but what about 'Addictive Behaviours'? where do they come from?
an example would be OCD-like behaviour which is a disproportionate type of mental-looping which is recognised by the individual as being unhealthy, and yet they find they cannot stop.
certain gaming behaviours - like my experiences in WoW - also were extremely addictive.
what's the patterning behind repeating these detrimental loops?
It's pleasure. The pursuit of pleasure.
Gimme gimme gimme.
