the 5 dangers of addiction

1.    health problems: Drug addiction can lead to a range of both short-term and long-term mental and physical health problems. These depend on what drug is taken

 

2.  poverty: Gambling addiction can lead to poverty, where by no saving, you use all your money to gambl and you are left with nothing

 

 

3.    personality and psychiatric disorders: internet addiction can lend to personality and psychiatric disorders  including low self-esteem, impulsivity, poor sleep quality, mood disorder, and suicide.

 

4.    Indulging in trade-offs for sex: Almost all sex addicts are willing to trade their time and currency, particularly when illicit sex is the end game. The sexual cravings are too strong to resist, which means that sex addicts are often willing to part with their hard-earned cash and any spare time they get to satisfy those urges.

 

5.    Feeling remorse or guilt after sex: Shame and guilt often accompany most addictions, and this is prevalent when it comes to eating disorders, too. The more the person eats, the guiltier they feel. It’s the same with sexual engagement. It feels good at the moment, but shortly afterwards, not so much. The type of ‘emotional hangover’ that a sex addict often experiences after engaging in risky sexual behaviour is nothing to be envied. These feelings of inadequacy often follow them around for a long time until they get their next ‘fix’ and the cycle ensues.
