The moment I saw the title of the thread the first thought to come to my mind was RUNESCAPE :colondollar: I think we've all played a fair bit of it in our time. Still a great game but can't be played during GCSE's (He says whilst he is botting at the Range Guild and revising Biology)

Not from addiction or recreational use, but I have ODed on opiates. Combination of too much morphine, tramadol and your other standard painkillers to help kill the pain of a nasty burn accident. :smile:
Cigarettes and caffeine.
If you're counting it as an addiction, Runescape too xD Back in Year 8.. dear Lord. I was also obsessed with exercise and calorie counting a few years ago, but that passed as just a phase.

I deliberately stay away from things containing codeine etc. as I'd rather not even risk it.. I know me, and I'd probably get addicted.

World of Warcraft... I spent minutes equalling over 1 1/2 years worth of actual time on that game.

I was addicted to the Sims like no mans business. Spent 12 hours a day on it easily creating my dream families with pets, cars etc. Don't know what made me stop 2bh - I think my mum hid them from me in the end.

Opiate painkillers.
Tough times.

edit: caffeine too, not as bad as opiates though

I have a weird, but of course minor, addiction to information and wanting to know what's going on. Sounds weird but I swear I check things like the news, sports news, my email and even TSR for threads relating to current events far more than anyone else I know. I check most newspaper websites and even read a lot of the comments sections. The power went off in our flat for a few hours earlier this week and I felt so closed off from the world.

Need to get the **** outside!!

EDIT: Now I think about it I notice it gets a lot worse during exam time so probably just a procrastination tool that develops into a bad habit.

Cigarettes. The amount of money wasted over those 4/5 years thinking back is stupid, glad that they are no longer a part of my life.
I am addicted to the following:
Alcohol (I drink 24/7).
Cigarettes (can't go 30 minutes without it).
Sex (can't go a day without it).

Some could also say I have a mild addiction to Cocaine, Gambling and just generally spending money like water :lol:

Self harm. 5 years. It's been a good year or two since I was in the whole "cut multiple times on a daily basis" mode, but the last time I actually cut at all was maybe two or three weeks ago. It's a long struggle, but I'm getting there :smile:


Same with me, i did it for 7 years, and i havnt since about october time. Do you ever find when you start again theyre a lot worse (deeper, more scaring etc...)?
