i bet 90% of the board have some form of addictive personality.

Was reading an article 'bout that in New Scientist t'other day. Latest research seems to have confirmed a strong contender for a genetic basis for "addictive personality". Specifically, people who carry the A1 allele of the DRD2 gene have screwed up dopamine systems making them massively more prone to addictions of all forms - not just alcoholism and drugs but also gambling and even internet porn and stuff. And obesity, so not all good then :\

Other researchers are apparently a bit dubious as to how much of a role the genetic side plays but their entire argument appears to be that they don't think addicts should have an "excuse" and should blame their lack of "moral character". Yes, I think the research was done in the US. Don't think we have "moral characters" in Blighty do we? :D

I don't take any benzos, pretty much for the reasons you've highlighted above. Tbh I NEED them. but I hate forgetting things, and I don't need any help on that score really.

Good luck with thee above <3

In other news I fucking hate acid reflux. One bottle of Cava and I fell asleep earlier, but I just woke up with acid reflux spurting through my nose. Least sexiest thing ever. Just eaten half a packet of rennies and back to bed for meee

I didn't need them before I had them prescribed but do, increasingly, now ironically:| You live and learn

Go and see the Quack M, My mum had bad acid reflux that couldn't be soothed with Gaviscon etc and she ended up with a hiatus hernia. V painfu!

Hope you're all bright n bushy tailed this luvvley sunny monrning. I' ve got a small amount of paperwork to do. Drop the nipper of at work then I'm freeee so might sort my garden out.

Does anyone know if its too late to put Narcissus and snow drops down. I've put the bulbs in late before but never December,

Morning, atm :)

I have a mighty odd sleeping pattern. Just so happens that my waking hourse are overlapping with morning today. Actually managed to sleep through yesterday entirely then woke up at 3am today. I blame too much booze t'other night and (hopefully) my bloody serotonin levels settling down a bit as it's been a week since I stopped taking me tramadol (again). Rather than the usual electric soupymushy sloshing around me head I think I might have detected one or two properly firing braincells today in amongst the fizzing and frothery. Wooty :)

Wasn't it still warm and sunny this time last year? Certainly not as nippy as this. First year in a few that it's just a normal kinda autumn and it feels stupidly cold. Come back global warming all is forgiven :|

Indeed. I saw my doc about the deadly heartburn I've had these last few months and he gave me omeprazole (again - worked miracles when I had an ulcer in the past) and a bucket of Gaviscon Advance chewable pills. Said to take the omeprazole first then a few minutes later munch down a Gaviscon to seal in the Goodness, as it were. Actually found the Gaviscon worked pretty well on its own. Was amazed. Never had the indigestion pills with that alginate stuff in cos I only ever buy the cheapest ones. Together with the omeprazole I reckon I could eat nowt but lemons washed down with neat hydrochloric acid all day with no problem.
 
Speaking of which, a few posts up. How long is diazepam detectable in ua? I know its awesomely long half life. This is isn't a drug test question just a general inquiry. I'm intrigued, as its the metabolites that have the long half life isn't it?

A fuckload of time

Fuckload is an internationally recognized unit of measure

On a serious note I think I remember reading something like 100 hours, but I might be wrong

M.X.E ( which gave me heartburn and i've never had it in my life) helped me get off Tramadol and Pregab together{I/] in 3 days.. The trip was mostly horrid though but I don't remember any of it.

Even after hating Tram and finding it such a bastard to untangle myself from its still has an attraction to me. wierd that isn't it?

Mrs atm swigged from Litre bottles of Gaviscon whilst pregnant, I'd wake to see her knocking the stuff back just like me with a bottle of scotch.

I can't stomach the stuff myself, I think its the whole consistency and the thought of it, either way it makes me wretch, I prefer a Rennie or 5, I've also found continuous consumption of extra strong mints surprisingly effective.

I generally munch Rennie by the fistful but was getting pricey and need loads before they actually did much of anything. Was kindly sent a big bottle of gloopy aniseedy stuff (ASDA own brand?) by and EADDer (presumably due to mucho bitching 'bout acidy-heartburny stuff on my part) a while back that worked pretty well but am not a fan of aniseed. Tried other OTC stuff but the cheap ones did sod all for the most part and can't afford a brand name antacid habit so docs it was. Rennie also do an "Advance" version with the same aginate stuff in that seems to be the magic ingredient (for me anyway). Bit icky to chew cos it's kinda gunky but works a treat.

This is quite an interesting article, a bit long but definately worth the time. It's about opium by the way

Not a bad read but riddled with utter twaddle from beginning to end. What is it about opium that makes people believe so much utter cock? I'm sure oldskool lamp/pipe combo is just dandy but a hell of a lotta faff really. Tinfoil 'n' tooter do the job just fine. Has the man never heard of vaping? 8)

Planning a wedding is stressful as fuck.

Coke binges the night before don't help either.

Planning a wedding can be stressful. Im experiencing a fair bit of sress right now related to exactly that. All the difficulties are x3 given the fact we are going to italy and we dont speak the language. Not to mention the cost.

I used to take omeprazole- worked a fuckin treat. That and tons of Gaviscon worked well. My bedroom was littered with empty packets of the stuff for a while. Thank fuck I no longer suffer from that. Good luck with it.

In fact I used to walk into clubs with packets of gaviscon all the time and they would always examine the packet and wave me in. Not realising I had 10 ectos in my pocket. Ha ha stupid cunts.

I know, but for being an article on mainstream media(Vanity Fair of all places) I found it quite interesting, quite a lot of detail and fairly well written.

Ya. Was a good read as a travelogue piece. Would love to go a-questing for opium dens. Can quite believe you'd meet some interesting folks. Not sure I'd fancy the dodging bullets evading local security folk in the company of a yaba'd up nutter so much but definitely added to the tale :D
