Thank you

I think I’ll stick to the word “habit”. It has less of a negative connotation to it. Unlike the other additions you spoke about, which you need to actively and consciously seek and engage in a behaviour/substance (eg seeking out and consuming excessive amounts of food, drugs, alcohol, gambling, etc) what I’m dealing with is also subconscious. You can lock me in an empty room and I will not have access to these things, but will always have access to my thoughts.

That said, being locked away in an empty room for a period of time sounds pretty awesome right now.
