That's me and I've learned to accept it.
Like Shockzulu I've learned to check my motives though...
if it enriches my life or adds to it, all well and good...
if it diminishes my life - if I'm running away or avoiding life, or doing something I feel is antithetical to who I want to be - it's not so good.

How do you learn to check your motives?
I'm definitely still in running away mode. Most definitely so I think my motives are always wrong at this point.
The Internet for example. I was obsessed with posting on another forum for years. By far the too poster, like ridiculous 1200 posts a week as compared to a couple of hundred by the other top users. It takes away from my kids and my hubby and everything really.
That's good to know you don't feel you are addicted anymore.
