addictive personalities can be a superpower.
hear me out.
if you have this personality trait you NEED friction. you need stimulation. You need intensity.
so obviously when you don’t have it, you turn to things that make the world seem less bleak.
“You never actually wanted chocolate what you wanted was raw liver” - direct parallel. you need to pour this intensity into something. a project. a purpose. boom. you feel fulfilled and you make something awesome in the process. maybe you’ll even lose your desire to turn to other substances or means of escape if it makes you feel happy enough.
it can be a superpower if you channel it. a problem arises. you’re stuck. you consume far more than you create. none of your coping mechanisms feed your soul. if you can recondition your palate, it will be a game changer.
Taste —-> intensity
Motivation —-> drive
destructive? yeah. but destruction begets creation, creation begets destruction. destroy the old to make space for the new and fill it up with something worth having.
take up that challenge. you’ll feel fuller in the end.
reconcile and stop beating yourself up over your tendencies. start fixing yourself, whining gets you nowhere. accept you’re someone who needs challenge and then create it for yourself.
sure it takes time and patience but time will pass anyway.
