An addiction is a substance or an activity which a person uses over and over again. Our mind is like a computer. Whatever way we program it that is what it does. In other words whatever you do more and more the more attached our mind becomes to it. In my counseling I teach my client how to train their mind to stop their addiction and feel about doing it with simple yet effective ideas. I overcame four addictions myself 15 years ago including sex addiction.
