Has anyone here ever had an addiction?

Probably going to get a neg storm but heyho.

Currently addicted to cigarettes, never realized how badly I was until about a week ago when I went a day without out after I took MDMA for the first time and was having a hard come down, since all the shops were closed I just bought weed and smoked it to help make the come down easier on myself. The withdrawal was terrible, I had never been through anything like it where I started to become paranoid and shaking terribly. I had to pretty much chain smoke for about 2 hours before I would stop.

A year ago I had an addiction to cocaine and even now I look back and think what a dick I was for that. It is such a **** drug, but I loved the high and because it was so short I just wanted more. Now I've discovered MDMA, it's stopped all urges I ever get for a line, but not made me want to keep trying MDMA. In all honesty, I'd like to do it again but I'm in no rush and even then I wouldn't do it for more than once a month due to the serotonin not being fully recovered to experience the high. Even now I'm kind of cutting down on cigarettes slowly as I kind of realize that there are better things out there.

Unless you've really experienced MDMA or proper addiction, you probably think I'm talking *******s. But that's the way I see it and I'm happy. I don't plan on quitting smoking, I just want to cut down is all.

I remember when I actually used to believe in a god, I used to worry about whether or not heaven had Runescape; that's how addicted I was to the game, true story haha

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL !!!! :adore:

am soory i had to....

Masturbation :yep:

I think I might be addicted to not eating. I always feel weirdly disappointed with myself if I do eat and when I eat it brings on negative thoughts.

I get the feeling I've been this way for a while but only recently have I begun to notice that I do in fact go out of my way to not eat. :frown:

It freaks me out because I never thought I'd be the sort of person that this sort of thing could happen to. I don't even know if I do have a problem or if I'm just imagining it, but since I've come home from uni I've realised how often everyone else eats, and how I find reasons not to. :s-smilie:

fighting addiction is the hardest thing.

Glad to say I've stopped.

Story of my holidays! Still trying to stop but I wouldn't say I'm addicted because I don't have all the expansion packs I keep thinking it's not the best it can be :frown:

I'm addicted to many things:
-talking to myself
-making up imaginary people
-being alone and
-obsessing about my health.

Gambling, unfortunately as well it's started recently (January time). I'm addicted to Roulette, play it online at least twice a day, go to the casino after at least 2 of my nights out a week, I don't ever deposit much, like a tenner and usually get some form of win which is lucky, but last week I blew £150 in a day online as I kept losing, then when I got to a high amount I'd just put it all back on the table. It's such a bad habit, takes me only a few wins to get overly cocky with it and blow it all.
