First of all, it's good to see that you're being honest with yourself. To be honest, I grappled with your issue, as well - the term "addict" has lots of unpleasant connotations for most people, and no one likes to think of themselves as "powerless," or "out of control."

As the article points out, don't get caught up in the terms. The way I look at it is, whether or not I'm an addict, the techology of ercovery can help me. So I'll use it.

As an aside, there are different levels of "powerless," but on a basic level, it implies a lack of power, a lack of control. And that's certainly present by all of us. If we had the power we wanted, we wouldn't have a problem.

Keep on rocking!

Great post! I've been thinking the exact same way and really, that's the reason I'm on this website. Whether I qualify as a textbook addict or not, I still think that the tools on this website can assist me.

I thought you would be disappointed in me to be honest. I've been struggling with the "addict" tag from day 1 when you tried to set me straight.
