I see the addiction advice thread, and think.... "How do I get addicted to something?"

Cause genuinely, I've had no cravings or *anything* to spur on an addiction at all.... is there something wrong with me?

I don't think it works that way.
You don't get craving before you addicted to something. The addiction comes first after a certain amount of use for various other reasons, like drugs tend to be for recreational use.

After varying times, depending on the substance (using a drug as an example), your body or mind grows dependancies which is your addiction.

You also get addictive personality types, but let's not get into that, since it doesn't apply to you :)
 

Well, if you look at my join date, August 2003 my Posts Per Day is 5.35

Compare that to The_Librarian who is top of the post count, Posts Per Day is 31.24

If you'd like me to prove a point I'll see you guys in about 2 months ye?

Seriously, you can take away everything I use every day and I won't be phased or have withdrawal symptoms...

Oh and both you and Veroland are on about 3.8/3.9 posts per day, not far behind me
 
check The_Pumpkin_king's stats if you wanna see addicted....

lol... don't get so defensive

But you see, it depends on what gets taken away.

Certain things are not called 'addictive substances' for nothing. ;)

That like comparing a Heroin Addict to a weed smoker...You're still probably addicted.

Try cocaine for a while and then try to stop - That's when you realize you're addicted!

I've done quite a bit of cocaine, didn't grab me. Tried heroine once, yikes, definitely can understand the temptation to want to do more just for the feel, which would then obviously lead to the physical addiction after.

I was just maybe lucky with the cocaine, i knew of people who got hooked badly. Different strokes for different folks can get you hooked.
 
I've also done my fair share of cocaine, x, etc. Didn't grab me either. I haven't used any drugs in forever. Never get cravings. Booze on the other hand is a different story.

I guess to me it's about having an outlet, just to unwind after a hard day. It's something different to everyone.

Consider yourself blessed....You only get addicted to something addictive and only after you use/abuse said addictive substances....
 
Inject yourself with heroin - then come back - your question will be answered.
