  Alcoholism - a disease or a choice?

  by Sirona in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  alcoholics anonymous claims that alcoholism is a disease.

  somehow i think that is just a way of excusing the person from the responsibility that they chose to drink and they chose to let it become an addiction.. what do you think?.

  I'm on the fence about it, too. When I was an alcoholic, I was drunk whenever possible. I was also a teenager. Unfortunately, I didn't have help, but eventually did stop on my own. Looking back, I don't consider it a disease for myself. For others, I don't know. It was more of a mental thing convincing my body to go into alcohol overload.

  Introducing myself

  2. friends

  i've been lurking here for a while, so i figured it's time for me to introduce myself.

  i was raised in "the truth".

  both of my parents were witnesses, and so were their parents.

  what is the deal with the male species thinking it is ok, to pick their nose in public??.

  i find it repulsive .... it just seems to me,when i catch people picking their nose, in almost all cases,it is a man doing it..... do men, find it hard to find a kleenex???.

  morty of the, taught my boys not to pick their booger's in public class...

  .

  was just looking at the depression post and looking at pepole's biography.. why doesn't a lot of members put anything in there bio.. i undersatnd that many may not want to be identified, but i think bio makes it easier for us to undersand each others history.

  I didn't see the need to add one since I hardly read them. But realized it would be helpful for others to know a lil something about me, like how I got here in the first place. So, I just did so a few days ago.

  Under74, I thought you were a man, too. (I don't know why!)

  As for the vicodin, ask for the real stuff and not generic! Will you be asleep for the procedure?

  I don't know why anyone would quit...I loved it! I'm a former student and was unable to finish due to other obligations of my time. I miss it. I can only do a swedish massage and some myo.

  Do you see real people here at JWD?

  by jeanniebeanz in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  when people post to jwd, do you make an effort to understand "who" they are and take an interest in their wellbeing, or are they just 'ghosts in a machine' there to entertain you?

  do the people here fall somewhere in-between for you?

  do you think it matters?

  I see them as real since personalities often come through in writing.
