Addicted To Us
Your PC's on, but you're not home
Your mind is not your own Your keyboard rattles, your mouse shakes Another post is what it takes You can't read, can only write There's no doubt, you're uptight Your body's fixed, you can't leave Another post is all you need Whoa, you like to think that you're immune to the stuff, oh yeah It's closer to the truth to say you can't get enough You know you're gonna have to face it, you're addicted to us You see the signs, but you don't heed You're postin' at, a different speed Your heart beats, in double time Another post, and you'll be fine a one track mind You can't be saved The Cellar is all you crave If there's a clone left for you You don't mind if you do Whoa, you like to think that you're immune to the stuff, oh yeah It's closer to the truth to say you can't get enough You know you're gonna have to face it, you're addicted to us Might as well face it, you're addicted to us ......Might as well face it, you're addicted to us ............Might as well face it, you're addicted to us ...

I have the opposite of an addictive personality. My instinct is to compulsively throw things out if I don't use it frequently, and deny myself indulgence items because I don't really need them. I saw an episode of Law & Order once that claimed this behavior is still a subset of OCD, same-coin-different-side to being a hoarder. Many times I've regretted getting rid of things that I later needed, nevermind how mad Mr. Clod gets when I throw out something that belonged to him, so I've worked pretty hard to temper the behavior.

I'm a bit that way with clutter around the house. I'll chuck all sorts of stuff out, then wish I hadn't later.
I once read a book on fung shui that said getting rid of clutter is good for the mind, so that's my story and I'm sticking to it. That's not why I do it. It just gave me a good reason on how to explain why I do what I do. (no one around here is buying it though)

There is nothing about Reality I like. I prefer my altered sense of reality to anything I've experienced in my life straight. The only reason I don't do all I want of anything, is that it will kill me. I know that if I stop keeping myself in check, Ima die. And, besides, who's getting hurt? Me. Nobody else. I don't have, nor do I want, a wife and/or kids. If I check out doing what I do, nobody's gonna be boo-hooing, nobody's left w/out an income, nobody has to wonder who's going to take care of them after I'm gone, nobody has to pay for a funeral or a grave.
If you actively enjoy whatever it is you do, and you have no desire whatsoever to stop for any reason, are you an addict?

I get addicted to habits, but not to stuff. I'll watch a full season of a TV show in a day, but I don't drink or smoke or own many possessions.
So... kind of? |

Maybe it's not personality

I can't wait for my treatment to start tomorrow. I'm addicted to counselling.
