Reminds me of the "Ancient Aliens" theory....

Just think whatever we are doing now and just say to yourself that I'm so addicted to it. Bing on the PC all day gaming is one of them  wakeup and first thing that most of us do, are on our phones or the PC becomes powerd up. Gaming is not work earning related.

Videogame addiction. People tend to skip school for it.. (like myself for a couple of years)

I was actually very guilty for this one because I skipped school countless times as result of playing games and even left school when I'm not supposed to.

I agree on alcohol because it actually damages you if you drink too much. You can at least survive from gambling but alcohol might kill you slowly. 

I don't agree with social media because most people consider it as entertaining rather than something bad.

If we are considering using social media sites as an addiction, then it's definitely obvious that the world is suffering from it. 

Who doesn't make use of them today?

For me, porn is probably one of the worst, if not the worst.

Addiction to sex is not good especially if you are not married. It's going to screw with your life in so many ways you can't understand the implications.

Addiction to phones is the worst scenario now. Everybody is busy with their phones. Either be gaming or chatting or seeing social updates.

Seriously, that's basically something that an average person is addicted to now in our society. It's even breached face to face communication.

Personally, I see it as a big back step in our human nature because we don't know how to connect any more apart from social media.

Addiction to gambling is a huge problem. Lives of many have been ruined because of it. Another dangerous addiction is the addiction to social media. People forget how to interact in real life and cannot even look others in eyes when talking. Alcohol addiction takes lives too.

You can get addicted to high spending.   In that case, you could even have big lottery winnings gone in a year or less.  Well, I believe there are real stories of that!

Some people are even addicted already even when they have not won anything. Their belief of being able to win is always going to cloud their judgment.

If you have no control over how to get into playing video games, it's definitely going to make you spend more than you're supposed to be doing so.
