It never happened to me, Paris.

Okay, in my teens and twenties, I was pretty obsessed with smoking weed and, looking back, that did limit my options for socializing. I was still acting like a high schooler.

And when I was 37, I had a 30 year old girlfriend who was hypersexual and orgasmic. We lived together for over a year. I can say that I was as addicted to her as a lifetime alcoholic is to booze. When we separated, it was like going cold turkey. It took me a year to pull myself together and move ahead with life.

It's possible but it's never happened to me.

Amy10223 · Answer

A passion for something shouldn't turn into an obsession, mainly because with an obsession that is all you think about. You don't live for anything but thew obession and it eats your time--which is not ideal. You should be able to have a passion for something and continue to enjoy other life endeavors. Obessions have a negative connotation--passions do not. Taking care of elderly people and animals who can't care for themselves is one, cooking is a passion of mine, and art is another. These don't take precedence over other things that I enjoy.

I hope it does. I want the toxic tortured artist life where I throw all that I am into something until it ruins me. I want the same drive ballerinas have that allows them to wreck their feet so they can pursue their art. I want the same drive that high end career people married to their job have that ruins their families. Nothing would give me more joy than that.

I used to be passionate about running. I had too many injuries and now i have a fake hip so I cannot do it anymore. Every time I see somebody running I get pissed.

Yes it can. With some people their passion becomes an addiction. Usually though it is just a serious hobby.
