I read in The Times that the medication I am on, could make me addicted to Food, Gambling or Sex.

It is a fact that some people on tthe same medication have gambled their life savings away, And I know, never having gambled before I will more readily splash out now.

I'm still waiting to run away with the milkman, (a bit unfortunate because we use the Supermarket).

But food I crave, chocolate especially.

Being addicted to sex isn't bad at all, and food cos hopefully you can have enough sex to burn off the extra calories!! Sorted, fun times and lots of nice food.

Just avoid casinos and gambling websites, should be fine. :hihi:

You make it sound so good, almost worth taking the tabbies.

Do you mean by this that you get to chose one of these three things to be addicted to?

The fact that you are already aware of the problems the Meds could cause will surely act as the warning to you, so that any changes in your behaviour are noticed fairly quickly by either you or those close to you.

Should you feel the need to go on a gambling spree just give me a ring and I will get the milkman to pop around and see if he can help you to kill two birds with one stone ;) Now get back to cooking the Dinner :D

Very apt, I almost feel grateful for the meds.

Ken's the cook of the family I'm just there for decoration.

Because Nick---the medication affect the part of the brain to do with pleasure.

So you could get addicted to anything that gives you pleasure ?

Well these are the 3 things mentioned,

I don't know about gambling but the other 2 are basic built in instincts, which substain and perpetuate life.
I suppose the pleasure is added so we ontinue the species .

I could only pop my two-penneth in here if the question was 'How do you cope'! :D

Good luck Hazel, just don't try all three at once. A lot of the big casinos ask you to leave if you get chocolate body paint on the roulette wheel! ;) :D

Hazel, are they these?

"Perfect Excuse Tablets

Please read this leaflet carefully:

Only take these tablets under supervision... (of your parole officer)

Do not take if pregnant, breast feeding, George Best.
Do not operate machinery (roulette wheel).
May cause drowsiness and hunger. Do not take if you are currently on Slimfast or Atkins.

Do not exceed the stated dose unless advised to by your bank manager, pimp, concierge."

If so, I think we are on the same stuff
