Addictive Personality? Who me!?
BySo I was reading this thing in the NYT about addictive personalties and looking in the mirror.
” Four Common personality traits of those with addictions and addictive personality.
1.” Impulsive behavior, difficulty in delaying gratification, an antisocial personality and a disposition toward sensation seeking.”
CHECK
2.”A high value on nonconformity combined with a weak commitment to the goals for achievement valued by the society.”
BIG FAT CHECK
3. “A sense of social alienation and a general tolerance for deviance”.
HOLY CRAP WHAT A HUUUUUUUUGE CHECK
4. “A sense of heightened stress. This may help explain why adolescence and other stressful transition periods are often associated with the most severe drug and alcohol problems.”
uhmmm CHECK
