      I am really excited to know the addiction of each one of you :P
    • Thank you dear Whisper, and please let us see more of you, your are simply a pillar, very important one in the forum

      I would like to add something, addiction is known to be bad a thing just like you mentioned and wanted us or asking us to try to get rid of it. I would like to say that some addictions are good, well

      I'm addicted to smoking.....bad
      I,m addicted to my job....good

      I hope to hear from all and believe me it is not a secrect or private to say such things

      See you all, and thanks once again Whisper

      Regards

    • Thanks Tenderness for claryfing it.. YEs, sometimes addiction is good and sometimes it is bad..


      So Tenderness, did you tell us your real addiction or you just gace some examples ~!@q


      well, let me tell you about my addiction

      I am really addicted in watching movies ( English movies) , and sometimes when i am in a good mood i watch 2-4 movies a day

      in the past, i don't feel normal if i didn't see a movie aday but now i am trying to live without a TV sometimes..

      I have to say that my addiction in movies help me in gainning many new words and also gain some knowledge about some wonderful stories and i usually like classic movies $$e

      That is my addiction

      so what about the rest? |a
    • Tenderness كتب:

      Yes dear, thet were not examples, I'm addicted to them

      Wll addiction sometimes is temporary, I used to addicted to movies but not anymore

      :)

      Just adding a comment here




      I hope that you will quit smoking because it is a bad habbit for you and it may effect people who lives around you..

      For example, i remebered that i watched a programm in Tv about cancer ., There was a patient of Cancer who doesn't smoke but he was infected because his colleage in Job was smoking..

      So, smoking may effect non- smokers more than smokers. So you have t o be careful when you smoke and try to be away in order to not infect others

      Don't you think so?



    • very interesting ... Whisper...!!i

      a little comment: There is no Good Addiction!!!i
      even being addicted to good things turns out bad.
      no matter what it was.

      ~!@q
      i am proud of myself that i was able to stop some addictions that were ruining my life and soul.
      Tenderness, if have the will... you can too..!!!i

      one i couldnt stop.. the funny thing is that it should be the easiest...
      Caffiene.

    • Wallah I'm praying I quit

      I'm not only saying it, but mean it too

      Mrs. what do you think if we both quit smoking and caffeine

      Good Idea
      :)

      We all know that addiction is related to bad things, but when I said good addiction I meant being addicted to unharmful things. To make it clear, or to make my self clear, saying I'm addicted to drugs is different from saying I'm addicted to TV, or to choclate

      If you to differentiate between the two things, drugs and choclate then you can sense the degree of harm though both were related to addiction

      And do not ask me because I do not understand what I have written

      10derness



    • yes , that i could make more sence.

      ANY addiction is harmful, but the degree of harm is dramatically different with each.
      i agree.

      I once read that a workaholic (wordk addict), was really successful, and made alot of money, but one day while he was working late, apparently exhasted and forcing himself, he got a heart attack and died right then. His wife then said that he never slept well, never relaxed, and never ate well, and never was there for his family and children. his life was all work work work
      i see that as HORRIBALLY bad. So what if he got double money and double success than his colleages? he lost his life
      even before dying he actually "lost" his life


      quiting... hmmmmm
      ok
      i'll take the deal tenderness and try to quit caffiene and u try to quit smoking
      i just had a huge cup of coffee.. so maybe we should postpone this deal for sometime
      #e




    • OK OK OK, I will quit work, I do not want to die, I really don't
      I belive
      الاعمار بيد الله
      BUT, we can make it longer, yes we can
      ANY IDEA?i

      OK Mrs. Unfaithful, I like it to be even, let me have a cigarrette, and wait your trigger for the pospone over

      Come every body, let us hear from you, do not be shy, do not be scared, do not hide

      :)

    • Thanks a lot to Whisper for the topic. Firstly i think any one can stop his addiction believe me I use to do some bad habit than it become addiction (the reason for bad friends), but alhamd llah I stopped and I thank allah for help me, do you know I do this habit for 10 years and I didn’t give up. Its need just decision, and also my advice to see move one or more (English or Arabic) it is waste of time and we all responsible about this time in the last day

    • Hi to all

      It may sound odd and strange but I'm addicted to fight and argue with anyone against me at home or here in al Sa7ah. Especially here in al Sa7ah if I didn't find any one to argue with I loose my enthusiasm. But at home I create an argument or a fight if there is nothing. I know u may say what a trouble maker but I don't care what u guys would say


    • Miss bomb... lol
      i would say that is a Habit (a rather annoying habit!!) more than an addiction!!i
      arguments keeps your mind awake.. keep it up!!.. especially that you seem to enjoy them that much
      :)

      RaNa
      or should i say Ms. Couch Potato??s
      I wonder what makes you attached to TV,,
      i would say that is an addiction.. cuz its been proven that your brain activity goes down to less than half while watching TV (for long enough)s

      At first, I would like to apologize to all of you for being away
      because i wasn't stable recently and i am not using my own PC. Besides, the net is terribly slow with me. $

      So dear Mrs. Unfaithful, you didn't tell us exactly the type of addiction that wree almost ruinning your life as you described it. Can you be more specific or you can't say it.

      But you mentioned Caffiene which is Coffee and i also like Coffee so much. But i don't drink it daily. I just drink it a lot when i have a terrible headache because it is more effective than Panadol.. But please, don't anyone try to imitate me or you might gain another addiction in your life
    • YSK_lol كتب:

      My addiction is the Internet and my work and as well reading



      Thanks YSK for sharing us your 3 types of addiction.

      But, can you please explain for you how addicted you are to reading? I mean how many hours do you spend in reading? It will be really interesting if you have the time to tell us about this addiction. That is because this addiction might be really dangerous to your life..

      Thanks Dear sister for your reply which it really makes me laugh a lot #j

      But i am afraid as MRs unfaithful said that this is just a habbit. And i hope it is not the same in your real life ~!@q because that will be a big problem ~!@@ad

      So, i hope that you will come back and tell us about something that love to do it everyday and it becomes addiction in your life and you might not realizing that!!!

      Whisper...thanks for ur comments
      I read everything. I mean everything. I read the instructions on shampoo bottles. This disgusting habit was essentially forced upon me because, except for about a year when I was 12, I didn't have a TV until after I left home at age 19. I'd find the book they were reading and try to read fast enough to get ahead of where they were in it. The rule in my family (we had lots of arguments about books!) was that the person furthest ahead had priority over the book. So now I'm addicted to reading. Its caused me much shame over the years, culminating in the humiliation of my best subject in secondary school being English. Not physics, English. All because of this damned addiction to reading. I've tried everything to quit - I've even tried smoking a cigarette whenever I felt like a book. All to no avail. That's the story behind my addiction to reading

      I have really to say that i am impressed and astonished at the same time. I get impressed by the beginning of your story and how it begun but i am astonished that you tried to smoke in order to forget that you are a book? I hope that you didn't get rid of your addiction to reading by having another one like Smoking..

      I also like reading but i can describe myself addicted to reading whenever i have a holiday and i am away from TV. BEcause i spend most of my time in reading stories ( I don't prefer reading anything else) and i usually finish one story in two days. But in regular days, i just read 2- 4 pages before i sleep because it helps me to sleep quickly $$-e

      SO, i am just addicted to reading in a specific time( Thanks Allah for that) because if i was addicted to reading i might lose my sight. BEcause it is know that reading a lot may effect your sight, so we have to be careful about that and that why i asked to tell us more about your addiction

      LOL.. whisper!!!!!!i
      I should have came to you to tell me how you can be addicted with control like that!!!!i

      Addiction:
      Definition:
      [n] an abnormally strong craving
      [n] being abnormally tolerant to and dependent on something that is psychologically or physically habit-forming

      Please people dont confuse habits (good and bad habits) and hobbies with addiction!!!i

      YSK_lol


      fascinating.
      i have never heard anyone who formed such a strong habit on reading!!i
      i must to say: keep it up.. !!!!!!!!i dont even think that a ciggerette would replace the joy of reading a book!!!!i (unless you smoke while you read... *kidding!*)i

      for your kind information i'm not fighting with you

      i didnt like your reply so asked you

      that's it
    • cooooooooooooooooooooll,such a nice topic,,
      i am addicted to sth might not be very harmfull,, but sometimes,, i really feel it is,,
      i am addicted to TEA
      if i dont drink tea at least once or twice a day,i get headach,and really think it's because of the tea,
      i dont think it's so harmfull 4 my body but the problemis with it's availability or time to drink it

      so,i am trying now to make it less essential, and instead of making it addiction, i drink only when time suits me!!!
