/agree Wyvrn -- That was something I learned from that book by David Kessler.

Then I think some of that feeling of boredom is restlessness... you're really craving that old crap that hyperstimulates you. You really miss that hyper-stinumlation. It's addiction.

I'm reminded of what someone said about resenting having limits. My brother the alcoholic never could come to terms with the fact he needed to have limits when other people naturally limited themselves when it came to drinking. He thought it was very unfair. Eventually his alcoholism killed him.

I wonder if that inability to accept that sometimes we have to have limits has something to do with addiction.
