I know from personal experience exactly what you mean. With me, alcohol. To me it is (was?) like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde...at the moment it's great, then the bottom falls out and you hate it with everything in you. Repeat ad infinitum.

How'd you kick? I found my miracle in the rooms of Narcotics Anonymous.

The wierd thing was, I never ONCE had a good time on cocaine. But back I would go, time and time again, even when I knew it could cost me a marriage and many jobs.

I read recently that ADD sufferers are 50% more likely to become addicted to cocaine. I have a hard-core case of ADD. It makes sense I would be in that 50% enhanced-risk group.
