And I wanted to get that out today, but I am an addict and acknowledging that is the only way to be able to get past cut out there for a second. Sorry about that, but yeah, I wanted to get it out. At least that I'm an addict. And hopefully that'll start to change my frame of mind right now. I guess I don't really see anything wrong with what I'm doing because I'm addicted to it, and I would like that to change
Hey, Nick, just wanted to say thank you for welcoming me. That's kind of cool. I agree. It's different being able to hear someone a lot of nuance and vocal speech, and a lot better ways to convey your emotional state rather than just text, which can obviously be misinterpreted. So maybe there will be a little bit less than that in the social media app. That would be kind of cool

On the contrary, addiction is an individual's attempt to solve a quandary. Before we can address addicted, this simple fact must be understood. What is the problem that addiction is meant to resolve? As the Rolling Stones guitars Keith Richards wrote in his memoir about his own heroine habit. It can be a search for oblivion, he writes of, quote, the contortions we go through just not to be ourselves for a few hours. So the question is, why would a person long to escape themselves?

Oh, sorry, I forgot it was recording. I just wanted to follow up with talking about what is addiction with more about solution and that's the treatment of addiction treatment must be again with an acknowledgment of the fundamental problem the addiction is attempting to resolve in a person's life. In other words, what needs to be explored is not what's wrong with addiction, but what is right about it. People experiencing addiction already know that their habits are body and soul annihilating, not to mention socially nihilistic
