There are various forms of addiction that has a negative impact on a person's life but most people associate dependency with alcohol or drug abuse. Other forms of addiction like gambling, shopping, computer, and binge eating can affect a person's life to the point that their mental and physical health is compromised too. Some behavioral addictions may not affect a person's physical health in the same way alcohol or drug abuse does but when we have compulsive behaviors we're unable to control it affects our lives and keeps us from being truly happy.

Emotional Withdrawal
