Object of my 'Addiction'

Ok let's 'crack' it folks ;-) We all have one or more addictions, no matter how much you try to deny it. Be it coffee (looks at Rohit.T:)), books, clothes, smoking, sleeping, music, TV, movies, boys (looks at Uttsy lol!), girls (looks at Saby - no 'lol' cos it's a serious addiction of his btw), drugs, alcohol, or even the Internet (looks at everyone lolz!). But these are few of the addictions we commonly know of. Wait till you see the rest. I did my homework about addictions before writing this post and was amazed to find out that there are some bizarre addictions out there! You may never have heard of them unless you yourself are a hopeless addict of any of the Addictions in the list below:

*People (so-called co-dependency)-The most common and under-recognized of all addictions, also the most powerful and the most dangerous.
*Compulsive overeating,Food addiction

Phewww cant imagine someone being addicted to terror and violence - should offer them some Gloria Jeans coffee for a change. Being addicted to people is supposed to be dangerous 'cos apparently that's what happened in the Nicole Brown murder case (OJ Simpson trial). Now don't be so worried if you have any of the above addictions, 'cos apparently it isn't serious unless it dominates your daily life and you are powerless to stop the chaos despite many promises to do so. The article I read says "An Addiction is a strong dependence or habitual use of a substance or practice, despite the negative consequences of its use. Addictions can be formed to any activity or behaviour which allows people to escape from life and its problems and includes shopping or spending, sexual activities, gambling, food, prescribed and illegal drugs, alcohol and even other people." - which probably means that if you're a die-hard blog addict, you have some (conscious/unconscious) real-life issue that you're trying to escape from...am I right or wrong here, please enlighten me, cos I better know if I'm going mental. Ok jokes apart, what I wanted to convey to you from this post is that after reading this, if you think you have a serious and unhealthy addiction(s) that need attention, please see that you attend to it and take the next step to recover from it. But keep in mind that for it to be a serious and unhealthy addiction, it has to dominate your daily life, be negative and harmful to you and/or others, and you have to be powerless when it comes to controlling it. Also know that some people ruin their lives by serious addictions such as drugs, people, alcohol, gambling and money.

Some of the Addictions I may well be suffering (or enjoying rather) from are: music, clothes, shoes, blogs, music, blogs music and blogs. Oh did I mention blogs? I guess not. And No I don't want to go into Anti-blog-rehab 'cos FYI this is what's keeping me sane. In other words, if I went into rehab, I would have to prepare my Eulogy on the way - how boring is that. Anyways how about you, addicted to anything weird lately?
