I'm just wondering if anyone has other things they are addicted to....I think I have an "addictive" personality that makes it easy for me to get drawn into things more than I should. (Other than MFP of course) My current addictions are Frontierville and Farmviile. It seems like anything on the computer is dangerous for me. I seriously tried to go cold turkey but I was drawn back in again. ARGGGGHHHHH Any others out there???

    YES! As a matter of fact, I recently posted a thread about switching my food addictions. I went from a terrible fear of food and the reactions I had to it...to being addicted to planning healthy meals, reading recipes and even taking and looking at pictures of healthy foods. It's not the eating I get pleasure out of. It's the planning and creating.

    I can never seem to do anything halfway. If I play a video game, I need to play it until the end. I can't think about anything else until I do.

    I have a serious addiction to the TV show "Big Brother." It just started so I'm curious to see how I handle both this and my MFP/new health addictions. :tongue:

    Chapstick! I have at least 4 tubes available at ALL times!

    Went out the other night and forgot to put one in my purse and had to stop and buy one!
