That doesn't mean it's not really the same thing, being addicted to something means you are a slave to it... be it soda, coffee, booze, games, drugs, sex, music, etc.When I drink my 2.2 liters every day I'm in and out of the bathroom. Yesterday I went for an hour and a half massage and I was told to drink a lot of water after I was done... so I did, 2.2 liters, and I didn't piss at all. I attributed that to the massage, I guess it releases the bodies toxins and in turn needed the water to replenish? guess it's true when they say a good massage is healthy for you, I really need to do it more often... I still feel like I'm on a cloud.

Re: Various Addictions:
Yeah I agree with you, one can become mentally addicted to anything... but that being said, drugs and booze tend to become (in later stages of the addiction) a physical addiction - per example, everyone in my family is either an alk, druggie, or a recovering (and I'm quite headed that way), and when they try and quit they physically "can't" because their body's detox of the drug is too powerful, they've got to go down slowly, if not just abandon it all together and say, "**** it, I'm having a drink/hit". I'm not too familar with, let's say, a video-game addiction (I acknowledge it does happen, though), though I kind of have trouble believing one would physically detox from that. I'm not saying the lackof a detox makes the addiction any more or less "powerful", just, as you said, different. Though THAT being said as well, one can mentally think that they'd detox, and their body would react to what their mind was thinking. Ya dig?
Re: Massage
I just can't piss after drinking 4litres a day because there's just too much other **** in my system haha (OTC stuff, whatever I can get my hands on). I need a massage badly, to cleanse myself & ease the pains of sitting on this chair all goddamn day. Ha.
