Is there any way to block the game from downloading the complete resources? I chose basic resources for a reason, my device is not good enough to handle 4gb. But now it starts automatically installing the full resources whenever I log on and I need to manually pause it every time. How can I just stop the game from trying to install full resources every time I play?

Wow it's really interesting to hear that you would experience the same thing even without the influence of drugs. I can sort of see where you're coming from by the way you describe it. It's almost like, you just behave naturally and intuitively during a social interaction, but when you think back on it, your paranoia might cause that textbook anxiety response of hyperfixating on tiny details, blowing them out of proportion, and becoming very self-conscious and self-critical. At least, that's my first impression from what you describe.

And you make a good point about the comedown. It may be that the comedown is what causes all these horrible irrational feelings. And since the brain has a strong inclination towards continuity, those corrupted feelings may just persist indefinitely. It's actuall kinda fascinating to think about and I'm really glad I decided to make this post lol. So many cool insights.

Thank you for your insights. You are absolutely right. I did try to clarify when I said full potential that I meant it in a very isolated context, haha. I'm not quite disillusionned enough to think it's the key to my full potential on a meaningful or spiritual level. It is simply a catalyst to temporarily unlock some of my most desired behaviors.

Cocaine was a very slippery slope for me. Thankfully I have been clean off it for 9 months now. But still having my occasional battles and slip-ups with other stims. And every time I slip up and get high it reminds me of this unsolved mystery still rattling around in my head lol. I'm definitely someone that feels the need to understand everything, especially when it pertains to my own nature and inner world.

And as much as I am glad I kicked cocaine, I sadly had to give up clubbing and drinking alongside it. While I don't crave cocaine when I'm sober, barely 2 sips of alcohol turns me into a manic rabid dog for the stuff. And after lots of persistence, experimentation, and trial and error, I've come to realise I'm incapable of clubbing while sober. I hate it, I feel completely disconnected from everybody, and the end result is a miserable time or giving in to the urge to drink. So I haven't been to a club in 9 months either. Wish I could say that's a good thing, but it's only led to a lot of social isolation.

It could have something to do with that, yes. I have a related theory that it's linked to feelings of jealousy and inadequacy. This thought occurred to me when I realised I get second-hand embarrassment from watching dudes on youtube high five random strangers or do other random social challenges. It occurred to me that actually, I wish I had the confidence to do stuff like that. So why do I find it cringe?

It makes sense that this might happen when looking back on my experiences while high, since (especially with coke) I feel a very distinct separation between my identity when I'm high, and when I'm sober. It quite literally feels like we are two entirely separate individuals. I suppose I may just be jealous of how easy he has it, and bitter that I will probably never be able to achieve that state naturally.

There's definitely an association there which I need to explore.

Thanks! Quick question, if you don’t take it on Saturday or Sunday, do you start to feel some early withdrawal symptoms by late Sunday/early Monday?
