I find it wildy entertaining when people on here get overly defensive about insults from anons.
When you put yourself out there on the internet, there are going to be people who insult, make fun of, and put you down. There is no way around it.
So you sitting there, getting all upset and mad, and fighting back, is just going to fuel their fire, and make them say worse shit that makes you feel even more shitty.
If you can’t handle criticism, get the fuck off the internet.

the ‘pink cloud’ is best described as a period of time where the addict or alcoholic experiences a reprieve from the struggles associated with early recovery. these struggles are generally associated with feelings of depression, anger, resentment, self pity, and the realization of where their drug addiction or alcoholism has taken them. upon experiencing this phenomenon for the first time, the addict or alcoholic is understandably excited. they begin to believe they now “hold the key” to their recovery. this is where the seed for relapse is planted. they begin to believe more in themselves than in the process they have been following. without the pain as a daily reminder, they tend to forget about what it took for them to embrace recovery…each day is a series of ups and downs, highs and lows, usually accompanied by depression, frustration, hopelessness, anger, resentment, which the addict or alcoholic is accustomed to coping with through the use of drugs, alcohol, or unhealthy behavioral choices.

Am I addicted or not?
Im not addicted to the Internet. I only surf when I have time: lunch time, break time, off time, no time, this time, any time, all the time.

I’ve heard it a million times. “You can do better. You deserve so much more.” In reality, you’re right. But sometimes when you love, you love the person for who they are despite what they’ve done wrong to you. That’s what love does to you. It’s not about who you deserve, it’s about who you want, who you need, and who you love.
