:-) So you are meeting your almost addiction to Steemit and lessen your presence on the blockchain?
I understand, why. It really is time-consuming and I wonder whether I should follow you in that. It also got me on the hook. I am hoping for spring & summer when I will feel the next wave of me urging to leave the house and enjoy the outside world.
What I found interesting is what you said about the rational choice and that an addiction sometimes outweighs what harm it may cause. Yes, I can approve of that. I am addicted to hearing sounds of humans when I go to bed. As I live in a noisy city and have otherwise difficulties to fall asleep the voices of my "movie friends" lull me to sleep. It also may be that this reminds me being in the lap of my family (we were many).
Since I rationally admitted to myself that I chose this way of falling into sleep my guilt that I shouldn't do that, vanished.
Have a good weekend,

Hello my dear @erh.germany :)
I am glad you found the Rational Choice Model of Addiction an interesting one. It is controversial indeed, but I think it is mostly for those who are unable to put themselves in the position of the addict. Your need for hearing sounds of humans when you go to bed fascinates me as much as the explanation for it :D
I wish you a lovely Saturday.
All the best to you and to your family :)
