What is your guilty pleasure?

[Mushy]

Jacques Cousteau documentaries and zoning out to Bob Ross shows and Double Stuff Oreos with milk :)

 

[shatter eyes]

Watching NatGeo docs about military, mega machines, inventions, history, etc.

Watching my male hamster nod off..off offfff... and his head now rests on his big ol pair of testicles. Dont call them nuts are he might start nibbling.

Or soaking in a bubblebath for hours playing Hay Day. Baking pies, harvesting, making jams, and feeding virtual animals that are very real to me.

Those were old days before my life changing accident. Today i guess guilty pleasure is in "a turn away from disociation" and other threads that make me feel closer to human again.

These days those do not exist. Just getting by finding energy to shower and shave. Coming online here is for my sanity.

Swings, too. Definitely. I just don´t fit on most of them anymore... why, designer of swings?
Smoking... I shouldn´t do it, and I only do it once in a while. It´s a pleasure that definitely makes me feel guilty :giggle:

Talking to myself, and to people I love, but who are not actually physically there. Weird? Perhaps... that´s just how I roll :D. It gives me the feeling that they are nearby. What else...

Writing of course, about everything - writing for me is a license to say anything I want.

I would have to add smoking to my list. I love to smoke. It makes sad.

 

[Tornadic Thoughts]

It used to be all the things that was greatly lessening the quality of my life from the inside out, where I couldn't visibly notice it until it became an emergent issue (as those issues were constantly being labeled and treated as many other things they were not by the pros), albeit gradually, like meat, dairy, eggs, caffeine, gluten, alcohol, cigarettes, artificial sweeteners, fragrances, flavors, and various food-like substances.

Now that I've been taken down to the point of requiring a visit to the ER based on years of accumulating waste within and facing the possibility of needing to have organs removed, it's totally changed to being fruits, veggies, nuts, seeds, herbs, growing stuff, learning how to "veganize" all the flavors I was damn sure I couldn't live without, soaking up time with nature, learning more about how this be-ing known as me actually functions from the inside out instead of continuing to simply take someone else's word for it, sharing what has worked for me with others, and learning new wild "weeds" to forage and wild craft into either some edible deliciousness and/or medicinal benefits.

My current guilty pleasures don't weigh nearly as much as the lingering weight of the previous ones did, both internally and externally.

Old movies.

 

[Teasel]

I tend not to feel any guilt about the naff things I like, I am at one with my taste in naffness :D

 

[The Albatross]

Today it was a long BWG session - (Bitch, Whine, Groan) with my in real life best friend who is facing choice decisions and being in a wheelchair for the first time ahead of another stem cell treatment for her affected leg and chronic/rare autoimmune disease processes. She did crutches twice, but her load bearing (less effected leg) isn't bearing the load.

I did my own share of BWG & C (& complain)... but we're meeting up and I'll have several days with her at home the end of this month.

 

[BM2A]

Writing. My secret fiction or non fiction non writing. Secret because its my thing, no body else's
Venting off about my evil senior manager with my mates. Makes me feel better
Eating jelly babies

 

[Lionheart]

Dark thriller movies, psychological thrillers, horror movies. Tho I must admit the guilt is turning to disgust as the movie watching is backfiring on me and what was once entertaining is now causing me negative thoughts and nightmares.

Other than that I would have to say cookies and cream ice cream with chocolate syrup.

 

[mumstheword]

Nordic Noirs

Disney fairy tale movies

Too many food things I'm not willing to mention (I do eat pretty healthy though)

I just discovered beer, while my man was away and I had a bad PTSD agoraphobic episode, not a good habit to start at 44, but oh well, times have been very tough

Dark thriller movies, psychological thrillers, horror movies

Same here Lionheart777.

I use to watch those movies/series to feel a slight adrenaline rush. Getting almost killed and survival is a topic I used to look at a lot. Watched loads of survivor documentaries, and serial killer stuff.
