Addictions:
Gerard May suggests that
there are two kinds of addictions namely process addictions such as angry
perfectionism, compulsive fear an overweening need for approval etc and
substance addiction. He also suggest that addictions
can be looked at from two perspectives. Firstly there are attraction
addictions, i.e. ones in which we find something pleasurable-eating, TV,
smoking. Secondly there are aversion addiction i.e. ones where we find
something repulsive-fear of failure, aversion to pain. While many of us think
that only certain groups of people such as alcoholics are addicted, the fact is
that all of us suffer from addiction . A new wave of addictions are coming into our lives as adults
who have phones check their phones every 12 minutes on average. The impact this
is having on family relationship is seriously damaging people ability to engage
in conversation. The World Health Organization has now identified a new
psychological, condition in young boys which needs professional help in order
to free them from their smart phone addiction.
