Definition of Addiction

Addiction can be simply described as a compulsive or obsessive relationship to a substance or behavior.  If you feel a "need" for something all the time or at specific times, you may be an addict.  This could be a chemical (like drugs, alcohol, or tobacco), another substance (like food or even water), or a behavior (like viewing pictures). 

Addiction Symptoms


It's pretty easy to spot the symptoms of addiction by asking yourself some specific questions:  Do I think a lot about the subject (substance or behavior)?  Do I frequently use the subject?  Do I hide my use of the subject from people I care about?  Do I lie to myself or others about my use of the subject?  Do I suspect the subject is becoming a problem for me?  Are there specific times or circumstances that seem to trigger my use of the subject?  Am I doing subject more often than before?  Am I doing more of the subject than before?  Am I sacrificing people or things I value to do subject?  If you said yes to any of these questions, you may have an addiction.
