Do I need an intervention? Waking up on the weekends early and thinking of where to hunt and where to go. Packing the car and heading out…. What have I become? Hair undone, dirt under my nails, dirt on my clothes…. but come Monday I am pristine. Then I repeat this behavior the following weekend. Do I need help? 

You will know its bad when you detect before and after work. I used to get up at 5 am in the morning and hunt for an hour by my work then give myself a whores bath and sit in my cube all day researching places lol. And it doesnt help that i dream of detecting all week

I believe that an intervention is called for. Send ALL of your metal detecting equipment and good finds to me and I will hold them until you are well. When you are well, you will no longer have the desire to metal detect so I will just keep everything. Your problem solved! Of coarse, my problem..........

Everytime I see this post (daily since posted)... I think to myself... "and he's asking a bunch of ADDICTS if an intervention is needed?"

LOL

It looks like a Bounty Hunter to me (WTH?). I think if I was crazy enough to get a tattoo of a metal detectorist he would have to be carrying a Tesoro Diablo or Conquistador! Lol
