Viagraholics Anonymous - Jack's Story

Jack's Story

He turned to Viagra to overcome low self-esteem...but found himself hitting a new kind of low when he couldn't stop his habit.

My name is Jack, and I'm a Viagraholic. Although I can admit it to myself and others now, for so long I was ashamed to look my problem in the eye, let alone give it a name.

Looking back, I can see the root of my problems in my childhood and adolescence. A small boy, I was always picked on in school and became highly competetive as a result. Although I excelled in many areas, high school was sheer torment for me, especially the teasing I got in the locker room and showers after PE and sports. You see, although my penis is more than average-sized when erect, it looks quite small when flaccid. I'm a "grower," not a "shower," but there was no way my classmates could know that, and so they tormented me ruthlessly.

Through college and into young adulthood, I bore the scars of these early experiences. My self-esteem was terrible, and I always felt inadequate. Due to my shyness around women, I rarely got dates, and when I did have sex I was amazed that the girl didn't laugh me out of bed. My self-consciousness inhibited my sexual performance, which made me feel even worse. The negative voices inside my head were almost unbearable.

It was a coworker at my office who first introduced me to Viagra. I had made a passing and somewhat bitter remark about my difficulties with women, and he said he had a "magic pill" that could help. Of course, I had heard of Viagra before - it just hadn't occurred to me that I could take it. I took one of the blue pills he offered me and called up my girlfriend at the time and invited her over for dinner. Twenty minutes before she arrived, I took the pill. We never cooked dinner that night. We had sex at least 7 times (I lost count) until we finally collapsed out of sheer exhaustion. My girlfriend was amazed! I knew I had to get more of those pills.

Like many guys who buy Viagra, I ordered some online. I made up a story about having erectile dysfunction. I knew I shouldn't lie, but I couldn't help it...I needed to get those pills. When I had used them all I got anxious. I had to get more! My girlfriend was starting to complain that all I wanted to do was have sex. I started to lose my focus at work, because I was obsessing about getting more Viagra. I sat in my cubicle all day surfing online pharmacy sites, trying to find the best deals on generic Viagra. My boss caught me at it and I got a warning, but I didn't care.

Soon I found I couldn't (or wouldn't) have sex without taking Viagra first. My girlfriend got fed up with my behavior and dumped me. At this point you'd think I'd no longer have use for Viagra, but I kept taking it anyway. I couldn't stop. I took so much of it that I started missing work. I couldn't go into the office because I couldn't control my erections. When I lost my job, I just stayed home all day, taking Viagra and masturbating. With no income, I ran up my credit cards to pay for my Viagra. I was in a downward spiral with no way out.

My friend Ben finally told me about Viagraholics Anonymous. I quit taking Viagra long enough to attend my first meeting, and with their support, I've been Viagra free for one year and six months. I have a new job, a new girlfriend, and I am able to enjoy sex without Viagra for the first time in years. Viagraholics Anonymous gave me my life back.

Sorry, Cinesmoke is no longer accepting orders. Cinesmoke - Smoking Videos - that's a bummer




POOL PUFFING (Don't Get My Cigarette Wet) $35












Starring: Phi, Karina and Jo

Three beautiful girls. One pool. Lots of cigarettes. It's all Virginia Slims in this one, and the girls share two cigars. Jo, the redhead, is a pro smoker, but Phi and Karina not so. Karina (or "Katrina", as I like to call her in the video) hardly inhales, and her smoking is awkward. But Phi, yes let's talk about Phi, the asian girl, was my favorite, she normally only smokes socially, and started out lightly smoking in this video but by the end of it she was smoking like a regular. I'd turn the camera off at the end of a take and she'd keep smoking. She sits there with her cigarette and says to me "I'm getting used to these things." I'm like great why don't you say that on camera. But whatever.

Yes, I brought a tripod to the shoot. In fact, in a number of shots, you can see it in the background.

Actually, regarding the use of handheld camera, someone ought to thank me, I was walking around in four feet of water with a $5500 DVCam camera on my shoulder to get nice shots. The lengths I go to...

Except for the music, and the fact it looks nicer, this is kind of old school Cinesmoke in style, it's outdoors, handheld camera, using existing light. The first 24 min take place in the pool and is accompanied by music rather than live audio, after that we go to live audio as the girls relax on the patio having strawberries and cigarettes, and then they all enjoy a nice slice of Cinesmoke cake. You can't get it at your local bakery. A Cinesmoke cake has to have a nice design on it, and then beautiful girls have to light their cigarettes from it, and then they have to replace the candles with cigarettes, one cigarette per slice. That's how you get a Cinesmoke cake.

Then the girls head to the hottub to smoke some more and finish it all off by popping some balloons. No, I'm not catering to balloon people, the balloons were there so we did it for fun, Phi especially seemed to enjoy that.

I left in a couple awkward camera moves on the patio because they are accompanied by interesting comments from the girls. Enjoy the cinema verite feel, another trait of old school Cinesmoke videos. I actually like it quite a bit and it has inspired me creatively for future videos.

Running time: 38 min
