Crack and stuff. but what about other weird addictions?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
There are many: You can be addicted to a lot of things besides drugs. Relationships, shopping, exercise, food, sex, gambling, porn, internet, work. If your reward center is activated significantly by something you do, experience or ingest, then there is a risk of developing an addiction. Easy on those chocolates !
