Woots. We can totally turn this into a food addiction thread.

I have so many food that I'm addicted to that I totally forget it's an addiction because I'm so used to it!!!

I like anything curry, Chinese curry, Malay curry, Indian curry, Thai curry, Japanese curry, Western curry (with cheese yeah because it's on top of baked rice XD).

Basically I like spicy or/and sour food with gravy/soup. So I'll usually go for curry, laksa, kimchi soup or tom yum soup and that makes it hard for me to try new kind of food because I find it slightly non-appetising to eat non-spicy food.

I am addicted to candy, there isn't a day I don't eat candy. Usually after diner and in the evening, not as much is I used to eat ( I ate untill I got sick and then ate a bit more) because it isn't good for me and I got all suger high before bed

Eating my fingernails, doing weird moves with my fingers, eating my fingers (not eating but like sucking them, in a weird way, don't ask me why. )
and cracking my fingers..
As you can see, I do love my hands..

By eating, do you mean you chew them absentmindedly, or do that and swallow them? That would be interesting.

I do, I thought everyone who bites their nails does... Where else would they go?

Part of the satisfaction is in destroying your nails... The other part is in chewing them into sand and swallowing them...

OK now it sounds weird.

Hahaha! Pensive is a vet!
I do throw them in the air after biting my nails. It relaxes me so much

I don't bite my nails all the time but I have been doing it more often because I've been so stressed. Oh my poor nails. But I will grow thee again!

Another bad habit is the stupid white chocolate Toblerone. And all things chocolate for that matter, like chocolate pretzels. Oh why oh why did my parents have to buy soo much chocolate snacks that they barely even eat themselves?

Also, I have a bad habit of procrastinating. I was supposed to be writing a small resume for 6 articles. But I've only got 2 done. As you can see, I haven't been doing a very good job of staying focused.

cigarettes

various pharmaceutical opiods

puppy dog tails

Congrats! It's good to know some people are trying to break their addictions.

I'm a light smoker, about 1 or 2 cigarettes a week. Mainly I do it to take a break from my problems, which seem to be multiplying as of now. It's relaxing in a way. Even though I hate myself for doing it, I fear it might be becoming a major addiction, because sometimes I want to break the 1 cigarette per week limit and it feels like I can't live without it.

Am I being too paranoid?

I chew/peel my lips. I know, disgusting. :/

DV is not a bad addiction.

If I need to get rid of one, that would be other forums. But but... I wouldn't have anything to do. Well actually I do, like clean the dust off certain things.

I'm addicted to diet coke. Also Splenda. Also weighing myself about 8x a day. =/

diet coke is bad for you! It would be better to just not drink soda :/

Damn Weed, Everytime I quit but I end up relapsing and going on a binge.

-Hm... Have lots of stuff that I need to do...

Nah, I'll do it later


-Ohh, some chocolate! *yum*



Yeah, that's about it

I have the usual ones that I've seen in here like chewing my nails, biting my lips and sleeping too much. But, a few years ago I had this really weird thing, in which I'd lock the door to my house because I was constantly scared that people would come in and steal stuff. Two minutes later, I'd remember and ask myself "Did I lock the door?" And I remember I did but go check anyway. And I did that every 3-5 minutes.
It also takes me way too long to write a post because I'm terrified that I'll word the damn thing wrong.

When I'm around my family or friends I whistle a hell of a lot. There is always a piece of music of some sort playing in my head (right now it's a theme from Toy Story) and I just whistle without thinking about it. I imagine it gets rather annoying!

EDIT: Found what I was humming in my head -

It's from 6:06 to 6:36:

I do bite my fingernails and lips too.

I'm also addicted to nicotine. But I vaporize pure nicotine liquid now instead of smoking. So it's not really detrimental to my health anymore.

I guess sugar too sometimes. I probably have more than I should, but it's hard when like one Sarsaparilla contains 45% of the RDI of sugar....
I'm not fat though.

You sure look fat

I'm addicted to mean remarks

I eat like every 30 minutes something, and sometimes i bite my fingernails and lips aswell. Oh, and when it's night i like to dress up like batman and fight evil!

I'm addicted to anxiety. Not kidding. My mind never rests and constantly looks for the next unresolved problem to fret over.

I've gotten used to it and now consider it an asset, keeps me sharp. Silver lining, I suppose!
