I think the potential for transpeople to abuse alcohol or drugs is very high, we think if we drink/drug enough we might forget the pain we feel for being who we are. That's my answer as someone who has been there.

Your Jewish Mama y2g says, don't get drunk anymore Nero!  :(

Because he is human and has all the normal faults that go with being human.

Nero,

I surpressed my emotions regarding my ->-bleeped-<- for many years by heavily smoking pot,  All human beings think that it is possible to supress oppression in our lives with substances, Healing is overcoming it, should you choose too and learning how to recgonise the complusion and obession with trying to "fix" your saddness.

I hope your OK, I really do.

Nero wouldn't know self-control if it fell on his head.

O, please! Surely you'd get to know it if it fell on your head! You're normally so friendly!!  :)

Your problem is one many of us have used to try and suppress who we are, Nero. And for some, our other genetic make-up seems to predispose us to addiction.

Always found my demons were very close to the surface after a few drinks. Got tired of visiting them on myself and on others. Although visiting them sober seems like it calms them somehow.

Nero has too much time on his hands (through no fault of his own).


hope you find your head soon before a hungry doggy runs off with it.   :laugh:

Because Nero is a Human Being.  :)
With Human issues.

If it happens a lot, I'd look into the possibility of being an alcoholic and teke steps accordingly.
If it doesn't, I'd just apoplogize, to whomever and dust myself off and keep going.

I'm glad you are a human being Nero, I wouldn't want you to be anything otherwise.

Thank you,

Sara
