Nerd, honeybunny, funcle, idiot, pretty-much in that order.
Also a rapidly ageing theoretical physicist and engineer who wishes he could still compete in marathon canoeing and field hockey.

Recently saw an ex head of GCHQ say he didn't believe such claims, so it could well be rubbish.

For now though, I can hold my head high and say yes, I did have a problem, but I came out the other side stronger. Never again will I be a slave to it, never again will I let it define me as a person. Never again will I let social boardgaming take over my life. Stay safe everybody. Peace and love.

As for whether I'll ever do it again. Perhaps some day I'll be able to trust myself with just the one. I honestly still don't know. Maybe in the right circumstances, but I vowed long ago I'd never touch the heavy stuff again for the sake of my wife, who could never stand that sort of thing.

The paraphernalia of the addiction still lingers. Countless plastic 'baggies' as they're known in the lingo, far more than I'll ever need now. But I don't feel I have to to throw them away. Thankfully I've come to terms with my problem and I'm ready to take my life forward in a positive direction.

You can't blame your friends either. They're all as lost in the sauce as you and you're all enabling each other. Normalising days at a time in dimly lit rooms, far from the judging eyes of the rest of society. Living off pizza and take away deliveries. It's something we're gonna have to live with.

Sometimes I feel guilty for having let things get so bad, but I'm just a product of my environment. I'm only human after all and once you get sucked in, it's always "go on, just one more". £25 quid here, £50 there and before you know it you're at the bring and buy to try and make some cash.

You can spend hours at a time just completely zoned out. Unaware of the world around you, focused on tiny details that are wholly irrelevant to the rest of humanity. If I add it all up I must have spent months of my life being completely unproductive, contributing nothing to society whatsoever.
