re: TM7 will remain at drug rehab center (in lieu of playing FB) for the near future

Is this story legit? I don't know what the hell to believe anymore...and honestly, as much as I loved watching the kid play ball at LSU, I'm over this whole thing.

Some of what you say has some truth, i am a addict, got clean over five years ago, smoked pot for about 15 years, i am 36 and cocaine in all its forms did me in.

Anything done in habit that takes you away from your responsibilities would be considered a unhealthy addiction. Whether its video games, fishing, sex, work etc. however these are behavior problems, and can be overcome through self discipline and a will to fight.

If its cocaine however, its not just behavioral, you are talking about the most mentally addictive drug out there (due to serotonin shutdown dopamine reuptake etc), VERY powerful addiction and in this context would be a physical addiction.

If its pills or opiates of any kind it's a physical addiction moreso then mental. Being a recovering cocaine addict myself, the though of using 5 years later and I still want to shite my pants and have trouble breathing (you're body thinks its actually about to get high)

Pot is harmfull only in the previous example. Basically harmless. Tyrans problem is tyran.
