I'm going straight edge!

[allieking]

about time hun, your wonderful but sometimes you can be a little annoying and i'm sure stopping drugs will help.

[Sygy]

why thank you m'dear.

[allieking]

also hun if you need any help of any kind you know where i am, i'm proud of you for being so honest about yourself and taking responsibility.

[Sygy]

this going rather well actually, i havnt smoked yet (eventhough its killing me to do so) and i havnt really drunk anything. XD

[Stenners]

Ur taking on too much at once, one at a time sygy is the way forward, the addiction levels & habbits combined will cause much more stress when trying to quit together than 1 by 1.

[crazy robster]

Congrats on your great decision and on the effort you're making Sygy, a million congrats! *squeezes hand*

[Sygy]

thanks so much.

 

i went to the chemist and got my FREE nicotine gum and stuff i also brought these weird herbal ciggerettes which are suppose to hep you quit, they taste awful. maybe thats there plan to make it taste so bad you dont have to many, but does anyone how the nicotine patches work? im fairly interested.

[Brkng_Th_Hbt]

Nothing will be extremely hard unless your addicted, however the whole thing will be a bit tough because the whole "well, i could just do it this once and not hurt anything." Which is whats really got me so far, as I've been trying the same thing, but I think I'm officially straight, so good luck in your quest, I don't think i coulda done it if I were as far in as you are, but then again I have like nonexistant willpower.

 

That happened to me a few times, and just like you, I think I'm officially straight, haha. Hopefully it'll stay that way... My willpower also isn't that great.

 

And just so people know, straightedge is NOT going around wearing an X on your hand. It's a lifestyle and there's a lot more to it then just "no drugs". And if you go around saying you're straight edge, people might make fun of you and tell you to quit labeling yourself. (I just hate it when people say "hey I quite doing weed, I'm straightedge now!" and they put a huge X on their hand and they're offically xEDGEx)

 

But congrats Sygy! This is a really good and smart decision. Hopefully you'll follow through.

 

Here's a nice Straightedge explanation to anyone that wants to really know what it's about: http://www.faqs.org/faqs/cultures/straight-edge-faq/preamble.html

is drinking alot a problem? shit ^_^

good to hear you doing well!!!!! keep on going to the end

[diana]

I don't think that nicotine shit and other stuff help...I mean, I wouldn't use them, if I were you...I think...but hey, good work! Keep on going...

[DarknessLover]

Great luck my man! I hope you see through all these problems!

[HaziLPTonz]

nico patches? they work by coming in direct contact with ur skin, the substance is then absorbed directly through ur skin into the blood stream and so on. neat lil trick isnt it

 

anyways, like stenners said,oine at a time mate, smoking,drugs AND beer? unless youve filled it with something ur gonna be nagged at for ages, i find it hard giving up chocolate, so a big good luck from me

 

mind you, drinkings not too bad, they say a lil alcho here and there helps your longegivity

[azemkamikaze03]

crack?

yea if ur gunna do the one thing at a time drop the coke. that shit will mess you up in the long run.

 

Anyways, quitting this stuff only marks your journey into true maturity.

[Sygy]

yes azem, avnt done coke in ages now -.-

 

thanx Hazi for explaining it to me!

 

and again, thank you to everyone who posted.

Uber props on taking up the straight edge lifestyle. Truly one of the best subcultures out there...I like how they have latched onto the truth that the best way to live life is to live it sober. Ridding your body of outside influences and such. It teaches you self control and self worth, both of which are so important and seem to have gone MIA these days in pop culture.

[LPGirl]

Sygy you do know that once you claim edge, your ment to be edge till death or your a sellout and if your in the edge scene your fucked cuz everyone will be out for blood and im not even joking

.

No drinking, smoking, or drugs of any form at all and that includes promiscuous sex.

so idk its just a reallly big thing and id probably think it over before you start claiming edge.

you can quit smoking and all the but you dont have to claim.

 

seriously some edge kids go as far as being vegan and caffeine free.

[Stenners]

I read once that a gig full of Edged people can be more aggresive and violent then those on a bender!!!!!! And edged people piss me off they have supiriority complex 90% of the time, often smug and force their beliefs on others.

 

And they take it FAR too seriously, when you know when being cannibal is cool (which it will be its called cannocore) they will drop sXe faster then you can 'George bush is made out of caramel tarts'

[Sygy]

^smug?,oh they sound liek you, dear!

 

Thanks, LPgirl. Believe me i read up on it before i decided to commit, so i know what it entails, Im not too worried about my friends getting aangry at me if i break it because none of them are into it anyways, and i dont really know any people in the scene either so i think i'll be fine ! As for sex, hmmm well i havnt had any in some quite time so i think it'll be fine! thanks for the advice though! !

I think straight edges nutjobs keep us feeling normal. It gives us someone to call crazy.

[Sygy]
