Charlie sheen is probably an n

And I know its true for a lot of 7's I've just probably been around it enough to decide very early that I was not going to go that route.

Why is Charlie Sheen an "N"? And his rants don't count. He was doing crazy shit because he was coming off of several drugs "cold turkey".

Type 9 The Peacemaker
Over-eating or under-eating due to lack of self-awareness and repressed anger. Lack of physical activity. Depressants and psychotropics, alcohol, marijuana, narcotics to deaden loneliness and anxiety.
Eh, can't relate to this one. I'm the opposite of the physical activity, I get restless just sitting around. Haven't touched alcohol in over three years and never done any drugs nor cared to. If anything I exercise so much because of my repressed anger.

Type 1 The Reformer
Excessive use of diets, vitamins, and cleansing techniques (fasts, diet pills, enemas). Under-eating for self-control: in extreme cases anorexia and bulimia. Alcohol to relieve tension.
I'm probably guilty of the first part, as I am big on supplements, but not diets or fasts and certainly not enemas. And again, haven't drank in over three years. I don't consider myself to be an under eater... I just eat a lot of low calorie stuff, since I mainly eat fruits and veggies.

can't say that I find it particularly accurate in the case of myself... it misses the motivations entirely :thinking:

I related to the 7 one quite a bit. I thought it was pretty damn accurate.

None of them quite captured the degree of self loathing that would make them appropriate for me :laugh:

I drank to forget I cared... It turned into drinking to forget that I was an alcoholic... Now I'm perfectly reminded by that as a recovering one... :doh:

I drank to escape my problems and escape life altogether.

It always seems to end with just drinking to forget about the problems caused by drinking... Fuck that :thelook:

The only reason that I don't drink now is because it makes me fat and I'm trying my damndest to lose weight.

Type 5 fits almost perfectly, along with the addiction of the 4 to socialize. Almost like an addiction to not having any other addictions.

I don't identify with any of these. I've done a lot of drugs in the past, but I don't know what I was "addicted" to. I quit them all cold turkey. I was also a smoker for years, but that's because I liked it (more of a connoisseur of various tobacco products. Not simply an addict per se). I quit that too. I guess I could identify with 5, cuz I'm addicted to "inactivity". But I don't have any problems with it. Other people do. A lot of people don't know how to relax.

4w5 fitted me. Tho the 5 stuff always freaked me out. I rather liked prolonged 1on1 discussions about friendship or personality analysis after 15 beer and 10 jägermeister :/
