    Coffee - drink about 5 cups a day and get head aches if I don't, got worse when I got an office job.

    Playstation- play it more than I should but it's one of the places I can truly lose myself and relax

    One coffee in the morning, but after that you can keep it. Tea, big mugs of builders tea every couple of hours all the live long day. Gimme the tea.

    I once drove twelve miles to the nearest 24 hour petrol station at 3am to buy four bars of chocolate. I really only wanted one, but felt that it would have been a wasted journey, so I bought four. Not having chocolate in the house genuinely makes me uncomfortable. I eat it more or less constantly and could easily get through a bag of fun-size Crunchies or Mars Bars in one sitting.

    I'm not addicted though. I could stop any time I wanted to, if I wanted to, which I don't.

    The drink breaks your will power by the 3rd pint, "fcuk it we'll get a bag!" turns into a session until 6 in the morning... Many bags later

    I tend to be more of a behavior addict than a substance one. Video games used to be the main one (kicked it, but still on the waggon so to speak...)

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Judo, running, reading and motorbikes.

    Judo, running, reading and motorbikes.

    You sure they aren’t hobbies, dude?

    Like you aren’t likely to go, ‘Jesus, I won’t be able to cope if I don’t get my judo fix in the morning’.

    I’m addictided to buying caps and hats! As long as it has the new era logo I have to have it! I bought 4 in the last week that I don’t even need! Mostly NFL!

    Coffee and tea. I can drink either at anytime day or night. Neither keep me awake at night as I drink both so much that I’ve become immune to that effect..

    I’m also addicted to Netflix, I can spend ages browsing netflix before choosing something, I then binge watch series! It has left me that I don’t even walk 2 miles a day anymore!

    The phone/social media, I’ve set updates to let me know, how much screen time I’ve had each week. Every single notification has informed me that my screw time has been more and more each week.

    Tattoos is my latest addiction, got my first one several weeks ago and I’m now looking at getting my second tattoo, when my first isn’t even fully finished.

    Withdrawing money from the atm has become extremely satisfying, even if I only carry it around in my wallet after for weeks on end..

    I used to smoke so much weed. I really enjoyed the out of body experience and it helped me forget my problems and worries for a while. But now I just try to deal with my problems..

    I used to be addicted to smoking cigarettes, but quit a year and a half ago!

    I'd say tea for me.

    I drink a good few cups a day. If i'm thirsty I'll make tea. if i've a job to do, i'll make a cup of tea before I start.
    sometimes I feel sick from drinking so much, and yet i'll still go and drink more.
    it really annoys me. I've tried not buying tea bags when I run out, but it doesn't last long and then i'll go drink a stupid amount, so it's not worth it:D

    I don't even think I like the taste of tea!
    it's more about having a hot drink

    Me too, there is something very relaxing and de-stressing about the early AM like now. Time and space and quiet to plan the day and week ahead as well as thinking and making plans for further down the track in life... clear headspace that you don’t get afforded often during daylight hours with all the other distractions and demands on your time. Or you could just be fûcking about on boards.

    Internet, I guess we're all addicted to that.

    Like you aren’t likely to go, ‘Jesus, I won’t be able to cope if I don’t get my judo fix in the morning’.

    No they're not hobbies. I live and breath Judo, and if I can't get out for a run I get very stressed. I can't stand the thought of a day when I can't do both. Judo more or less defines me, everyone know's me and associates me with Judo.. My avatar here, that's me fighting in blue.

    I love the feel of getting my Judo gear ready, and putting it on. If I have a poor training night I'm chomping at the bit for another go. I love getting bloodied and bruised, it makes me feel alive.

    Running is a fix. Obviously I'm not pitted against anyone, I don't race. Its a lonely individual addiction for me, but its my head space too.

    Reading, well I can't go to sleep without a read. Its a sub for sleeping pill's my GP would rather I take.

    Motorbikes, I'm a biker.

    I'm guessing you don't have a passion which makes you feel alive.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,061 ✭✭✭leggo

    If only this was the ‘Do you have a passion which makes you feel alive?’ thread. But thanks for answering a question nobody asked and insulting your man while you were here anyway!

    I’ve loads of passions, my friend. I’m able to differentiate a passion/hobby from an addiction though. Now the large coffee and Marlboro red I just had - that’s an addiction. Watching Liverpool yesterday- that’s a hobby.
