So I can look back on all those times in my past and see oh what fun I had? Are you kidding?
I see that time in health now, all the fuck they brainwashed down our throats. I remember that time...and now I wish I'd cut that class entirely.
"'Anyone know the way to get rid of an addiction? Anyone?" one annoying little bitch in the back raised her hand and answered,
"Fix the problem."
"Exactly, if you're addicted to alcohol or drugs because of stress to just take away the pain, they really just add more pain. I like to give the example of a funnel. Let's pretend every stress you have is like a chunk of sand. When you put the stress of work and school and friends and everything we've identified as stress into this funnel, and the sand fills it up so much that it all gets clogged up, the sand can't flow, the stress can't be released. And then you try to loosen up the blockage to relieve the stress, right? So let's pretend water is drugs and alcohol. When you poor on the drugs, the alcohol, it loosens the stress for a moment, but then it tightens up the blockage even more. Drugs and alcohol may relieve the pain momentarily, but the relief doesn't last. So, what do we do again to help relieve the pain and the stress?" annoying bitch again.
"Fix the problem."
"Yes. Loosen up, drop the stress, let go of the hurt, just feel good about yourself. Go work out, go talk to someone, go places with friends. Don't just sit wallowing in pity. The pain is self-inflicted, so don't think that drugs and alcohol and self-mutilation and all that stuff is gonna take it all away." I looked at my hands, bored. Ninth grade health was slightly sucky anyway.'" I can't believe we teach the kids in school this crap. You think you can just let go of a problem? You think I can just wake up one day and say, "I'm gonna stop hurting in my muscle-less thigh today!" you think I can do that? No, I can't. So shut up, bitch, jeez.
Hope you liked it.
