ooooh, mysterious other~
i wouldn't say that i am. well, sometimes. in periods. like, in 2003 i was constantly on here when i wasn't at uni because i didn't know what else to do. >_> then i got a job and stuff happened. then more stuff happened and i came back here last year and just bleh.

i dunno. i love coming here, even when i felt as though i would be triggered by absolutely everything, but yeah.
nope, not really an addict. i mean, come on. msnm is my addiction. that and vodka, but shhhh.
>_>
<_<
- so i turn myself inside out in hope someone will see -
- these precious things let them break their hold on me -

I agree, I'm a busaholic, and I'm not into recovery...I'm happy as I am!

psshht.. what's the point in recovery for being a "bus addict"? I'm quite happy with the whole addiction to bus..

It does not do to dwell on dreams, and forget to live - APWBD.
Music is life.. we each have our own symphony.. and we control it for the most part.. sometimes instruments drop out.. and others join in.. but when the music fades and the symphony is done.. then we have created a beautiful, personal piece. - Me.

for me, i have a hard time with anything that is
potentially mood altering. it can be healthy and
it can be unhealthy.

I'm a true BUS-aholic, in that I need my BUS time... However, it is both healthy and unhealthy for me.
BUS brings me both happiness (friends!) and unhappiness (bad time management leads to stress leads to unhappy).

I voted yes. Even when I need to take a break when I'm sick, for example - or when I'm away from home (thank goodness for Internet Cafes) - I get twitchy if can't see what's going on on Bus for a couple of days.
Good thing really, since I'm a mod - but yes, bus addiction is real

. Or maybe it's just addiction to being round great people who really care about each other - which makes it sound less scary and much more reasonable!

I'll go with that description I think. BUSoholism is a good thing after all!
...then one day I realised that the people you see in waiting rooms and car parks and on trains are really far more interesting. That they all have whole novels inside them, a fabric of scar tissues, photos and memories. They are comedies and tragedies and - more often - both at the same time.
