The "Void"

ive had this belief for a long time now about a "void" within everyone. i have read articles online and in magazines that touch base on something like this so i know i am not the only one out there with this thought. anyway, i feel like i have always been missing something, a piece of myself perhaps? it could be my "other half" as in a soul mate, or maybe some other greater thing such as finding my purpose in life. in any case ive noticed that other people do a lot of stupid things trying to fill this "void" such as experimenting with drugs or having premiscuise(sp) sex. i have chosen to fill my void with video games (very dorky i know) what does everyone else think about this "void" ? do you all feel like you have it as well? or maybe youve found something to fill it? i would appreciate any input, even if you think its a bunch of crap

uhm
it's kinda hard because i only started thinking about it a few seconds ago
i do feel a little empty sometimes but that's about it and there are things i'd wanna do but can't ..... so i don't really know what you're talking about .... i think if i had the feeling then i would've known

I have this feeling alot, but have several ways of dealing with it.

Sometimes I drink alot of Vodka, lol, other times I write something, maybe lyrics, maybe a poem, just something.

Captain Cynic fills my void alot. I think sometimes, I get this burst of energy I have to get rid of, and it gets confused with a void.

are you sure that's the "void" that you're filling up with vodka ?

No, I'm not positive, but it gets me by, lol.

lol
if i had a void i'd fill it up with vodka to the top too
there was a vodka drinking contest somewhere in russia - one guy died , he consumed 1.5 liters ( i hope you know how much taht is ) in 40 minutes, then got in a taxi cab and died on his way home
3 ended up in the emergency room - almost died
and all the rest came back the next day for more vodka

I don't know whther to laugh, or not about that, godddAAAMN, 1.5L?!

I once had a smoking contest and lost, but all I did was pass out, lol

yeah because there is no way in hell weed would kill you
but hard liquor can

They say that if one person smokes one pound (high THC content) in one hour, they would die. I have got to find my source for that, I'll get back to you on that.

it doesn't burn that fast ... i guess you could kill yourself with pure thc though

Ahh yes, here it is. This is from a chair member of the ICLU Drug Task Force:

"...to overdose, you would have to consume 40,000 times as much Marijuana as you needed to get stoned. In contrast, the ratio for alchohol varies between 1 to 4 and 1 to 10."
~Marijuana Myths by Paul Hager

if anyone smokes that much, ODing should be the least of their worries

Holy carp where do you get all those funky facts like that dawg?

sup boys.

interesting thought, a bit vague maybe but i do see what you mean. For example, i just had to walk home from work and wait outside for 2 hours at like mindnight because i was locked outside. Yes emotional is high at the moment because my girlfriend is overseas. And so.... i come to here, this forum i havent been here for awhile, and i fill my VOID, call it what you want a "void" if you will. I think its partially about obsession and ignorance, FOr instance i used to play video games alot aswell, ALOT --> and i went there because i was obsessed i was ignorant to everything else! it was a wonderful feeling. I dont think you can just classify all these different things like writing drinking and video games as a void. For instance i came on here because i wanted to talk things over while listening to nice music, not to let you knw how i feel but to actually write some of my emotions down to myself, yes i feel a bit better and im actually letting out some angry, and its because i want to be heard, you see, i want to be heard, so i come on here. People drink for lots of differnent reasons but i guess in the context of this discussion. they drink to escape from reality. Again void is a very vague term but a good thought none the less

DT: I have done alot of research over the years on Marijuana, so I just pulled the folder I have collected (of information) off the shelf. As far as the "Weird Facts' some one sent them to me in an e-mail.

Moby, I think that you are viewing this "VOID" thing as some kind of bad thing, we are mostly saying that it is a empty hole than needs satisfaction, IMO.
