I don’t think anyone is completely free of addiction.

I would go so far as saying I have a predisposal to addiction that can migrate from one thing to another. Since Fluther, it’s full-blown.

Define addiction. Technically I’m pretty sure you could argue we’re all addicted to water, oxygen, etc.

I think it’s human nature. The ego forces you to identify with whatever you would describe as ‘yours’ or ‘mine’. Of course, the degree varies but I think it’s perfectly reasonable to day that we all have our addictions.
But I’m not telling you mine…

I define addiction as something that is in fact bad for you but you keep doing it anyway -hoping for a diferent outcome -
