PERSONAL EXPERIENCE

Describing the Psychological Harm

This page summarizes a community-reported personal experience. It is not medical evidence or professional advice.

Many community posts use the word ‘addiction’ to describe their experience. Self-perception of addiction is a real experience, and it is distinct from a clinical diagnosis. The scientific status of the term is covered separately on this platform’s knowledge base.
