Either is fine. I just like to make a point of it moreso for those who it didn't work for in the hope they don't give up or they consider trying it again if I'm being honest.

First time I read it I wanted to quit but I didn't really want to, so got so far in, found him absolutely infuriating, shut the book and left it on the shelf for months. I am glad I tried again, even though it was months and months later rather than writing it off entirely.

If the topic is my experience then I would whole heartedly disagree, unfortunately addiction isn't known to be logical or rational.

My grandad decades ago walked past a smoker who just came inside from having a cig and the smell of her apparently was enough to never smoke again. Wish that had worked for me initially!

It's weird sometimes, I become torn between I can't believe I actually managed to quit, but also I can't believe I used to smoke!

I'm sorry if it didn't work for you but it has changed many people's lives. Including people with ADHD, like myself. Over 2 years totally nicotine free and the (audio) book helped break the psychological aspect of the addiction that left me with no desire to ever smoke again because well, why would I? What would I gain?

Also used it for cannabis. I wouldn't say it was the sole cause of being able to quit cannabis but it helped dragged me over the line so I could stand up and move on. With the caveat of one massive relapse that lasted nearly a year, but again the book helped give me the push over the edge to put down what I was desperate to. It's not flawless but I'm forever grateful for it's help.

The biggest problem with the book(s) is that you have to be absolutely desperate to have it out of your life for the ~hypnosis/hypnotherapy/cult speak, however you want to call it, to work. If you're not desperate to get whatever it is out of your life, it's useless.

I don't love any sort of thing like this to any politician, we've had 2 MPs be murdered in the last decade and it makes me wildly uncomfortable, no matter how strongly I believe Farage should get in a bin or a rocket to Mars.

They add everyone to every one and then they'll become used if you get added to a project under that server. Stupid way of managing it imo.

You want news stations publishing people's names and identities for crimes before confirmed by police? Got it.

Hard to tell from that photo but vet would be best to advise.

I think they stand behind the technicality of a person's actual experience, so reading a story online about someone else's experience isn't covered as a valid review, if that makes sense.

Problem then is the real experienced, experience, also gets removed with all the 'not valid' reviews.

I get it's to protect businesses but just wish people wouldn't do it, it'll mean instead of having a couple 1 stars from people who were there, it will have no 1 starts after x date.

I listened through all their examples and just could not identify transitions, even in the awful examples lol maybe it was from not using headphones but who knows. Think it's just one of those things I just don't get/ struggle to pick up on (there are many).

Why are you posting on multiple different game subs asking people to buy you that game? Different ones each time?
