/k/ - Weapons

We humans evolved to always aim for certain goals. So set a goal and go for it. Be it something bold and great, and break it down into smaller things, so it feels like a long march. You will feel a bit of happiness after each step you take.

thanks man, I am trying. the link is a good reminder

>>331411

Any time. Just remember that happiness is not a state of being, but a feeling that will go away without stimulus.

And get off the drugs. You are a 'murican, you could build your own guns. Wouldn't that be a good enough challenge? Then you could even give practical advices in all those threads about homemade weapons.

>get off the drugs

I think drugs are my main problem. I've been using drugs daily for 6-7 years now. And its hard to take the steps necessary to stop without any family or friends for support. I've definitely tried many times. Just hard to keep myself in check and motivated. I live alone and make enough money to splurge on my hobbies. I know its bad for me and my happiness but its just hard to feel compelled to quit. I'm just a general fuckup i guess.

Not sure. I just check left box for the first one, and right box for all the other ones. skip question #13.

If you make enough money to splurge on hobbies you can probably afford decent private help in getting off the drugs. Nobody makes it without support, and it sucks not having family or friends for it, but help is still available.

What kind of drugs are we talking about? No biggie if you don't feel comfortable answering.

What kind of drugs, if you don't mind me asking?

>If you make enough money to splurge on hobbies you can probably afford decent private help in getting off the drugs.

What I meant is that I am financially comfortable so the drugs don't get me into trouble the way it does for most addicts. And because they don't cause me trouble, the consequences of my drug abuse havent kicked me in the ass enough for me to realize I need to get my shit together. I just think that I don't have any friends or relationships with other people is due to complacency and apathy reinforced by my drug habit.

I've gone to group counseling before. Stopped after 2 sessions. There are out-patient rehab clinics. But I don't really need rehabilitation. I dont have a physical addiction. I just need to stop doing so much and relying on drugs whenever I feel bored, alone, apathetic, etc.

cocaine, painkillers, muscle relaxers, and weed.

So how did you end up on drugs?

>>331425

It sounds like you are just bored, and your default reaction to boredom is taking drugs. Maybeisten to this video it could be a bit strange, it's about anxiety not boredom, but the core concept seems to be sound: you have to rewire your brain.

So just find a way to kill time when you are not motivated, and do a hobby when you are motivated. Gardening maybe?

Kick the drugs, go for a week walk in a wooded area.

easier said than done maplefriend. consistency is the hump i cant get over.

>I wish I had a family, friends, or girlfriend ;_;

You can get two of the three if you apply yourself m8, quitting drugs is the first step

>>331438

If I have to come down there and drag your ass into the woods I will. If I could get two slavs to cut down heavily on the vodka I can get you to quit that shit-tier list of drugs.

>>331438

Change your mindset. Here's a good start:

Not shilling, I genuinely think it's good

Dude, drugs are a waste of money. All the cash you waste in drugs could be expended in better hobbies or else.

Also, you just don't need to rely on drugs. I agree with the other Streloks, you're just bored, life has been so repetitive that your mind has become dull, and it craves stimuli. You need new input in your life.

Fuck off Hotaru, no one believes your shit anymore.

OP, I was a drug addict for about seven years. It's always fun at first, then it becomes routine, and eventually you get tired of it. It sounds like your tired of it at this point. The thing is, you'll never stop unless you want to stop, and I mean really want to stop. Shit like rehab/therapy is useless in my opinion because the people who seek those services don't really want to stop and they're fucking embarrassing and depressing which will drive you to use more. When you decide to quit, you won't need that shit because your self determination will be all you need. You also don't need to be 100 percent clean. I drink coffee in the morning, beer at night, and take MDMA or mushrooms once a year. I don't stick needles in my veins anymore so that's clean enough for me. Try kratom for getting off opiates. It's legal, satisfies your xravings , and is way easier to stop taking than other opiates.

>>334585

thanks bro. do you have a good source for kratom? is it just for WDs or for when im fiending?

>>334586

I used to buy it at local headshop for the sake of convenience but I'm sure you can get much better deals online. It's a godsend for WD's better than subs in my opinion. Once your clean and your tolerance is nice and low, it will make you feel pretty good, it's obviously nothing like oxy or heroin, more like vicodin.

>>334587

what if i just want to keep doing drugs though?

>>334589

That's your decision to make. When I was on that boy-boy I couldn't even conceive of being sober, I figured I would be on it until I got locked up or died of an overdose. After I had enough, there was definitely a period of adjustment that sucked and I certainly struggled to find my path. But man, I know this will sound cliche but I am so much happier and more productive. I'm not trying to convince you to stop but just know that there is life on the other side and it's pretty sweet.

>>334590

how did you get to that realization? i know i need to but i just dont want to. yknow? fuck man… like i know im headed towards the shit but since the path is so nice i ignore my destination and focus on the journey

>>334584

HM doesn't even write like that.
