yeah I suppose all addictions will have a common thread in there somewhere.

I've just remembered the term 'manic depression', I don't know if that's connected to bipolar?... don't seem to hear it mentioned much these days.

in the past I had long periods of depression where I was signed off work for months at a time, but the depression didn't really fluctuate, it wasn't an 'up and down' kind of thing.... none of the various antidepressants I was prescribed did a thing to lift it either.

"Biohazard" (1985)
A military experiment gone wrong brings an inter-dimensional alien creature to Earth, which promptly goes on a killing spree. A studly government agent and a large-breasted psychic lady (one-time "Star Trek" siren Angelique Pettyjohn) must put a stop to it. Yes, that's the whole plot.
Another Z-grade sci-fi/horror flick from no-budget auteur Fred Olen Ray, full of his trademark cheap FX, plentiful gore, and a healthy amount of T&A. Watchable if you've got a few beers in you.
Fun fact: the actor in the alien suit is Ray's then-8-year-old son Chris!

I'm only familiar, I believe, with his work on the movie Freaked.

I'm not sure I've seen other works.

RIP though.

Quote from: zombie no.one on August 26, 2026, 02:16:00 PMI created a blog shortly after I joined this place... designed a banner and other stuff for it, and then made zero posts ever! it stayed up till a couple of years ago but now seems to have been deleted (not by me).

Never occurred to me to write about giving up smoking and drinking... not sure I'd have much new insight to offer... there's a Bill Hicks sketch where he talks about the guy who wrote a book about jogging: "I mean, what exactly do you write about jogging? Left foot, right foot.... go home shower!"... I'd feel a bit like that!

I do remember entire days would go by where all I could think about was either wanting a cigarette, or just thinking about the fact I was giving up.  saw how much it dominated my life.

apparently a bunch of tobacco execs once testified under oath that nicotine was not addictive. so you're battling an entire industry that wants you hooked... or at least DID. smoking now seems socially and culturally taboo here. it's all vapes now (same difference?)
I've never smoked cigarettes, but everyone I know who has...has had an incredibly hard time quitting. I had a hard time quitting other substances so I guess I see that aspect.
