What are your vices?

Do you feel guilty about them? Do you hide them? How often do you indulge?

I drink. I don’t hide that, and I don’t have a drinking problem. I drink maybe 2 or 3 nights a week, with fewer than one of those nights including more than 3 drinks. That happens maybe 3 times a month, always in social settings.

I gamble. I do it alone, so in that sense I hide it. I also don’t talk about it, so I guess I’m ashamed of it. I have considered calling the hotline before. I play video poker about once a week. Overall, I am in the red. I don’t know why I do it, and don’t know that it brings me pleasure.

I use food as a vice at times. Potato chips, ice cream or cake would be my go to items. I don’t buy these items at the store because I don’t want them around. When they are around it isn’t for long. I hide eating those things, too. Right now I’m into the Sweet Maui Onion flavored onion rings. I can eat a whole bag in two days. I haven’t bought any in almost two weeks.
