Another Day, Another New Addiction - Cryptocurrencies!


It seems we can become addicted to anything these days, hot on the heels of the usual suspects (eg social media, watching TV, porn etc) comes the latest addiction - cryptocurrencies.

There is even a test that you can take, to determine if you are addicted!

Courtesy of Castle Craig Hospital:
      • Do I spend a lot of time thinking about different types of cryptocurrency?
      • Am I spending large amounts on cryptocurrency?
      • Have I tried to slow down or completely stop cryptocurrency trading – but not been able to?
      • Do I become restless or irritable if I try to cut down my screen time related to cryptocurrency?
      • Do I jump on the computer and start trading in cryptocurrency to escape from life’s problems or to try to elevate my mood?
      • Do I carry on trading in cryptocurrency after losing money – to try to gain it back?
      • Have I ever fibbed to other people about how much time or money I spend trading in cryptocurrency? Have I ever taken money unlawfully to fund my cryptocurrency addiction?
      • Has my cryptocurrency trading habit had an effect on my relationships or my job?
      • Do I try to get other people to lend me money when I have lost on investment?

    Cheese As Addictive As Hard Drugs


    Apparently, according to a study published in the Public Library of Science One, cheese contains a chemical found in addictive drugs

    Using the Yale Food Addiction Scale, designed to measure a person’s dependence on, scientists found that cheese is particularly potent because it contains casein.

    The substance, which is present in all dairy products, can trigger the brain’s opioid receptors which are linked to addiction.

    Cheeses!

    Nanny Hates Sugar


    Dame Sally Davies, Nanny's chief medical officer, is so alarmed about the dangers of sugar that she wants it taxed.

    Sigh!

    In her view (as per the BBC) "research will find sugar is addictive".

    Read that statement very carefully.... she is saying in effect that although there is no evidence that sugar is addictive, one day there will be evidence.

    Please bear in mind that she is meant to be Nanny's chief medical officer and, as such, should have some form of scientific education wherein beliefs and gut feelings are outweighed by facts.

    Evidently, when one has "faith", facts and science aren't important!

    With regard to addiction, here is a list of things that are addictive:

    - booze
    - fags
    - drugs
    - coffee/tea
    - chocolate
    - porn
    - sex
    - exercise
    - anorexia
    - overeating
    - cosmetic surgery
    - violence
    - wanking
    - the internet
    - tweeting etc

    In short, most things in the human experience are addictive if they are "overdone". The key to living a healthy, non addictive, life is to have balance and perspective and not to overdo one's little pleasures (ie apply commonsense).
