Do you have excessive behaviors of indulgence, like eating too much, drinking too much, drugs abuse, shopping addiction?
I am guilty of the following:
1 too much smoking
2. too much coffee
3. too much time behind the computer - 12-16 hours a day
I am a binging person - but how about you?

Are you sure you didn't write your list about me? Those are the same as I would put down too!
I definitely smoke too much, drink way too much coffee and spend at about the same amount of time per day in front of my computer.
I am going out tonight to hear a friend's band so I'm cutting my computer time short today. I still try to have a life away from my computer. It's not always easy! LOL

LOL! Well reading some of my responses to your questions today, I guess I must come across as a really boring person!!! But - the honest answer to your question, is that I am not a binger at all! I do smoke (but only about 5 a day, not the 30 a day I used to smoke when I was younger), but other than that, I am not an addicitve personality and do everything in moderation! Probably part of my desire to be "in control" which I spoke about earlier in one of your other discussions. So I like a drink occasionally, but I NEVER get drunk - I like chocolate, but only ever eat it occasionally, and I hate coffee! LOL! As for the Interet, - well working full-time I wouldn't have the time to spend 12-16 hours a day here even if I wanted too! More like 2 or 3! Have a good day!

While I do spend a lot of time in front of the computer, I don't consider it as a binging...besides being here a lot, I'm also scanning and digitizing my photo collection, writing articles, writing stories and so forth. Ah...but I do share something with you..smoking...trying to quit, but failing badly..LOL..that's about it really.

Hi Pyewacket dear, and thank you for your responce ;) And yes, I am not able to quit smoking, and will keep doing it for now, until I get tired, or see a way to quit. I do consider that my social life is lacking a lot due to my excessive Internet and computer use, no matter that it is my work too. I need to cut the hours, and not be online more than 8 hour, and will not be able to rest, and feel happy while working up to 16 hours, as this SUCKS...

Hello there. I try to treat my body as well as I could. However I am also guilty of overeating sometimes. I like to eat chocolates. I can skip breakfast, lunch and dinner to eat chocolates. This is very bad. I am trying to cut down on my intake of chocolates.
I also feel that I sleep too little. (average 7 hours a day) I need to treat myself better by sleeping more (maybe about 9 hours a day). =D

Hi Poohgal, and thank you for your responce in here ;)
And yes, every excess is no good, but eating daily a piece of dark chocolate is good, if you only eat a bit every day - it will make a difference for you I think :)
