The thought of being totally incapable of controlling my body freaks me the hell out. <BR/><BR/>Of course, my control-freakness is also probably one more reason why I've never had the big "O", so...<BR/><BR/>I guess you win some and lose some, eh? <BR/><BR/>Best of luck with the detox.

I often write in my journal, trying to get my entire story out, parts of my past, and it is exhausting.<BR/><BR/>Interestingly, I always felt the exact same way as you: if it's just some weak, silly drug, like Robo-tripping (what the kids over here do with Robitussin) or weed, I don't want it.
