*Many of us suffer from some addictions* 

Addiction: it is an habit that you can not stop by yourself, even though is harmful for you to continue.

*For me there are two types of addictions: Addictions to Substances and Non-Substance*

        
                 *Substances*

                ~ Drugs.  
                ~ Alcohol.
                ~ Nicotine.

- But many researches have begun to think that people can also be addicted to activities such as Gambling, Shopping, Sex, etc...


                *Non-Substance*

 *Such as those that affect the brain (in almost exactly the same way as a drug or alcohol dependency)

Males and Females wind up addicted to different substances and behaviors for different reasons and recover differently.

               "Obsess" & "Addict"

Are more often than not thrown around in casual conversation because they do not have the same level of severity as they once had.

*There are many addictions, that at first people don't accept, that their addictions are all consuming their lives.

We're living in a time when addiction can be said without shame... Well on the positive side, this increased acceptance may allow struggling addicts to seek help with less fear of being judged.
