Please be civil-- I was simply trying to help, and I by no means implied anything about you being similar to a cocaine addict.
I use loose parallels for creative purposes when making connections to various things, and a theoretical interest in one area does not imply similarity on anything but theoretical grounds. Injecting emotion into abstract neuroscientific hypotheses is just silly.
It's possible to withdraw from a drug one is not addicted to. It's quite possible you did withdraw from a drug you're not addicted to. I really think it's unnecessary to characterize my remarks as accusatory when they were clearly innocous. I was just trying to help, and feel very hurt. Why can't you just be nice?
> thank you for your kind information but no thanks.
> actually the 'withdrawl' effect that you seem to think i had. were actually the symptoms that i had before i've ever touched an amphetamine, or anyother drug. i AM infact dopamine depleted, that is one reason i think dopaminergenic medications work well for me, such as adderall and zyprexa.
