The Official My Team Sucks So **** The Playoffs Thread

The only pills I have ever taken were Aderal and I took the hell out of them in high school. It would make me a d bag though. Everything pisses you off when you take them except homework lol. I took a extended release 70 milligram once when I was taking the ACT and I stayed up for almost 2 days straight. I can't believe doctors prescribe that **** to kids. It makes you like a zombie.

I have an addictive personality so I'm glad I never touched opiates or anything else harder than weed. My brother is an opiate addict and it has completely ruined his life. He's lost pretty much everything this past year. Two jobs, his marriage, his house, etc. I hate to see the harm drugs causes to people and their families. Never knew that about you Jerry but I'm proud you turned away from all that man.

I'm just trying to kick my porn habit. Yall might think this is funny and may not believe me but porn has similar affects to your brain as drugs. It screws with your serotonin levels bad. Yall should check out yourbrainonporn. It's on YouTube.
 
Sorry to hear about your brother. This may sound like weird advice, but don't try to force him into treatment. Addicts react poorly to confrontation, nobody can tell us anything, and generally relapse when pressured into it. Just be there for him as much as you can, let him know you love him and have his back, talk about it casually not aggressively. An addicts mind is a crazy place, we generally feel unloved, unwanted, and like every is out to get us. I know it's hard but he has to want to quit, or it just stays in a vicious cycle. My sisters helped me in the way I described and I wouldn't be alive without them and their love for me. Stay strong man, I hope he can find his way.

Thanks it was a struggle but I'm good now. It has made me appreciate life in a totally different way.

Blasphemy porn is awesome. Lol

Watching Ball Up:Search For the Next and its in Louisville. I wonder if Dallas tried out. Lol

Lol I actually want to do one of those things, I done one. Awhile back that was for kids I think I was like 13, we made it to the final four then got killed.
 
I was never a hardcore addict in any sense of the word, but damn Jerry...i feel ya man. That's some rough crap you and others have gone through. Even in my limited experience with those issues, I've learned family and friends solve the problems more than family. It's a ***** to admit you've got a problem, or that there are things you cant fully control. But I've seen denial and the vicious cycle you talk about. Pray for those who struggle with it.
 
I'm thankful every day that my parents forced me to deal with my issues rather than stick me on some meds and shove me in a classroom.
 
BTW, there are a lot of good recovery stories out there, but I really like Duff McKagan's biography. He went through total transformation. He didn't just kick a habit. He changed from IDGAF rock star into kickboxing Jesus.

Different thing. This is for a street ball team trying to get a contract. I played in a ton of 3 on 3 when I was young

The only problem is most hardcore addicts are only friends with addicts and they have no desire to help you. I had to totally remove myself from friends. Most people have to hit bottom, but bottom is different for everyone
 
Thanks for the advice Jerry. Yeah my brother was the last person I thought that would ever get addicted to pills. Don't get me wrong he smoked a ton of pot lol. But never touched pills until a couple of years ago. His wife was been addicted for years but I didn't know this until I found out my brother was. I blame her a lot even though I know that it was my brothers choice to start taking them though.

He's my older brother and we have always been really close. I used to look up to him growing up. But this has really put distance in between us. I have a lot of built up resentment towards him now because of all of the lies he has told. On top of that he has probably spent at least 30,000 of my grandparents money supporting his habit plus keeping up with bills.
