It is not physically addictive. If your life sucks and you use it to cope, you’ll be cranky when you stop, same as if you used trash TV to cope but your cable goes out.

I see you have meet an ex of mine. Totally useless and unable to do anything after work except watch 3 hours of the same TV shows she grew up with. No, we didn’t break up over this. It was mildly annoying not relationship breaking.
