    Even if you had a problem with laziness, having an addiction to laziness is likely to lower one’s self-worth.
    The ADDICT in this case, is someone who doesn’t have the ambition to do anything. If they do, it is usually to roll out of bed, throw on a jacket over sweatpants (that they slept in the last 2 nights), and drive to the store for cigarettes or to McDonalds for a Big Mac. They lack the “want-to” or desire to do anything more than nap or rest.

    They over exaggerate their need for “getting some rest.” If the person is truly lazy, then they most likely don’t work, if they do, they won’t for very long.
     
     
     

    3 Symptoms of Laziness as an Addiction
    1. Depression

    Cheese              Reply to this Comment
    I have found that if you don't want to be lazy you should eat alot of cheese. You will fart so much that you will not be able sleep.

    the greatest cure for addiction is found in God's mercy and love. seek him for freedom, it works. It worked for me


    Me too              Reply to this Comment
    It is when i found jesus that i too began to eat excess amounts of cheese and i too was unable to sleep because i farted so much. Jesus is in everything, especially my farts, because everyone says halleluya everytime i let one go.

    Addiction To Laziness              Reply to this Comment
    I do not smoke. I get normal amount of sleep 8 hours a night. I am not depress. I am however happily unemployed. I never want to do anything, but sit in front of my computer and downloaf porn with no attentions to ever watching any of it and playing World of Warcraft though all I do it set in the city a bitch over trade chat with other players. I am addicted to celebrity gossip so much so that I run my own blog, but I never update it. There's actually so more I can tell you, but meh. Too lazy!

    Addicted to watching shows/ movies              Reply to this Comment
    I have a fear I'm unable to name but I know it prevents me from doing my readings or writing essays on time. I'm not only a procrastinator, I have recently upped the anti and have actually failed a full year course due to my inability to bring myself to ask for help in looking at the word processor to write. Everytime I see it I divert to another activity. My vice is online shows and movies. That's all I do as soon as I get home. I get this feeling of distraction and I'm happy, or at least not stressing about a stupid essay. I don't know if its a fear of accomplishment, or a fear of my work being judged and graded. The worst has happened already and a professor massacred one of my essays, perhaps she my lack of attention to detail pissed her off and she was taking out a little revenge on me. But I believe my fear of essays started when a guy from school tricked me into writing an essay for him, and when I didn't want to do it he called me and harassed me and acted like I was responsible if he failed and that I owed him. I don't know why I felt guilty, I just wanted him to stop harassing me. I think, I think I honestly felt raped and forced to do something I didn't want to do for him. I never felt the same way about essays. It wasn't a place to present my brilliance and ability with words and ideas, it was a place of judgement and cruelty. It's almost like a monster lives in my word processor and I can't bring myself to face him. I don't enjoy writing any more, and writing used to be a massive pleasure for me. He took that away from me, my power gone because I feel so guilty as I felt responsible and yet so stupid for the part I played for him and against myself. Why did I cave and let him use me like that. He didn't have a gun to my head, he didn't have anything but his ability to play on my good will and desire to be helpful. He hurt me so much and I can never write the way I used to, I feel a sort of cold detached approach to essays and writing. Like I'm trash and I will never be a good writer. I feel used, and I feel like I'm no good anymore. It really does feel like he raped me in a way, and yet I can't name my fear. Is it laziness? Is it a fear of failure? or fear of accomplishment? I don't think I ever think about him unless I choose to remember as it doesn't haunt me consciously. But he's there in the back of my mind, along with a past version of me abusing me for ever helping him, for succumbing to his pleads for me to do his work. I did tell on him, but I don't think they ever did anything about it. They just said that I had to trust them that they would do something about it. I hate him for what he did, and yet he doesn't think he did anything wrong. He used me and he says if he hadn't he wouldn't of passed the course and so its all good for him. I wanted so bad to hurt him back, and yet I feel unable to, like I just can't. The violation has left me unable to defend myself against him because of my shame for letting him persuade me, for doing what I did.
