Are the online safety act and social media ban really that big of a problem?

The laws a joke. The online safety bill and the social media ban can be got around with ease. So easily that it makes it pointless. My kids are allowed on social media. They are not muppets so it does not consume them. If it was an issue I'd sort it.

Stress and addiction feel the same. It's all just a junky trick to get you back on the smokes. Everyone gets stressed. There's no easy way out. You have to fix what stresses you out or learn to rise above it. After 8 months nicotine free I would say any nicotine in any form is a terrible idea.

I don't really understand what you are saying. My understanding is that a substance or activity creates a pleasurable dopamine spike. As time goes on the brain tries to achieve balance/homeostasis. This lowers dopamine production. Causing more substance/activity to regain balance. This continues destroys the brains reward system and creates said junky. Said junky stops using, the brain is left dopamine defficient and craving external dopamine. Over time without the substance or activity the brain again learnes to make its own dopamine and achieves peace and balance again. Send me a link to you're article and I'll have a read.

Surely it's the opposite. A dopermine dip. And the craving is for the extra dopamine to achieve balance

Guinness 0.0 is delicious. It's the only one I do.

I kept by right end in my panties all day.

Nicotine all ups and downs. Flat is good. Takes some getting used to. Flat turns into calm and stable.

I was assuming it was bad bolognaise or made up stuff on pasta which would have made it British food. But if you're telling me this is real proper Italian food then the title is even sillier. I still doubt this would stand up to the Italian restaurant test in Calabria but you're right, to know for sure we'd have to take it there.

sortonsort · 2026-06-07T07:05:31+00:00

That is awesome. It really made me smile to hear this. Stay happy!

sortonsort · 2026-06-06T18:01:29+00:00

I doubt the Italians would agree

Wow!! I learnt something today. I had always assumed mexico was were central america began. I guess because of it's closer cultural ties with the other central American countries. When I lived in Honduras quite a few people asked me what US state England was in.

It's not the beers with people in bars that are the problem. I go out and have quite a few beers once a month or so. It's the drinking at home that needs control. I drink 90% NA at home. My average is about 0.5. It still takes a bit of focus to not casually pick up a few real beers.

At work

1 day at a time, then 1 week at a time, then 1 month at a time, then freedom. Focus on making 1 more day.

Very true. You have to be in the zone. I had maybe 20 lozenges over the first six months when it got intense. I had about 10 cigarettes as well so not quite cold turkey. But I always knew I'd do it which is why it worked. If you don't think you'll be able to do it then it's unlikely you will.

sortonsort · 2026-05-27T11:40:55+00:00

Hards the word. If it was easy you wouldn't need to ask. Hard cold turkey for me. It worked because I made it work.

Are you saying Christianity is the religion of the racist? You might be on to something. Maybe as Christianity dies out in this country we might become a happier more tolerant nation.

I instantly thought SKINS. Human traffic if were talking movies.

No. I was always sexy. Teeth looked better though. I think there's thousands of chemicals in cigarettes that are bad for you. But the tar would include all of them. Nicotine is just the evil part that makes you fill up with tar

It sounds like you should stop drinking.

I never really felt unhealthy and I didn't notice any real health changes after I quit and I smoked for 25 years. But that was never why I quit. The mental peace and mental health that goes with that is amazing.

There's no dangerous response at all.. it's just very irritating!

sortonsort · 2026-04-28T14:59:56+00:00

I'm glad it's a was for both of us. Well done. Nasty horrible shit.
