memtb……and I'm an addict!
As a kid I witnessed others doing it…..shooting guns seemed to be so much fun!
I thought that trying it just once couldn't hurt……I could control it, I could resist, I could control my desires - I wouldn't become one of them!
So, I did it I bought a gun…..yes, my dad was an enabler!
That one purchase started my downward spiral. That , one purchase, ignited something deep within…..something I'd never experienced before, a power I couldn't control!
That "one time" soon became two, two became three…..I had become one of them. As the years passed and the needs grew……so did the expenses. With each new experience, I craved more…..the latest, more expensive, designer models.
Now, 60+ years later my addiction has affected my sleep, my family relationships….. and requiring more and more time on the internet.
So, now I stand before you confessing my weaknesses hoping that you can understand and continue to contribute to my addiction!
