But with my depresion and other problems, i rather like where i am at now, and with my moods changing, so does what i do to feel better change.
Ever take drugs or drink to where it becomes or became a problem?
Personal example:
I went to a party and did some speed. Didn't like it much but I liked that I could party all night and into the next day without getting tired or drunk. After that party I didn't touch the stuff again, so I reasoned that since I didn't do it all the time it was ok as a party drug.
So next party it was there so I do it again...kinda like it at this point so I do a little more than last time and again party all night into the next day and feel its ok because I don't do it all the time.
One day I decide it would be fun to do with some friends just hanging out....then I do it because I am tired and have to go to work....then I do it just because its there...then I do it because I am hooked and can't function without it.
All this time people notice changes in me and that i am losing weight, not as happy as I once was, dirty and unwashed at times, spacey at times...and the list goes on.
Same principal applies...everyone says they can control it until its too late and by then it takes something serious to make them aware of the problem and the changes occuring.
