its not that i didnt already know all of this Hell, ADHD, which makes people super prone to addiction, and that addictive personality both runs on my dads side. Depression and insomnia from moms side doesnt help. All of my aunts and uncles on my fathers side, including my father and grandad have had a run in with addiction at some point in their life. and not just smoking half a pack a day type addiction. Having to lock yourself in the house for a three day weekend and nearly killing yourself in the process to get off opioids and drinking to a point where you cannot get off the couch and need to go to rehab for two months and need to hooked up to machines due to the withdrawal type addiction
ive struggled with self-harm since i was barley thirteen and disordered eating since before i can remember? i know i have an addictive personality and i need to learn to deal with it but im scared how it will affect me later in my young adult years when substances become big among my peers. i have dreams and visions of myself in the future, a future that my self-harm, disordered eating and potential substance addictions arent a part of. but im so scared that given my genetics and how early i got myself on these addiction, im just doomed to follow in the footsteps of my family but i wont be able to come out the other side

It's like this, I'm currently an addict in recovery 5 years 11 months clean. But here's the thing if you go out with someone and have a beer and then that someone well that's enough I think I'm going to go home and go to bed and they do so. The addict which is me cannot do that I have to say oh my God that beer felt so good I have to have another one how am I going to get another one I don't have any money well I'll have to steal something so that I can get another one who can I Rob on my mom I can get in her purse when I get home and get some money out to get more beer. And that my friends story of addiction. Once that thing in my mind is triggered it's very difficult to shut off. Because it was self-medicating and an escape for a moment. But it just wasn't enough. In recovery we say one is too many and a thousand is never enough Godspeed friends

Ive always thought that an addictive personality is also someone who drops an addition (or bad habit) and picks up another one. In other words they always do everything in excess. Like my brother in law. Everyone in his family has some kind of addiction some worse then others. And my brother in law use to drink in excess and eat in excess then he gave that up and picked up smoking he gave that up and picked up gambling. Now hes doing keto I hope that doesnt become and addition.

Sounds like we're all addicted to something. Sounds like anything repetitive is an addiction. Sounds like an exercise routine is as equally addictive as a coffee or alcohol routine. Sounds like a making money habit is as addictive as a nicotine habit. Sounds like anything we ever do is an addiction. Sounds like anything out of balance is an addiction. But who decides what balance is and why should they be given authority?

Sounds strange, also because i have this personality very strong, but it can also be a very positive thing. whe you manage to controll it and you start to love and get high dopamine from good things und you do the things that are good for you with happiness and passion. But it is hard to get there and i still didnt really figured it out.

I've used hot and cold friendships with emotionally distant people, social media, and food to trigger my reward response. Life is just so dull otherwise. I've realized television is somewhere in between and maybe I should let myself indulge a little in order to keep the other behaviors at bay.

I would love to write a video essay for you to animate and produce about Lacan's concept of the inherent link between the ongoing formation of subjective identity and the cycle of desire formation which plays a big role in addiction, obsession, and compulsion.

This video cleared a lot of things up. Even though I knew I had these problems I still have struggled with addictions. Its all in my paternal side of the family as well. I have no other choice but to conquer this.

Im proudly addicted to multiple substances and behaviors because i feel good about it, everyone wants me to change but i don't really want.
I'm depressive and Suicdal, so best i can do is medicate myself.

I feel like I've done it before and I can do it again. This is very helpful because when you know what to expect you are better prepared to handle it.
