Mobilizer Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 Everybody has an addiction. No matter how small it may be, it's still an addiction. What's one thing that you're addicted to? Â I'm addicted to browsing the web. Probably spend around five hours a day on it. I've pretty much been nerdy all my life. =P
Gameplayer Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 That's not an addiction.  I'm addicted to smoking cigarettes.  That's an addiction.  If I stop smoking for even just a few hours I get cranky, tired, fidgety, and even sometimes mean. Oh and BTW I don't have control over those reactions, it just will happen, its a physical response to the brain not getting its proper chemically induced fix.  I could pretend that I'm not effected, that's just a disguise a farce to convince others that I'm in control of my habit...The habit is in control of me. I might be able to quite sure but there are definite triggers that can cause me to stop what I'm doing and run out to buy more packs of smokes.  And that's a legal habit.  There are people that are addicted to stuff that if they stop without medical supervision they could just wind up dead.
testsubject013 Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 music I need music and video games and mods and I guess web surfingÂ
Gameplayer Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 That's either a joke post or total BS.  You have no idea of what its like to be an addict and this isn't a joking matter.  I've known people addicted to meds that were at serious risk of landing in jail and losing their license forever because some Doctor didn't wean them off of real addictive pain killers. As someone that has a minor in Science specifically in Chemistry and soon to pick up more coursework I can assure you that your psychological habit is not the same.  I do have a number of actual Diplomas and several other minor's.  I find trying to compare a acceptable habit vs as an addiction to be woefully under informed.
Erundil Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 My addiction is this:I imagine a world (usually fantasy or science fiction, sometimes normal past, like Medieval, for example). Then populate it with some imaginary people. Then come up with some story where I'd play the main role. It's not as realistic and vivid as reality, but still much more realistic than dreams.It sounds more like just a child's game than an actual addiction, until I mention that I tend to spend over 30 hours per week "in another world". Also I completely lose the sense of time when doing it. It's a bit like tripping without drugs and with much more control over what happens
Buddy Christ Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 Cigarettes, I am kind of a chain smoker when I am home from work. Â And to a certain, very dear person. All the withdrawal symptoms are there: Shaking, bad mood, loss of appetite and problems sleeping. Â Â
Corpus Vile Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 Cigarettes, currently. Previously alcohol, benzodiazepines and SSRIs (noxious garbage, by the way).

Addictions can also range from a low to high severity.  What your friend has is of course not a joking matter and I really do hope he gets better, although I wasn't kidding about become on my computer every day. I can't seem to take a break if I try. =/

Â Now it's cigarettes and energy drinks. Â Â Â Â Â
Guest Comrade DR. MAHUJ DIK Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 Coffe, i cant spend a day without it or I became nervous.
Buddy Christ Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 Coffe, i cant spend a day without it or I became nervous. Â How could I forget about coffee? If I don't get my 2 1/2 liters a day I get headaches and the shakes.
datjellyman Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 I used to be addicted to Dr Pepper. I would drink 3-5 a day and often times I wouldn't eat if I didn't have one.
roflcopter117 Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 I have a bit of a chewing tobacco addiction. Aside from that I also have a Coca Cola and an exercise addiction. Â
chevyowner Posted July 19, 2015 Posted July 19, 2015 For me it's high speed (triple digit speed in a straight line) or 80+ around most corners. Â I need to slow down, but for me 150mph is too slow now.
Foulmouth Posted July 19, 2015 Posted July 19, 2015 I'm addicted to making pointless replies to strange threads ...
bahamut2119 Posted July 19, 2015 Posted July 19, 2015 I smoke up to 2 packs a day usually closer to 1 depends on how often skyrim wants to crash and I chug 4 liters of mountain dew a day its a wonder im still alive.

germanicus Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 I'm veeery addicted to coffee, cigarettes and sex. I'm glad my girlfriend is nymphomaniac and she can fulfil my needs.
