I didn’t realize that I had a problem until I viewed my post count one day. My God, what had happened? It all began innocently enough, a little post, just to be sociable, than a response. I joined groups and got further corrupted. Large groups of nudists with similar interests, not communicating with one other. It seemed a shame.
I saw posts from those who I felt might do something to discredit nudism. My fingers would begin to type as if they had a mind of their own. Fortunately, to date I’ve been able the avoid the hard stuff, the “Chat Room”.
I feel that some of the blame for my addiction belongs to, Cuddlebutton, Swifty, Rabbitnbunny, UKrudegirl and others whose interesting, informative and sometimes humorous posts have made it too difficult to kick the habit.
I’m off to Google “Internet Rehab”. I’m sure on the vast www. that there is help for me and others.

- MEMemberSep 25, 2009Mac...welcome! You took that first important step and found your way here! And you're willing to accept and admit that...um...you have an addiction. But, really, foisting the responsibility to others, laying blame on those who have the same affliction, tsk, tsk. LOL, You will need to attend a lot more meetings! Jen

Sep 25, 2009Opps, a belated welcome to the group Mac, I too have been neglecting to come to the meetings. Perhaps we should all make a new effort to attend.

Thanks to all for the warm welcome to this therapy group. Since I still feel the need to blame others for my addiction, I must be in denial. The problem is even more serious than I suspected. I will be attending these meeting until I get my growing post count under control.ReactReply - PH
Oct 27, 2009I've been trying to come to the meetings, but I'm afraid I'm just far too busy being addicted!

There are only 24 hours in a day. Why didn't any one tell me sooner?

I have FOUR major addictions...nicotine, caffiene, sugar and TN.
I am in the process of giving up three of them...can any one guess which addiction I plan on keeping?

Ok everyone, write a note to self, "Must remember to avoid Jen in the mornings!" ..... and if not, be extra empathetic!
I gave up coffee a good few years ago now, purely in the hope that it would help me sleep better (not sure that it did) I drink 10 cups of tea a day instead, :) 2 x spoons of sugar x 10 = 20 spoons a day x 7 = 140 a week !!!!!! ....... Oooops! ....... is that bad, it is isn't it! ...... but why? I've been doing it for years, and I'm only now, just beginning to put on a little bit of weight. Why IS sugar so bad? I justify it by saying that I don't eat anything else that's sweet, never bother with puddings and eat very few biscuits. As for nicotine, I've learned, that you need to have ya head, in a VERY good place, if you are to stand a chance of giving that up, and i don't see that happening any time soon.

Dec 7, 2009Well I have been here not quite a month and have already made it to Butt Naked. I believe that qualifies me as hooked, addicted, and by now I have the typing skills to equal an intern level secratary. ( or nowadays a ten year old)
