chocolate

We all have heard or seen of individuals who are addicted to drug, alcohol and even tobacco, but is there such a thing as “Chocolate addiction”? This story is about a chocolate addicted woman who not only eats her own chocolate but also her children's without their knowledge. She knows she is doing the wrong thing, but cannot stop, no matter how hard she tries. This ashamed and embarrassed habit really bothers her, because she can`t control herself. Eating lots of chocolate is so necessary thing for her that she gets headache if she eats less than 10 bars it in a day. She has finally realized that she needs professional help.

Do you like chocolate?
Yes, I do. I really like chocolate especially with nuts. But of course not as much as when I was a child, then I used to adore chocolate.

How would you advise the writer?
The woman in the story clearly has an addiction and it`s an illness, so like the other diseases she should go to a doctor.
In my opinion it`s kind of addiction and because of that, her problem won`t be solve only with diet and medicines, surly she really need a psychologist, and find the root cause for her addiction. What is she running away from? Is she finding comfort in chocolate indulgence as a substitute for something else? …And if she is really eager, like many others addicted, she certainly will cured.

  1. I think that we're all addicted to something. It may be:
    -checking messages on Facebook
    -playing with mobiles
    -smoking
    I think we all do something to make us less nervous and more comfortable in a situation. I'm sure psychologist would say that it comes from insecurity or some even in our childhood. What do you think?
    Anyone addicted to anything? Come on. Admit it!
