    They say everybody has an addiction. I have drug addicts in my life so I know how bad that can get. My addiction is a lot less severe and pretty normalized at this point. Caffeine is my drug of choice. That s--- does wonders for my focus, sometimes I can’t focus or think without it.

    What’s your addiction?

    Definitely coffee. But I have to see I used to drink 10-12 cups a day and I managed to get it down to 5 a day max!

    I’m glad you’re working on that man! I usually get my caffeine from pop and energy drinks, never really been a coffee guy but some of that stuff is good too!

    True. Thankfully I barely drink those anymore. I’m still kicking the pop habit, I also drink a lot less of that than I used to. I’m trying to stop it while I’m still young because I know when I get older that s--- is gonna f--- me up lol. I’m just glad I’m not addicted to actual drugs.

    Coffee for me, the worst kind of addiction. I’ll have coffee in the morning, afternoon and night. The gym is close second. Never got into energy drinks though… Occasionally I’ll have cig or the good good. :emoji_thinking:

    I did overcome a pill addiction years back. That wasn’t fun. But I tell you what, I’ll never go down that road again. No bueno

    I was the same as you. Easily 10+ cups of coffee a day. September last year though I got so sick that I couldn't stomach anything for about a week so no coffee at all. I had the worst withdrawal symptoms which proved how bad my addiction was so I powered through and I'm proud to say I'm 100% caffeine for nearly a year now.

    Yeah well the main reason was at the office, we all got coffee for eachother. So everytime someone asks hey man want another coffee its like okay yes lol. Last year during a hot as f--- day I only drank water and in the evening I had a huge headache. I was thinking how is this possible and then I remembered I had no coffee that day lmao

    I won't quit coffee , but I start out with 2 in the morning and maybe 1 or 2 in the afternoon. Good balance between still enjoying it but not too much.

    Alcohol would have to be my main weakness. But I have gone cycles of not drinking at all for months on end to drinking again.
    A lot of the times I feel ts my mental state that perpetuates the addiction due to self medicating. But thats a whole nother issue lol

    It used to be weed. I wish it was weed instead of alcohol. But weed was more of a routine issue than an addiction
