Hang tough, Aegon. As you said, get through today and it gets more manageable. You can do it!
My housemate is aware of my problem. He usually helps me when the going gets tough.
I miss the feeling of being able to do anything. That's what it gave me. The efficiency, the euphoria... it's funny how I can spout all this spiritual B.S. to other people but I can't listen to it myself when push comes to shove. Such is the irrationality of addiction, I suppose.
Yes, but always remember that it's the brain chemistry talking. The irrationality of addiction is grounded in the dopamine tone.
Good luck with your finals. You know the drill: one assignment -- and day -- at a time.
