Really whats your ex vice? I mean anything... Smoking, drugs, alcohol, even things nothing like that, video game's, going out, shopping. There's a point when you do something so much it hurts you and those around you, so what was yours?
For me, it was playing World of Warcraft... yeah, sounds lame right? well, i was in one of the hardcore raiding guilds, we were constantly competing to be one of the best, most recognized guilds on the server, that meant raiding 6 hours a night, Farming 2-3 hours a day and thats an average day, then we'd be on all day before / after that... Most of us logged off to sleep. I quit my job to play wow, i quit driving to save gas money to pay wow, disconnected my cell phone, started selling things to make paymnents on stuff. but i didnt even have it that bad.
A buddy of mine divorced his wife to play more, sold his car / house / possessions to keep funding his desire to play about 18+ hours a day.
Three weeks ago on the Tyra banks show, a man refused to drive his wife to the emergency room, her water broke, but... he was raiding. And we know a game > RL (Real life) right? yeah.
About a year ago now, a Chinese kid played for four days straight, he never left the room, didnt go out to eat, or drink. Was using the corner as a "Rest room" then he left a note that said "I want to live with the blizzard gods" (Blizzard is the creator of the game, WoW) so then he jumped out a window.
And now i've quit it for the last few months. You'd be surprised how hard it is to quit that game...
So tell me your story.
