Good going Nyt, we're not judging you. And you're obviously not alone in this.
I recently decided to take a break from alcohol, to try to sort out my life. Been drinking every weekend since I was around 15. Nothing wrong with that, but the past two or so years have gotten out of hand. I started becoming a person I don't like when I drink, which has since resulted in crimes, getting into fights and worst of all hurting people I care about. Not to mention all time I spend hungover, wondering what kind of **** I might've pulled the night before.
Keep it up!

@jook n Skag. Cheers guys, seemed to of cleared some stuff up for me there as in other folks comments too. I certainly need to cut down. Friday evening then the wkend evenings ill usually have an ale, try to have a break in the week unless we're watching a film or footys on. My drinking doesn't affect my family so that's a plus if you get me. Cheers guys.
@morfyboy. You sound like you've had it tough pal. Certainly wouldn't know though mate from what a top chap u are.
Once again though folks, well done.

Hi, im Josh and im a ninja. Well, at least id like to think so...
I smoked marijuana for like 10 years until about a year and half ago when one day i just woke up and stopped. Ive only smoked twice since i stopped (just to see how it handles) and i get migraines from it now. So im glad thats gone and i dont really miss it. I drink alcohol like twice a year, always been a social drinker and i dont see that changing anytime soon.
Painkillers on the other hand....lets just say im not ready to give up on it, and the sad truth is i dont think i ever will. The concrete feeling i get from it, there is nothing else like it. I have a MASSIVE tolerance for hydros and oxys, so if i want a good hit say on a weekend, id down like 8-10 pills at once and that lasts me a good several hours where id just nod in and out. Alot of my ninjas ive 0 faulted (not all) but alot have been while under the influence of pills. I try not to let it consume me too much, like an addiction in moderation when im still holding a steady job and enjoyin pills recreationally no more than once or twice a week- not a cheap habit btw. Funny how i just took bunch of pills before typing this up and im hoping to hit submit before i fall back into oblivion and a state of euphoric CONfusion.
Oh and i enjoy chewin dip too. Copenhagen Long Cut FTW. Screw jook's Skoal!

Alcohol is the biggest killer of people too..more than n drug..in the UK It is anyway..due to ky past as i like to say,doing every and any thing that was available i did it..not a nice existance.but reading above,like retribution i suppose,i give everything up the first time after waking up one day,and despising myself..i still feel guilt now1 5years on for the people i upset.. nwadays im just heavily medicated on valium and tamazepam..enough every day to drop a rhino..but because they give out like sweets whhen i was younger,and on such a high dose, i will be on them for life..it has had a big plus to me,and prolonged my life.but still,the medicine i take is more addictive than wot i was on..ironic really..its nice to kick back,play trials, then neck my diazies n tamazy eggs...

Hydrocodone and oxycodone. They're opiates (like morphine, codeine, heroin). Don't know if they're synthetic. I love opiates, that's why I don't do them very often.Originally Posted by Morfyboy

I haven't been a drinker for more than 10 years now, though I was never an alcoholic.Originally Posted by Malachyte
I am a perfectionist when it comes to my work to the point where i spend ridiculous hours on tiny little things that noone would notice, but because thats what i demand of myself. I also have another negative trait thats a byproduct of this pursuit of perfectionism, if i don't feel i can do something perfectly i often will not do it at all or will push myself too hard in pursuit of standards that i cant realistically meet.
I would demand the same of myself in Trials, but fortunately (and unfortunately) I suck too much to bother and thats largely due to people like you who highlight how far down the ladder i am
