So my friend asks me how's my alcohol and cigarette addiction going. I told her even though i've reduced my alcohol intake, my cigarette addiction is about the same if not worse. So she says to me "no offense, but i wouldn't even think about dating someone who smokes cigarettes". I says to her, do u know why i smoke cigs? She says why? I explained it's because it pacifies the extreme anger i feel towards myself, people and the world. I told her if even though drugs are killing me slowly, if it weren't for them I would do something so extreme out of anger that i would kill myself today.

As i'm pouring my heart out, she says, "i gotta go". As soon as she leaves, my anger got so out of hand that i nearly smashed the cup in my hand against the ground.

Where are real friends? They tell me they are my friends when things are going good, but as soon as shit hits the fan, they say "oh i just remembered, i got something else to do". Just like my fucking family.

People get angry when theyre in pain. Sounds like you got your feelings hurt because your friend wasnt sensitive your needs. Maybe that kind of talk makes her uncomfortable, who knows.

The kind of anger youre describing is probably the result of you caring too much about something but not being able to resolve it, so you just get extremely frustrated. The best thing might be to try to let go somewhat and not care so much about the flippancy of fair weather friends.

I only want to sleep with people who don't behave like that person. Hell, I'd rather sleep with a man who's loyal than some disloyal bitch.

Ok so how do i let go? Do you mean stop talking to this person altogether? Wouldn't that make me a hypocrite?

You can either decide not to keep them as a friend, or stay friends with them but accept that they arent the kind of friend that you can open up to

My post was just as productive as any others. You're deluded into thinking your friend was at fault but I come offering a tall dose of reality and you immediately reject it. Others will agree with me, so if hypocrisy is a concern be sure to attack them too.

Everyone else so far has offered good advice except paranoid. What dose of reality? That you're a trash friend? Also stop projecting, hypocrite.

Doesn't exercise release endorphines in your brain just like drugs? I want solutions to a mental issue, what u described would kick the can down the road but wouldn't solve the root of the problem.

Seek. Professional. Help.

Dont be like so many other people who refuse it despite obviously needing it. Trying to help yourself is nothing to be ashamed of. It's astrength. It's the weak person who says, "what good will that do, why bother?"

here are things that work:

cognitive behavioural therapy
meditation
therapy in general

therapy is often expensive, which really sucks. but there are usually cheaper options available locally. buy books on anger management. buy books on quitting smoking. find one that speaks to you. go to the library and look at what books they have on these things, on cognitive behavioural therapy. talk to people you know who have quit smoking.

Yes. At least crackheads will tell you their own story, while a professional will only tell you what you're doing wrong, thereby crushing your spirit and inflating their pocket.

Yes, you can learn from a crackheads story. I do not relate to a vast majority of professionals, but I know for a fact that objective and scientifically sound advice from a grounded individual, be they a professional or not, is helpful. Sure, I would agree a majority of professionals are rich kids with little practical advice for someone who has struggled. There are many who struggled, and came from places you personally know. To disregard this is to disregard obvious fact.
