Zeraph, have any hobbies? Any passions? Anything you have to tear yourself away from?
At what point does anything become an addiction, and when do the problems outweigh the benefits?
I don't drink the coffee I did in my 20's. I can't drink after 7pm if I want to get to sleep, while back then I lemented the Stanford area coffee shops closing at 11pm. Then again, I haven't slept on a cubicle floor in 15years which could itself be called recovery.
Everything in moderation.

There are a vast number of people who are uninformed and heavily propagandized, but fundamentally decent. The propaganda that inundates them is effective when unchallenged, but much of it goes only skin deep. If they can be brought to raise questions and apply their decent instincts and basic intelligence, many people quickly escape the confines of the doctrinal system and are willing to do something to help others who are really suffering and oppressed." -Manufacturing Consent: Noam Chomsky and the Media, p. 195
