Comment on Instagram boss: 16 hours of daily use is not addiction
lastlybutfirstly@lemmy.world 1 day agoYes I read your comment. So if a man is compelled to murder two hobos a month and can’t break the habit, that would not be a strong indication of an addiction?

I mean I know you asked this as a kind of gotcha, but yes psychologists have long argued that seriel killing can be classified as a behavioral addiction. Ted Bundy himself said he felt addicted to killing.

It’s not a gotcha. It’s more of the Socratic method.

Lol ok. I guess that means you don’t have actual arguments or are just trying to be a troll.
Either way, have a good one.

I’m not trolling. I’m trying to get you to think about what you’re saying. I’m hoping if you do, you’ll realize that doctors have to base their diagnosis on “I want to stop but I can’t” and that’s all. Unless it’s something like drinking or drugs that can kill you or harm others, they can’t help some one who says they don’t have a problem.
