Gemma followed him out to the balcony. She still couldn't get over the lifestyle that Cashel lived. It was very different than anyone else that she really spent time with. There was a sense of luxury to it all that was very unique. She nodded her head at his words. "A smoke would be great." Gemma replied as it was a habit that she had picked up in university. It didn't matter how many lectures that she'd gotten as a kid, they clearly hadn't stuck. "You don't need to worry about corrupting me, the ship has already sailed." Gemma added as she didn't want for Cash to feel bad about the situation.

Cash couldn't help himself, his eyes hungrily skimming over Gemma's body to that slice of milky skin peeking out from under her shirt. Licking his lips he turned away and took a calming breath before reaching back for her, walking out hand-in-hand onto the balcony. Only dropping it to take out a cigarette and lighting it, he looked over at her. "Did you want one or a vape." He was used to having people ask for both, and there were new pens and cartridges around the place, largely from companies that wanted to photograph him using their products. "Not that I recommend it. I've tried to quit a half dozen times, but..." Cashel trailed off, not wanting to burden her with tales of his father's addiction and the drama of his band.

I guess what gets me about fatphobia is seeing someone literally recovering from addiction and gaining weight being framed as a bad thing because a substance use problem that is eating you from the inside out is preferable so long as you are twenty pounds lighter.

It has never been about people's health.

I'm 4 months sober today!

But 148 lives, I owe at least that much. And then I can go. | I should have died in that fire that night. Or one of the many nights after, trying to correct that mistake. But I'm still here.

7 Sins Legacy - generation 5 (gluttony)

Running the restaurant has become a little harder for Gulshan now Temperance can't help as much because there are two infants who need to be cared for as well. Gulshan feels like all the effort he is putting in his restaurant to get it back on track is not really working and he is still losing sleep over trying to get his restaurant star back. On top of that he is also dealing with everything that comes with being a new dad, daily chores that have to be done in and around the house, and his increasing need to have a drink or cigarette to get through the day.

Whumpee who recently got off of some addiction (drugs, caffeine, something like that), but during captivity, Whumper forces them to take the addiction back.

(Was thinking of that one story @kabie-whump wrote with Ventis. 👀)

"Treatment" for addiction that requires you to lock up, confine, coerce, or otherwise strip addicts of their autonomy, it isn't treatment. It is a revenge fantasy that prioritizes your desire for subjugation over the actual betterment of addicts.

[bearwuvimagines]

Ok so i see imagines abt f/os supporting you through addictions but,, consider: vice versa

Talking to them about it, making sure they know you’re there to help

Taking their mind off things when withdrawals/similar get bad, or even just staying with them to comfort them if they can’t be distracted

Being so, so proud of them for every day they stay sober, and if they relapse, being the first one to remind them that recovery isn’t a straight line and they can get right back up on the horse

Celebrating milestones however it’d be best for them- whether it’s a little gift, taking them out for dinner, or even just something small like making them breakfast in bed

If you’ve had an addiction as well, sharing your experiences to make them feel less alone and using what you’ve learned to help them better

Just… being there for your f/os at their best and their worst <3 im so weak for it… I have actually quite a few f/os who have struggled with this and thought I’d share some soft with the group :]

(For any kind of f/o!)

Hello, how do you think the batfam will react to a reader with bad habits? And the reader is underage. Like at one time the reader got into not the best company or just wanted to seem cool, and now she smokes, maybe reader abuses alcohol. I'm just wondering how the batfamcan handle this.

And I apologize for the English, I am writing with a translator

no but seriously he’s have you detoxing the minute he finds out about it. Having a nice drink at dinner with the family is fine but only if he’s able to supervise what you are drinking and how much. He’s be damned if he has to deal with another bruce

Bruce Wayne

doesn’t panic, even if his brain is screaming at him to trap you away forever and keep you from everything that could hurt you.

Calls in Dinah to talk to you about what is and isn’t safe for you because he will fuck it up and if he fucks you up after all of this progress that you guys have been making, duke will be the cause of his murder

Dick Grayson

oldest daughter exhaustion because he does NOT want to deal with another jason-smoking-to-fuck-with-bruce-and-becoming-addicted situation.

Tells you that if you don’t knock it off he will make you and is smiling while promising that you will not enjoy his methods

Jason Todd

panics his ass off

He yells at you for being stupid because he’s trying to quit and how did you get into that and why did you ever think it’s a smart idea and just panics in general

Cassandra Cain

thinks that it’s easily solvable, most reasonable

She starts you excerising with her every single time you get the urge so that you literally can’t move your arms anymore. Duke often joins in and eventually it becomes a form of bonding for the three of you

Duke Thomas

he gets you patches or helps wean you off of it because they’re a good sibling like that.

honestly to themself, takes the time to think about whether they want to keep you addicted and act like the good sibling by keeping you supplied increasing your dependence on them but then realizes that his brain is getting a little too demony for their taste and stops

Tim Drake

makes you listen as he lists every side effect of every substance that you are taking

threatens the crowd that you were with if you don’t start quitting immediately. Feels a cold quit is good punishment for being on substances in the first place

Damian Wayne

thinks it’s stupid and yells at you, considers violence but is restrained by duke and dick

[lifeafterpsychiatry]

Like even if you think all drug users are stupid losers and are loud and proud about it, you will still be surrounded by a lot of drug users. You will still know drug users. They just won't be telling you about it

“Can we talk?”

“No,” Sirius said, slumping further into his seat, stretching his legs. “Or yeah. I don’t know. We can talk about something, besides this.”

“Can I just say something?” Fleamont asked, taking a turn to the left. “So we can close off this chapter and go on about something else?”

The younger man shrugged.

“You can do rehab as many times as you need, in order for things to work out. Doing it once or thrice or a thousand times can be enough or not, whether you try to put in the work or not. We want to help you, in any way you need us to. You just need to be open to talk to us.”

“I don’t know why you’re trying so hard, it’s not gonna work either way.” Sirius pushed his hair out of his face, looking at him tiredly. “Why bother?”

“Because you matter to us. We’ll be there by your side, either way. And it will work, Sirius, because you’re strong-willed, I’d say almost stubborn sometimes.” Fleamont chuckled, which earned him an unimpressed, but amused snort from Sirius. “We have faith in you, you just have to have faith in yourself.”

He shrugged. “Maybe. Dunno.”

“We have chicken alfredo pasta for dinner,” Fleamont added, chuckling. “Mia made it, knowing you like them.”

Sirius grinned. “Yeah, that’s true. James home yet?”

“Of course. He’s been missing you like crazy. Knowing you’d be home today, he went all out.”

“Classic,” He tsked, letting his head fall against the headrest with a thump. “Can I tell you something?”

“Sure, kid,” Fleamont said, taking a turn. “Anything you want.”

“I’m bisexual.”

“Well, know that we love you and always will—nothing about this changes that. It takes courage to share something so personal, and I’m proud of you for trusting me. You’ll always have our full support, no matter what.”

Sirius smiled, turning up the radio. “Thanks.”

“So,” Fleamont started, whistling alone to the tune, “found someone, then?”

Sirius scoffed. “No. But I appreciate the thought behind my relationships. No, though. Probably gonna lie low for a while; that’s what I was recommended, at least.”

“You know best,” He answered, pulling into the driveway. “There we are. Welcome back home, Sirius.”

I may have been late to this fandom, I wasn't here when the band were together. But I remember watching Liam audition for TXF the first time around, I remember watching 1D get put into a band, I remember my sister's unbearable love for (what I thought at the time were) a stupid boyband. I remember her spotting Liam at our local shopping centre and her and her friends following him around, too scared to actually say hello. And then I got into this fandom, and I loved those boys so wholeheartedly. I was so proud of their accomplishments, I was so happy when Liam was telling us of his struggle and that he was sober. And I was so worried for him when he clearly wasn't doing so well. He wasn't a perfect person, and he had done things wrong. He was a victim too, a victim of the industry since he was 14 years old. He deserved a chance to be better.

I hope that he can finally be at peace.

My thoughts are with the Payne family, his son, and the boys tonight ❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹

I'm not very knowledgeable about this but is it possible to be recreational user of cocaine like BBC Sherlock is portrayed as? Cocaine is a hard drug, right? But the way the show portrays addiction is it can be turned on and off whenever one wants, like Sherlock's addiction got fixed on its own first in HLV, he is found in the drug den but is then okay afterwards until he uses it again in TLD after Mary's video, and then after he was so off the deep end in TLD, it's again a non-issue in TFP. Like something he can put away whenever he wants--I'm not sure if hard drugs work that way?

Hey Nonny!

Oh gosh, I HONESTLY have no idea, as I am also VERY uneducated in that regard, but I too am pretty sure that it's not a "turn it on and off" kind of addiction. It's portrayal in the series does trouble me, as well, and that it's... almost romanticized? I dunno. I haven't read all the original canon so I THINK it's loosely based on how it was portrayed in the original ACD canon, but AGAIN I am highly ignorant about both original canon and drug facts other than OTC Motrin and the stuff I take whenever I have dental surgery... I am NOT the person to ask about this at all!

But again, very rarely do any mainstream television portray any sort of mental health issues, disabilities, nor addictions realistically; it's one of those "suspend your disbelief for the sake of storytelling" kind of things, I think.
