How does a person identify their addictive traits?
Addiction is a natural human tendency, everyone is addicted to something or someone to an extent. However, when this addiction takes over the rest of your life, so you are unable to focus on anything else, that’s when it is understood as an addiction that requires rehabilitation. A person who is known to have an addictive personality is someone who tends to lose him or herself in repetitive behaviors or obsessions to the exclusion of everything or everyone else in his or her life. If this tends to happen often in your life you may have an addictive personality.
We can become addicted to many things. Some people are addicted to anxiety, others to hate, and some to heroine. Being an addict is a failure in our capacity to deny the value of a source of pleasure. The behavior, denial, is necessary to allow us to adapt and to exploit. Humans vary along a normal distribution. Addiction is an extreme that compromises our capacity to adapt away from behaviors that bind us to behavioral loops.
