I thought amphetamines would be compulsive for me, because I'm always doing lot's of stuff and don't really see sleep as pleasure but more like necessary self-care. I was scared because I thought I would be easily addicted to them. I saw the allure of the endless energy they provide. So when I first got some I threaded very carefully.
Turned out stims are not my thing, I guess. Sometimes I used them to get some extra work done. But since at the beginning of my use I "taught" myself to avoid them if possible, I rarely indulge in them. If im too tired at work I try to just ride it out, unless there's something REALLY urgent.
Haven't found my drug weakness yet. Opiates are nice but not something I would crave on a regular basis. I have avoided experimenting too much with them though. When I tried morphine I dosed it orally, out of caution. For a while I grew a little too fond of ketamine, but at some point it got self-regulating. I still have like 30 ml left of a pharmaceutical solution and haven't touched it in months. Booze was never my thing either. I think the only drug that is really compulsive to me is cannabis, but its not particularly problematic and I can easily go a couple of weeks without it.
I dunno, I guess I'm VERY lucky.
On a different note, I'm currently at work unable to concentrate. I'm starting to feel REALLY tired. Work has been pretty intense the last couple of months and I haven't stopped since a couple of days off in September. Besides that, I haven't had vacations since the two weeks I took a year ago now. Starting to crave some time off.
Luckily I'll have three weeks off in March. We are going to the north of Peru, and if time and money allows, the south of Ecuador
