heh heh, thats exactly what i thought you would say, z10. Quite right, threads become what they will, but i most certainly did read the entire thread, i was largely supporting arnies comments about AA, and while it has some merit that many addicts are, in effect, trying to get closer to "god"(see 9 inch nails, the band)-largely due to the inhumanity and ignorance of their fellow man-its equally true they may be just as happy if that CAUSAL factor had never entered their lives, and may be living a blithe, marvellous pc life like yourself. Chemical addiction, the height of humanity? You are shitting me, right? Im quite certain, chemical dependancy in most forms is in very large part, the consequence of the lack of humanity, by and large, among the human throng of these fascist apes that have taken over the planet. Please correct me if im wrong here, but didnt you state you had never experienced any kind of addiction?
Heck, hypnosis is far more interesting than z10 s religio-apoligist bunkum. You can really make someone eat an onion? As has been pointed out, this thread is not about Reardens personal circumstances, and while he may have tried "15 " different doctors, thats probably the problem-you arent going to find anything particularly miraculous amongst the realm of medicine, you have to step way outside that. Lets here more, deepbluefaq.
To all the good people here: I don't think many of you fully understand this ZrectalwartZ creature fully, like I do. Not even pabst seems to understand. We are taking about something that <b>claims</b> to believe that torturing a defenseless animal to death is no worse than eating humanely raised and slaughtered livestock: (ARougetrader is one of it's many banned aliases) http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showt...ght=someone+has+sex+with+an+animal#post421595 http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showt...78&perpage=6&highlight=internal&pagenumber=11 For no reason other than to emulate a fetid, rotting, nefariously repugnant used maxipad, it will INSIST, for pages on end, that a study from 2005 is really from 2003. Not because it actually believes what it is saying, but because <b>it knows it all to be false.</b> ref- first three pages of this thread: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=53333&perpage=6&highlight=pew&pagenumber=1 This pus-filled rash comes here to claim that Osama Bin Laden's mass murder of innocent civilians is just like A moral hungry man stealing to feed his starving family. Are you starting to understand what I'm getting at? This pillow biting gerbil-stuffer probably <b>does not actually believe in the AA/NA cult</b>, but only pretends to do so- <b>because he knows that it is wrong</b>. The creature will passionately advocate the dead-wrong side of <b>any</b> issue, and do so for hours on end, because the only way it can achieve mental and sexual satisfaction is by pissing off good people to the point of anguish. Knowing all of this, why do I let this demon-spawn bother me so much? Well, actually, I don't. What bothers me is how most good people here are somehow unable to see the Z game for what it really is, no matter how many times people like myself & hapaboy try explaining it to you!
There are so many good, helpful & knowledgable posts here for me to address, but dealing first with the talking tumor and calling it out by it's true name has left me drained, and unable to continue in rational, productive conversation. Slay this beast next time for me so that I don't have to, and I'll be capable of productive and life-saving discussion in the future.
Hi Rearden, (0) Remarkable coming from a distinguished ET contributor; (1) Thank you for your interesting thread. Doctors can relieve some suffering sometimes. Mostly, like politicians, they only relieve people of their money - this has been recorded already since biblical times. So, in many cases the only thing that remains is self-help, rather akin to markets; (2) Funny how people always seem to come back to questions of faith, haggling about for or against. Be good, nononsense
Quite a self defense you put together there. I guess you feel you need a self defense, because you feel you are being attacked. All part of the expected response from THE ADDICT when you suggest recovery, rather than self medication and continued denial of the real problem. Anyone who has ever participated in an intervention knows exactly how an addict will respond when the suggestion that their drug of choice be taken away, and that they have a problem that self medication is not treating.
For you this clearly is personal, as you obviously feel threatened and attacked. For me this is purely a clinical observational process. You are filled with emotion about this, I feel none. As much as you want to be special in your addiction, you are just another soul like all of us who is up against something that is more powerful than your mind or will. Looks like you have some renewed energy to fight your imagined beast, can't be from sufficient sleep though. Perhaps paranoia is another of your symptoms. I am not the enemy, the enemy is inside you. The real fight you are avoiding is the inner work you are too fearful to do....
Note to the good people: Notice how this creature, which has cursed me out countless times with numerous derogatory terms... now pretends to be a helpful, neutral observer/expert. This is typical. An intelligent observer does not buy a single word of it, just like you are aware without a doubt that the current year is 2005, and not 2003.
