Playing Chess While Under The Influence of Sedatives

For those addicted to the game of chess and by the way there is no such thing as an addiction to chess as chess is a healthy means of mental thought a sign of intelligence well accepted by historians look at the cold war a time in history where people of the thinking age would show off their skills head to head namely Bobby Fisher against Boris Spassky. So draw up the checkered board with the chess pieces and find a partner or two or even thousands of chess players on line which is what I did and will continue doing. This morning I took two sedatives over the counter to combat my insomnia something I discussed recently in this blog. Well I got crushed and bruised and annihilated victory was nowhere to be seen not even close. The two caffeine pills wasn't enough to offset the sedatives. But the best thing to do is play under ones own natural powers free of any sort of drugs but for me this is not a realistic approach. But I will live never say die. I googled my other blog It Never Takes A Genius asking if that blog was rated and my answer proved a rather interesting one. The google answer was met by my own words which said that if could win just one good game I could feel so good about such a win depending on how well I felt I played with no errors or mistakes no blunders and a strategy that could not be circumvented by my opponent. If this were to happen all the bad things that happened to me in the past would be made up for and forgotten by this one good win. When I can win a good particular chess game such a great win would make up for all my bad experience including the bad chess loses to the times I failed to reach particular goals in life. Similar to an addicted gambler I want that win and such a win drives me to play on despite my chess loses. In chess there is not the money to be lost for as we know chess is not a betting game like Poker is. So learn from my mistakes it is good to find a way out of insomnia but never a time to expect to do well while taking sedatives for all it does is make you want to sleep. No rocket science is involved.
