That's a good point. I guess I have an issue with labeling psychological addictions to specific things then as I dont think it's so much the "this thing" that's addicting as it's something that you've psychologically latched onto.

Treating a generalized psychological addiction seems like it would be pretty straightforward in terms of treating vs a chemical or physiological addiction. But I'm not a therapist, and I'm sure there is a great reason as to why these things are labeled the way they are. Apologies for my stubbornness on this subject.
