Рет қаралды 140,651
3 жыл бұрынAddiction is a serious problem that can affect every area of your life. While many people associate addiction with mental health issues, impulsivity, and getting involved with the wrong crowd, it can also come down to having an addictive personality. Simply put, some people are more prone to addictive tendencies than others. To explore more about addiction and certain tendencies, in this video, we’ll be taking a look at some of the signs of an addictive personality.

So many people are hard on themselves for their addictions, but it’s helpful to understand that some of these factors/personality traits are passed down and not necessarily your fault. Self improvement begins with self awareness.

This is true beyond addiction. I was raised by a covert narcissist and learned more than a few Toxic ways of dealing with people and the world around me. It was with a mix of introspection, having Mother's narcissism pointed out to me in a way that I could not unsee, and then learning a new set of skills to replace the ones I grew up with (DBT in my case,) that I was finally overcoming what my childhood had taught me. Introspection is the real starting point of the change. How we get there and how hard it is to do so, is up to us. The more we try and assert control over the world around us, the more difficult introspection and change is.

This is probably the best video you could’ve posted recently. I have court tomorrow due to my alcoholism. With help, I know I can do this. I can stay sober. Despite what anybody says. It’s been almost 2 weeks now without a single drop of alcohol. Let’s just say, I feel more like myself now than I have in the past year. It actually helps your self esteem quite a bit if you sit and think about the reason to why you do things. Of course it’s upsetting but, that’s also life. Without sadness, we wouldn’t know joy.

I'm addicted to lots of things. My advice is to replace your negative addictions with positive one's. It seems to work for me. It's weird because all your friends will think your so eclectic and into so much. Little do they know all your doing in transferring the negative energy into productive things. I lapse back occasionally, but not as much as I used to. Good luck.

And when it comes to me I've been "clean" for almost 4 years from my weird soda addiction 🙄 and I've been smoke free for almost 3 years. Now I'm a vape addict instead, with low strength nicotine e-juices (so much better than smoking FYI). I also have a really unhealthy relationship to sugary things like chocolate and cookies.. I shall also add that I'm suffering with depression, anxiety, ADHD and OCD. I really hit the golden ticket in the lottery of life... 🙄😩

I've always wondered why I tend to get addicted/obsessed with certain things. It started when I was in middle school when I was obsessed with a fictional character, dancing, then food, then my phone, maladaptive daydreaming, then tarot, and even now a current crush. There's more things I've had addictions to, but I rather not list them since they're kind of embarrassing and I'm not even sure if they're addictions. At the moment it's kind of awkward writing this, since it's something that I never talk about. Thankfully I haven't gone to alcohol nor drugs. I just really wish I knew why I tend to be like this and how to solve it. Am only aware that my life hasn't been the very best, (not the very worst either though), for quite a while. Currently am turning towards certain addictions instead of trying to pass my classes this semester. Am taking medication and am still waiting for a call back from a therapist to see if my insurance is eligible. In the meantime, have been very depressed and anxious. Have tried to go outside and do other stuff to calm me down, but still struggle to do work unfortunately. As you can see from this long paragraph, it can be very overwhelming. Even tend to question if I'm exaggerating or not. Really hope these issues heal. Thankfully this video has helped me understand a bit more. I'll just try to be patient, and if you made it these far, thank you for caring. Sorry if I overwhelmed you. Hope you have a good day.

This sounds like ADHD with a symptom of hyper focus. You become seemingly obsessed with whatever your interest at the moment is. These interests can last for as little as a couple weeks or up to years even. You may find yourself reading articles or watching KZfaq content related to your interest, and the people in your life may become tired of hearing you talk about it. I suffer from this also, see your doctor and see if they can help you. If you can manage a balanced life, you’ll be better off in the long run.

@@johncoleman7308 Thanks a lot for your comment. Mine was two years ago, but my therapist said that it's just part of my anxiety creating these symptoms that are similar to ADHD. NGL there's still a part of me that wonders, but guess it's just from my mental illnesses and experiences. Still have trouble accepting this (along with the possibility of this being a disability), but am working on it and definitely am better than how i was back then.

I don't understand how someone can not be an addict. Life is a sick joke thats imposed upon us without our consent. We're forced to suffer and get older and get closer to death everyday while we watch the same thing happen to everyone around us. If we aren't suffering, then the default state is boredom which is a mild form of suffering. Anything that makes us happy gets old and quickly loses its luster.

*Yep, 5/6 points describe me lol. I love to gamble (lottery & casino) and although my drinking is not super frequent, when I do drink, I go hard. Other than that, I need a hobby to take up my time otherwise I feel a little worthless and bored. A goal is motivating and allows me to "get lost in it". Typing this to see if there's any others who feel the same way or at least close to it. I wouldn't consider myself addicted to any one vice, but rather addicted to the feeling of needing excitement or some sort of unique experience in order to feel whole. I also however have recently gotten into the art of self-discipline. Quit sugar, coffee, and fast food. Already feeling a lot better. I suppose the secret to enjoying life if you happen to have an addictive personality is to utilize this personality to eliminate bad habits. You can become addicted to being healthy and cutting out the unnecessary, which is what I believe will propel me immensely in the end of all things*

I'm impulsive and I know I get addicted to things really easy such as a game. Once I enjoy it, I don't stop playing and play continuously until it gets boring and repetitive or until I finish all the levels of the game, then ultimately I delete it after like 3-4 days and have withdrawal symptoms whenever I see a KZfaq video or something related to it for the next 3-4 days and then it clears up. I don't open the plays store app as I feel some kind of fog in ky brain whenever I see games on the front page and it inhibits my thinking

For the same reason, My friends at University keep asking me to try cigarette and alcohol once but I always refuse it, because I know where I can end-up, I'm really impulsive about food as well..if I like a certain kind of food I order it in huge quantities and eat until I can't eat any more. Food Addiction is fine as I eat from outside only few times and also my this impulsiveness is limited to once in two weeks which is okay and doesn't really affect me much. But the alcohol and cigarette addiction could be life threatening to me so I don't even think about it, if I do..I go and over-eat

I have a lot of general symptoms of an addictive personality. This is coming from someone with a father whose alcohol addiction was so bad that he now has permanent brain damage and has to stay in a nursing home even though he’s only in his 60s. It’s a part of why I avoid drinking too much because I know if I get too interested in it it could potentially be problematic. And it’s why I just never got into drugs or anything like that. But I do seem to have a hard time controlling how much fast food I eat. Luckily I could probably be a lot worse, but it can be so hard to control my diet. I have to force myself not to eat crap more than once a week. It may also tie in with why I seem to ignore risks and am generally an impulsive person. Pretty much my whole family all have addictive personalities so it would probably explain a lot.

I’ve always thought that an addictive personality is also someone who drops an addition (or bad habit) and picks up another one. In other words they always do everything in excess. Like my brother in law. Everyone in his family has some kind of addiction some worse then others. And my brother in law use to drink in excess and eat in excess then he gave that up and picked up smoking he gave that up and picked up gambling. Now he’s doing keto I hope that doesn’t become and addition.

I definitely get a bit addicted, but I do practice a few techniques to maintain control. The biggest is taking the occasional week off of certain things. Sometimes they start without me realizing, but if I realize, I continue for the full week. Interesting thing I've noticed is that the first few days are difficult if I know I'm doing it, but gets easier as it goes on. I don't think I've gotten addicted to a harmful degree, but it is important to maintain some control.

@Keks Dose True. But better to be able to stop for a while than to not be able to at all. I also try to keep an eye on making sure it doesn't put anything important (such as the lives of the animals I help care for) at risk, including keeping track of my behavior with those who I'm close with. That is what feels more important for me, but I know that isn't universal. Fortunately, at least I think so, I'm not using any drugs (including alcohol) unless it's for medical reasons.

@Keks Dose True. Timing a break is also an aspect, especially if I don't want to. 2 weeks before an exam, no starting a new game and no gameing at all the week leading to an exam. Working on a big assignment, no streaming videos until after it is done and I'm happy with it. Feeling particularly ill, no starting a new game, book orseries, since being sick really takes away from the enjoyment. Admittedly, aside from a vacation, there's nothing I can safely do about being a catholic. I've been addicted to cats most of my life. What do you mean "that's not what that means?" It's not my fault if you don't notice the homograph.

Lol where I live everybody smokes. (Except my mother, but she was pregnant most of my life,& kids under 12 year old). My family, my boyfriend, all of my friends... It's normal, I don't see it as a huge problem (just a light-medium problem I guess) I know that it's not in America, because on KZfaq they are always like: WTF SMOKING THAT'S LIKE SOO BAD! DON'T DIE I LOVE YOU Which is really dramatic to me hahaha But they do other unhealthy things, like super big fastfood menu's and taking the car everyday, when they just could cycle and be there in an hour lolll

Or maybe tomorrow. Can’t wait for my next Slurpee. Funny how there is a donut commercial after the video. Got a love a good donut too!! Hey Psych2Go, I love your channel!! 💕

Talking about that slow creep where an addict needs more risk and intensity to compensate for a depreciating dopamine rush made me think about some things my dad told me. (He was a recovering addict and a rehab councilor, for context.) Prior to becoming a councilor, he quit drug use but tried to just drink less. When he kept getting drunk, he quit drinking only to become addicted to food. He then began to quit eating what he referred to as "trigger foods" until he soon became addicted to gaming. My mom once recalled a moment where he turned to her and said "I think I know my problem; I'm addicted to MORE." My dad was an intense person and things were often dialed up to 10 with him. Addictions came naturally to him because it took so much to move him. Someone who's having a bad day might only need a chocolate or two to lighten their mood. Someone who's heart is on fire and who's mind is racing like a bullet train off the rails... it might take a little more. That's what happened to my dad. Nothing was ever enough and that hungry beast inside him just couldn't be sated.

If the 12-step "questions" are anything to go by, addiction is differentiated from habit by what one gives up to serve the habit. Watching KZfaq instead of TV is not an addiction. Watching KZfaq instead of cuddling your S.O., cleaning the kitchen, or sleeping enough to not be a zombie in the A.M., is an addiction.

Honestly have an addiction problem where I'm always on the phone 24/7 (and other devices too). Everytime I was thinking about cleaning my room or taking out the trash, I'm still on the phone and letting time pass by, even when I had my alarms on and thinking, "Nah I'll finish the video and I'll go do it" ... And ended up watching 10+ videos later.

Is there also something like the Anti-Addictive personality? Like... you have someone in your family who had to deal with an addiction and now you a real aversion for the very thing they were addicted to (and I'm not talking about being afraid of also developing an addictive behavior in this or any other direction). Sorry if the question sounds weird but I'm curious if that is a thing...
