Addictive personality

Hi, my name is Jeff and I am an addict.

Oh God, this must be rock bottom...



Here, just replace the word "drinking" with "running". 

Alcoholism (Runaholic) Signs Self-Test:

1. In the last month, have you ran first thing in the morning to help recover from a previous run (hair of the dog that bit you)?

2. In the last year, have you ran while driving or have you driven while under the influence of running, even just a couple miles?

3. In the last 3 months, have you continued running until you passed out?

4. Are more than 50% of your friends runners?

5. Do you run more than 7 miles(runs/marathons) a week?

6. In the last 3 months, have you taken running to work to drink during your workday or chosen to skip a lunch because of running?

7. Do you hide your running from any friends or family? (i.e. create a separate FB page for running?)

8. Have you failed to keep a promise to yourself or a loved one that you would quit (or cut back) running?

9. Have you ever had trouble remembering what happened while you were running?

10. In the last year, have you done anything while running that you regret doing?

11. Do you find it difficult to stop after one or two miles(or marathons)?

12. In the last year, have you wet the bed or wet your pants during or after running?

13. Have you ever woken up after running in a strange place, or at home, but you don't remember how you got there?
