Very often our innocent addiction grows into a maniacal dependence. And it takes strange forms. So a pretty innocuous and useful lesson, like reading books, can ruin our lives. And dependence on sunburn and drugs have a detrimental effect on health.

Dependence on reading Psychiatrist Dr. Harold Levinson in his career encountered one of the most bizarre problems - an unhealthy love of reading. Such an inclination can result in the disease of the inner ear, as a result of which a person loses the ability to concentrate, he develops anxiety, unreasonable fear and even phobias.

However, after people recover, they start to read by drinking, because now the process becomes very simple and easy, and brings them a lot of fun. "People who are dependent on reading stop sleeping, as they spend almost all of their time at the book. Many even quit their jobs, "says Dr. Levinson.

Dependence on sunburn Bronze tan is, of course, beautiful, but everything is good in moderation. Tanorexia - this is the name of the dependence on sunburn. The obsessive need to be tanned leads to the fact that people spend the last money to visit the solarium and autosunburns.

Most of all, young women are susceptible to tanorexia, for whom the consequences of excessive enthusiasm for artificial sun can be the most deplorable.

Dependence on drops from the common cold Children, as you know, do not like to be treated and try in every possible way to avoid mustard plasters, tablets from cough and other medicines. With adults, the situation is somewhat different. Some people get used to drugs so that they use them, even when there is nothing to treat.

"I was addicted to drops in my nose about seven years ago," says the 33-year-old Katharine. The woman started using the medicine when she caught a cold, but the initial effect was so significant that Katarina continued to use the drops and after she recovered.

Now, if Katarina stops dripping into her nose, then he immediately "pawns". To get rid of addiction, doctors recommended that the woman immediately stop using drops, but so far with his passion Katarina can not cope.

Dependence on music Anthony listens to his iPod almost around the clock - at work and when at home watching TV. Boss and colleagues calmly treat this quirk Anthony, but his girlfriend already thinks that music for a young man is more important than the relationship.

Dependence on ice cream Hard to find a person who does not like ice cream. Someone prefers chocolate, someone creamy, but 51-year-old Susan loves fruit without sugar, and so much that eats up to 12 pieces a day. After four years of such an immense use of ice cream, Susan learned that her dependence is a clear sign of anemia, a disease characterized by a decrease in the number of red blood cells or a decrease in hemoglobin in the blood.
