You can be addicted to anything, or anyone

Quitting people is like quitting crack. You know talking to that person is a bad idea, you know you should stay away from them. Yet something in you just can't bring yourself to do it. It's a full on addiction to the way they make you feel, the way they look at you, or the way they don't and you wish they would. 

You find yourself staring at your phone, tricking yourself into thinking it vibrated. Sending a message and then desperately trying to control your urge to message them again when they don't reply. You find yourself mentally calculating how long it's been since you last messaged them, and how long it will be until you can message them again without looking like a crazy person. 

Addictions aren't healthy, ultimately they are corrosive and damaging to everyone involved. They make you lose your power, your logic and your freedom. They have to be accepted and processed and then you need to move on. But how the hell do you do that when your biggest enabler is also the person you're addicted to.
