Feedback

I got some cool angry feedback from some moron:

"This is such a load of crap. If this guy really gave a shit about his problem, he would just stop. 30 days off of porn and his head would be on straight.

Come on, lets stop kidding around: either admit that you have dont care and plan on continuing to fuck up your head by looking at smut, or knock it off."


It's great when people actually believe that addiction isn't real and is just an excuse for a fondness for something.

My wife used to be the same way, and maybe still is, to some extent. She would tell me that anyone who wanted to make their way out of an addiction or a ghetto, if they really wanted it, they'd do it.

While that's sometimes true, sometimes there are people that do want it but don't know how to break the cycle. Other times there are people who would like to but aren't even aware it's possible. But mostly there are people who are too despondent to even get the energy up to consider persevering.

And all the rest are addicts.




I shake my head at but also laugh at these people who think there are no addicts. These are the same people who use their own logic to explain how the world is. But they've got it backward: they need to look at how the world is and accept it. If they can understand it, fine. If not, too bad, their idea of what makes sense (like anybody being able to quit an addiction if they just "really want to") doesn't change what's REAL.





The other day I once again tried to go to sleep at like midnight and wake up at like 7 or 8 like a normal person. But I stayed up all night, went to sleep at like 6:30 and slept all day. During that time my wife opened literally every window in the house and every door but the front door. Naturally I became sick and have been for the past two days. She knows this happens to me every time she does this, without fail. When I brought it up, you know what her reply was? Not "Oops" or "Sorry" or anything of the sort. It was, and I quote,

"Well you shouldn't have been sleeping in the daytime."

Great. Thanks. And you're pissed at me??
