Addiction

Here is the definition of an addiction:

Any behavior that is repeated in spite of negative consequences. A behavior becomes addictive when it changes our mood or emotions.

So, what are you addicted to?

Repression Is Not the Way to Virtue

“Repression is not the way to virtue. When people restrain themselves out of fear, their lives are by necessity diminished. They become rigid and defensive, and their self stops growing. Only through freely choosing discipline can life be enjoyed, and still kept within the bounds of reason. If a person learns to control his instinctual desires, not because he has to, but because he wants to, he can enjoy himself without becoming addicted.”
