Caffeine, tobacco, internet, books, making lists, potato sticks, bubble gum, and bitching.
When you run out of bubble gum, do you start kicking asses?
Aw it’s an anonymous poll
You should make a thread on the Dope about how to deal with your Dope addiction.
If I’d known nobody was going to admit to meth addiction I’d have made it public. I blame … um … whoever I’m using as a scapegoat this week. Barney Frank, I think.
Love, Diet Coke, sleep, opiates, cigarettes, Facebook.
I’ve never even tried meth but I’m hooked on a TV show about the stuff. Now that’s what I call addictive!
By contrast, I can take or leave “Weeds”.
Agreed. I myself would say I’m addicted to carbs. I struggle with weight and nutrition. Emotional or stress eating is something I definitely do and when I start having a feeling that needs to be squashed down I like to hide it under a bag of cookies or something from the “oops we baked too much” display.
I’m coming to see more and more that I use junk food the way my husband uses cigarettes and alcohol. I don’t use either of those. When he’s confronted by stress he’ll say “I’m gonna go smoke a cigarette,” or “I need a drink.” In the same situations I say “what’s in the pantry?”
I do also spend hours on the boards when I should be working. That might be more of a problem than I’m ready to admit.
Just World of Warcraft. I actually gave up caffiene pretty easily.
I checked SDMB, and I’m with you, olives; it’s seriously becoming a problem. Also: Teevee. Video Games. Kitties.
SDMB, internet, caffeine and knitting ( and I am not that good of a knitter and really quite slow. But I luvs me knitting mags. It’s pron.)
Is HUMOR addictive?
Discuss.
Caffeine, in the form of soda.
I was horribly addicted to canned pears in the last month of my pregnancy. I would lie cheat and steal (not from the store, but money from my husband) to get some. I would wake up at night and if there wasn’t any I would drive myself 30 blocks to an all night store to get some. I was always plotting my next can.
Now, its something I sometimes buy, my son seems to like them but I can’t actually remember the last time I had them. Fresh pears are ok, but never have been my fruit of choice.
Compared to that I am not that addicted to caffine. I guess physically because of withdrawl headaches, but there is no psychological component.
