Today I thought I’d look at Addiction and how the seemingly harmless things in our lives can eat away at our time.

Television

I do know of people who actually plan their days around certain television programs. Even with the introduction of video, dvd recorders, and other methods of pausing TV in it’s tracks to enable us to watch programs at a more convenient time, a story-line or reality show has them hooked to the point that they must watch it to make sure that no-one around the water cooler or in the staff room can ruin it for them the next day by telling them what happened before they’ve seen the episode themselves.

Electronic Game Addiction

Once one of these games has it’s hooks into the human being you used to know and love, you have a serious battle on your hands. It’s time to take action when you realise that it’s affecting their social life; relationships; priorities; sleep; finances; food and personal hygiene.
