Skiing: A wonderful addiction.

[7-11_Slurpee]

This past week in my health class we have been learning about drug addiction. The whole time i couldn't help but to relate everything to skiing.

Here were some of the symptoms (along with what i was pondering in class):

Loss of interest in other things such as relationships and friends - During ski season my friends pretty much just dont even know i exist, and me and my girlfriend split up, cuz im always skiing.

Depression - it sets in every time i leave the slope.

Withdrawl - all summer i dont know what to do with myself.

Changing of personality - skiing makes muh happy =D

Selling items of value in order to pay for your addiction - hmm, anyone wanna buy my bed?

Those are just some symptoms.

Is your addiction to skiing this intense?

yes and no.

I love skiing so much i really cant describe it, but that is no reason to stop having a "social life". I ski my my friends all the time, it adds to the fun. We push each other to do shit and have tons of fun. Find a girl that skis, marry her and your set!

hmm, you mean it brings you closer with your friends who do it and distances you from those who don't? what does that sound like?

i still have a social life, its just that my non skier friends lose track of me. I too ski with my friends. And damn, a skier wife would be amazing.

I don't lose my social life in the winter, Skiing is my social life

 

[7-11_Slurpee]

yeah, sorta what im tryin to say. and sorry to that other kid. i did actually search bar. but i thought this was a little bit different than "you know your addicted to skiing when."

 

[babujib]

i lose contact with most of the people who i dont ski with. my friends at school (none of which are skiers) get pissed because i never do anything during the weekend but ski.

 

[pussymoneyweed]

yeah due to skiing, in the past year i have almost completely switched groups of friends i don't connect with many anymore

 

[swanton]

Yeah. I don't see my non skier friends much in the winter. I'm always at the hill...
