Reasons Why Addiction Is Bad
“Why Addiction Is Bad?” is a prudent question that seeks for the right answers from you and I.
I’m writing about this very topic because I have been involved in one addiction, and I strongly belive that each and every one of you have involved in one form of addiction or the other.
Well, before I start this very article proper, let me share my personal experience on addiction.
Remember that there are so many things people can get addictied to such as gambling, pornography, substance, social media, food, etc.
With that being, some years back at the university, I was engaged in watching pornographic videos, a lifestyle that started after seeing my school mate watching X-rated videos, and it turned to be my hubby. It was like little, little foxes that spoil the vine.
At the university, my whole life and academic focus plummeted, and I spend more time and money watching pornography than concentrating on my studies as a student.
This negative lifestyle made me to start staying away from female friends and my relationship life was crashing without me realizing the actual cause.
My performannce in school was poor and I starting borrowing money from friends without investing it on anything meaningful.
From there, masturbation sets in and suffering started in my life. I began living a sedentary life, feeling guilt, having distorted orientations, my financial and spiritual life became a mess. I life lived a disappointed life, without anyone to open up to and solution seemed far.
I prayed, made new year resolutions, engaged myself in social activities, but still the “demon” was still in charge of my life, especially when I get home. Also, I cried but believing God that one day I will overcome.
Although it took me years of masturbation (from 2018 to 2025), but with God (constant cry to God), self-discipline and determination, I was saved from the destructive monster. Honestly, I’m a living proof that ANY FORM OF ADDICTION IS OUTRIGHTLY BAD!
