Televisión addiction.

Television addiction.

Television addiction is a proposed addiction model associated with maladaptive or compulsive behavior associated with watching television programming. The most recent medical review on this model concluded that pathological television watching behavior may constitute a true behavioral addiction, but indicated that much more research on this topic is needed to demonstrate this. The compulsion can be extremely difficult to control in many cases. The television addiction model has parallels to other forms of behavioral addiction, such as addiction to drugs or gambling, which are also forms of compulsive behavior.

Comments.

As all us knows almost all addiction are dangerous for our health, even more when you become extremely compulsive and you do not accept the reality.

For example. In my case I could not do anything before watching a TV program called Timon and Pumba, even to do my homework from high school, so my parents advised me strongly but I didn’t understand. At the end of the year I had serious grades problems and also eyes problems for reading. 

Internet addiction

Internet addiction can cause depression, loneliness and anxiety.

This picture make me to remember  when l traveled to my city years ago , before the internet fever. In these time people spoke ,sharing and made a long relationships when took a bus, but now people look like a zombies and they are focused only in theirs phone, and all so they can't appreciate the real world less the super natural.

I image to Jesus coming back...!

i wish i were in the Beach.

A different and complicated wish.

It is so crazy the different ways and meanings we can use with the verb wish. Some of the wish statements can be confusing sometimes but i would describe some of them like a desire that you wish to turn back time to make it a reality... But unfortunely you just can't.

chocolate addiction

Identify the symptoms. Not all researchers in the field of psychology perceive chocolate addiction as a "true addiction",^[1]. However, some researchers believe that the release of endorphins brought about by consuming chocolate creates a physical dependency to obtain that mood high again and again, thereby suggesting it is possible to be addicted to chocolate.^[2] Any way you look at it, your addiction to chocolate is definitely real and very hard to resist if you have become accustomed to consuming it. If you have uncontrollable cravings for chocolate, these may be some of the signs:

• You feel "conditioned" to need it at certain times of the day (the post-lunch afternoon dip being one good example).
• You salivate more in the presence of chocolate, or at the thought of it.
• You feel negative or anxious without it, and feel better for having it.^[3]

understanding addiction to cigarettes

Why quitting is so hard

Remember, smoking is not simply a bad habit—it’s an addiction. The drug inside tobacco that people are addicted to is called nicotine. Just like with other addictions, people who are addicted to cigarettes have a compulsive need to smoke—their body craves regular doses of nicotine.

When someone smokes, it will often lead to changes in their brain and nervous system. These are real physical differences! The brain will now be dependent on the nicotine and has ‘rewired’ itself. Because of this physical dependency, if a person stops smoking for a period of time they will start experiencing symptoms of withdrawal. This is the brain and body adjusting to no longer having nicotine in the system.
