Addictions: From Food to Sex

What do we consider an addiction?
when do we see someone as an addict? Do i have an addiction?
these questions came through my mind while watching "The doctors" a health program on the 11 February 2010; thou the program was about youth drug abuse i couldn't stop thinking about my addictions.

"Addiction" Defining this concept in my head i came to realise that am not addicted to anything and i have to keep it this way. But wait a sec i have people i love who are addicted and we all know someone who has food - makes them feel better about themselves, sex - having multiple partner makes them feel there are in control.

Societies tackle drugs addiction the most; in my opinion FOOD AND SEX in this blog are used as examples as there lots more addictions out there and all should be given the same attention; any of us may fall under an addiction.

It all start with one little amount, at that simple moment of frustration, vulnerability and it may take a lifetime to get out of it or your life or love ones life once you become addicted; give a hand if you can.



Is all for today

  1. Maybe it is because drug addiction is the most explicity of all addications. And I think drug addication is the most discussed top because of what comes with it and the end results. The other reason would be the amount of addicts involved and at what age. Therefore, all the above points should be considered.
