I'm tripping on cough syrup, ask me anything.

[Triple Zero]

Tripping on OTC meds is the dumbest thing ever.

At first I was hoping you were just using it for regular use and enjoying the psychoactive side-effects as a bonus.

Doesn't that shit taste horrible as well?

[BabylonHoruv]

If it shuts off you ability to do math, then how does it allow your more logical side to function?

I can process emotions in a more detached way.  Perhaps not as well, but it cuts the connections.

[BabylonHoruv]

[I'm tripping on cough syrup, ask me anything] Well, actually it's gelcaps, but same active ingredient.  DXM, not Pseudoephedrine.

I've always thought your name was a play on words, but I thought it had something to do with "Horuv" and the "V" being a roman "5", which looks kind of like an "S", making the word play pointing to some sort of Babylonian Eris/Horus hermaphrodite. I guess it makes more sense, then, that it's "Babylon, Whore Of".

So I guess my question is, since you're all fuckered up, what good is an internet girlfriend?

I really like that, the Eris Horus hermaphrodite thing.  My thought was always just Babylon whore of yes.
What good is an internet girlfriend, they allow emotional outlets that my wife does not. 

[BabylonHoruv]

ANAL?

No thank you, but I do appreciate the offer.

It was in pill form, so it didn't taste at all.  OTC meds have the advantage of precisely measured dosages.  I have tried a wide variety of intoxicants and for severing myself from my emotions DXM was the one I needed.

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

Why are you fucks ragging on BHU for dosing up on an OTC med to defer his stress reaction? At least half of you assholes are on some kind of Prozac or Xanax derivative or you drink like fucking hobos, you hypocritical dicks.

I used to do the same thing with Codeine Linctus cough syrup, but it really did taste like shit. Quite a belt in a bottle of that, but it makes you itch all over the following day.

That's more dangerous to a relationship than just fucking around IRL.  Just saying.

We used to chug a bottle of Robotussin before long forced marches, in the army.  It just sort of let you float along, and you didn't care how much your kit weighed.

Then you spent the next day all fucked up and ill.

totally this.

[AFK]

So does that mean I am in the free and clear?  Doesn't matter as it's too late and it's already happened.  All I can suggest is that you entertain some healthier ways to deal with your emotions or perhaps consider seeking some professional counseling.

Nigel, stop making sense.  This is an ideological discussion, and has precisely zero connection with facts, standards of fairness, or anything like that.  We have an ELECTION coming up, and we have to PRACTICE.

Also, you're right to often, and that makes the monkey in my head dig his heels into my limbic system, which hurts.

OK, OK... all these are valid reasons.    Carry on!

Dude, it's your life, but for what it's worth, that shit just ain't healthy. The girl I'm with right now and I go to couple's therapy. We've been together 2 years and some change now, but we almost broke up about a year ago, this time of year (well, Novemberish) because I went through a depression phase and closed off emotionally.

I recommend a "Neo" Freudian Object Relations specialist (those are the one's who don't take Freud so literally...). They usually advertise as "Psychotherapy" as opposed to counseling just therapist. Whether the issue of unavailability is yours or your wife's, It's definitely something to look at. Being married and all, I assume you've been together a more formidable chunk of time than my measly Two years and change. there must've been a reson for that, so maybe don't fuck it up?

[Kai]

I recommend sleeping on it, making love to your wife and go looking for a rebound.
