are the same.
I think the major resentment I’m having with communication these days, is that people refer to these abstract concepts, with zero underlying content, and just expect the other person to act as if something was actually said, as if their comment has any objective accuracy or value. Like ‘wired’, ‘wired differently’, ‘personality’, ‘addictive personality’, ‘prone to addictive personality’. Literally every man and their dog thinks they can throw around these concepts, without any deep thinking about the topics whatsoever. Please don’t take it personally.
Well I am no stranger to addiction. Mine comes from personal experience. I know others who have been put in the same situation as me, where it doesn't effect them the same. They don't wake up with the same need that I have woken up with. That is what I am referring to.
I have seen others walk away like it was nothing, while it's a huge struggle for me.
"fantasy based definition"
I guess crippling headaches and nausea that makes it extremely hard to quit smoking, or the incredibly dangerous problems that quitting alcohol cold turkey causes due to the nature of beta blockers, are just "fantasy based"
Ahh, fucking retards. Even we have this kind.
