@warmblur: I second the addiction to 90s/2000s music (and aesthetics/style). Had/have a bit of a drinking problem but I’m pretty good at moderating it now, I’ll get drunk when I want to and go for stretches of sobriety when I choose to. I was addicted to working out for quite a few years, got mad anxiety if I had to miss the gym for even one day, now I realize there is more to life than working out and looking good, and pursue other interests with my time. The lockdown actually helped me realize what else I was missing out on with all the hrs I used to spend working out once the gym’s were closed.
Junk food. It's pretty bad. I don't smoke, I drink rarely, and I work out a lot. But I have a gut. Visceral fat is not healthy.
I'd say music and gaming are almost like addictions. I never missed school or called in sick, but my gaming habits in the past had definitely affected some of my friendships and relationships.
The closest thing to an addiction for me would probably be coffee. It's hardly an addiction, but I know caffeine is a psychoactive substance, and certain aspects of my daily routine trigger a craving for coffee.
Perhaps a weird one, but I'm kind of addicted to reading people being right tossers on the internet. Twitter, YouTube comments, Reddit, even sometimes the Politics Forum here.
It weirdly amuses me, and reinforces my misanthropy, which makes me feel strangely better.

It's called curiosity that kills the cat. It's not weird, Humans are predictable of anything. Every Human thinks differently but you in your case, you play your games differently than me. I find you interesting.
None really. Years ago it would have been soda (mostly diet) but I cut that back to 2 cans a week.
I guess ice cubes, yes you read that right. I go through a ton of ice a day in anything I drink (minus milk). I never did this before I had a pituitary tumor removed way back in 2006, I was in intensive care for 3 days after the surgery and all the drinks they brought me had a ton of crushed ice in them and I've needed ice in my drinks ever since.
Smoking, Diet Soda, my go to conservative pundits (I CANNOT miss a Tucker Carlson rant), and WoW. I know the OP said to omit gaming, but MMOs are a different beast.
Drinking really isn’t a thing for me, except when I’m on vacation.
Binge eating. Could have been addicted to drugs, alcohol, or whatever...turns out I overdose on food.
Part of me thinks it would have been easier to have just been addicted to cocaine and received help for it, and I'm sure drug addicts would read that and be like "Man I wish I was only addicted to food and not drugs." Grass is greener, amirite?!

Does Ikea count? Almost everything in my apartment is from Ikea. And I just keep buying more and more.
Get help, bro. What did those pine trees ever do to you?
Nah, Ikea is awesome; cheap and pretty damn solid for what you pay.
For me it's coffee, I drink it all day. Second it's probably soda pop, mainly Coke, usually drink Coke in between coffee. Can't go to long without something to drink, with diabetes I dehydrate fast.
I had a big issue with gambling back in a year. It was hard to get through this. That's why is really important to gamble safe. Some sites have such option and there are guys that always help you with all your questions for example with payments. for example I used paypal method. All questions about this you can check on https://depositpp.com
Depends how you define addiction. I’m dependent on narcotics physically, but I wouldn’t say I’m mentally addicted. I just don’t enjoy being dopesick.
To be honest I cant seem to stop gambling for some reason, it bugs the shit out of me. I also smoke cigarettes but I feel like I can give it up much easier then gambling
Tobacco. It completely annihilates stress but makes me complacent as hell. I might quit in the new year and spend the extra adrenaline on getting fit again. That's what got me over the hump in the past.
Coca Cola. I'll drink it for breakfast if it's in front of me. And I always get a kick out of the people who want to explain that I am addicted to the sugar or caffeine. It's like, no. I don't get the urge for Pepsi, Sprite, Crush, Root Beer, etc. Just coke.
If it wasn't for Covid - I was addicted to festivals. But at the moment stand up comedy particularly - Redd Foxx, Robin Harris, Earthquake, Chappelle, Attell + Burr
I love sneakers and fashion and also Battle rap as well - (Daylyt, Charlie Clips, Hollow Da Don + Rum Nitty).
