Little addictions.

Addiction is a real problem and incredibly hard to diagnose. I'm not talking about drugs, I'm talking about those little additions that subtly sublimely control nearly every decision in your life. Addiction to caffeine, sugar, social media, TV, driving too fast, being an asshole, being a complainer, etc.

There's a lot of reasons why we do what we do or why we think we do them but for the most part it's about chasing those bits of dopamine. But chasing them can lead to some very destructive behaviors.
