How old are you and what's your biggest problem right now?

Well, just to be fair, they didn’t say they were an alcoholic or anything.

I didn't either, but I should have clarified what I meant by "addiction", any habit forming behavior that your brain partakes in. I believe our society looks at "addiction" only in the extreme. If someone is doing heroin 5 days a week and living in a condemned home with other addicts, that person is an addict.

To me if someone is eating a doritos locos taco every day from taco bell because their brain is fixated on that pattern, they're addicted to taco bell. I didn't mean it as a bad way. Addiction for me is about pattern recognition.

Again, I should have used my words better. I think one of the biggest issues with our society is we only see macro-addictions.
