The ‘Addictions’ We All Have & Why You Should Give Yourself A Break

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

When people hear the word ‘addiction’, they most likely associate it with obsessive patterns of drug use or excessive behaviour that is having a detrimental effect on a person’s life. While these connotations hold true, there is a different type of ‘addiction’ that plagues each and every one of our lives without most ever even realizing. I’m talking about vices. Vices are essentially external things that we use as pleasure stimuli to gratify ourselves, also known as void fillers. This is something we are all guilty of to some extent.

From the day we are born, we are exposed to a plethora of environmental stimuli which our brain begins to compartmentalize as either pleasurable or non-pleasurable. Babies and children are given toys to satisfy their attention span, adolescents discover the joys of sugary treats, teenagers become consumed with alcohol, TV and Internet, college students begin indulging in drugs and their morning, afternoon, and evening coffee, and adulthood usually coalesces all of the latter. These vices are cunning and evasive, as most of us never realize how much these small pleasures are actually crutches. At some point the line between innocent pleasure stimuli and addictive vices becomes obscured, and these vices become fillers of ‘the void’.

The void is generated by the system. It is an emptiness that exists in most of us because we are never taught how to truly heal our inner voids. We are never taught at a young enough age that the adage had it right all along, “nothing external can truly fulfill”. Through spiritual discipline we eventually learn this, however.
