I don’t know how serious this problem is… but I say listen to something really fucking LOUD to drown out your thoughts. Some heavy metal, hardcore, and punk will cure your ails.
Or maybe you should read a book or something, or watch TV, or excersize or just… well- do something. Anything, seriously. Doing things helps things get offa your mind.
EDIT: And maybe EOH (the guy) could help you…
I usually listen to music, or watch TV, or go on the RPGClassics boards
In all honesty, when I feel like shit, I listen to one song over and over again - Metallica’s “Fade to Black”. It somehow encomapssess all of my shitty feelings into one great song.
If it’s drug related, I could help, but I’m not sure what its related too. As far as I know, I haven’t done too many things that you haven’t, but if you need a word, I would assume that I am probably the person you would want to talk too, outside sin who isn’t here.
Speaking from expierence, when you do a drug that worries you, you need to talk to someone who has done the drug a few times, then they can usually set you straight as far as what is normal and what isn’t. That website you showed me one time about exstacy and what not was a great resource, but I’m sure you’ve checked that out as well.
So pm me, and if you truely think it’s extremely important, then chuck me a phone number, I get good long distance rates, and we can have a chat.
Go to a rehab clinic.
That’s just stupid. Be quiet ren.

I hate to tell you, but that is a really stupid piece of advice there.
I’m generally against supressing thoughts and memories, but if it helps any: Do something that requires you to think. That can be reading, listening to music ( not all kinds of music, mind you ), or writing. Anything like that, really.

Useful for a last resort, a VERY last resort

Well, it’s in these clinics that you will find specialized professionals who will put the guy to do some healthy activities that’ll drive his mind away from drugs. I think getting professional help is the best advice that could be given. I’d like to see some elaboration on why it’d be stupid.
Here’s something that would take anything off my mind: Play DW7 straight until you competeley finish it :hahaha; .
Okay, that may be near impossible but I have to say playing any game for a couple of hours goes with the “do something the makes you think” category. I do this whenever I’m stressed or bummed out so it may help you.
Go for a really challenging bike ride. It usually helps a lot. As Sorc said, music is also good.

Because rehab clinics are made for people to quit drugs, not to get things off of their minds. Since he has already established to me that he isn’t setting foot near drugs (at least for a very, very long time), then going to a rehab clinic is utterly useless.
Enough elaboration?
I don’t know if he took drugs or not, and I hope he didn’t, but I know a lot of people who swore they would never drink/take drugs/smoke ever again and were doing all that in less than one week after the swearing. And not only those who have reached overdose levels go there, some people who were never big into drugs go to those places

and also to learn more stuff about what they’re doing.
Lets say I know Gila better than you. If Gila EVER said something like “I’m not going to do drugs,” and he did, it would surprise the fuck out of me. Not only that, I’d know he is serious. He is not a person who just says things.
Well, just don’t think. Or do what Sorc and the other’s suggested. Don’t spend a whole day tring to remember the past and thinking about memories… trust me, it’s painful… :too bad;
Why was it a stupid suggestion?
-
It’s like shooting a fly with a cannon - it’s vast overkill. He wanted more of an explanation than a solution to whatever “problem” he had.
-
Rehab clinics cost money.
-
Rehab Clinics are for people with addiction problems - which Gila does not have.
He also said that it was drug related:
