Answer by sandra dee
you should do some sort of unusual addiction like one that’s not as commonly discussed, like drugs/alcohol. maybe something like treating addiction to food, or the most interesting, sex. that last one would be nice and controversial as well 🙂 fun! push da boundaries you rebel. and it is actually a real problem for some people and not as often talked about cuz of its taboo nature!!!
