I think Amaber is a full blown addict. A lot of people seem to think she doesn’t wanna get thin, but I think she desperately want it but she can’t give up her drug of choice.
Here’s some physical signs of addiction:
An inability to stop using: In many cases, such as a dependence on nicotine, alcohol, or other substances, a person will have made at least one serious but unsuccessful attempt to give up. This might also be physiological, as some substances, such as heroin, are chemically addictive and cause withdrawal symptoms if a person stops taki
Use and abuse of substances continue despite health problems: The individual continues regularly taking the substance, even though they have developed related illnesses. For example, a smoker may continue smoking after the development of a lung or heart disease. They may or may not be aware of the health impact of the substance or behavior.
Dealing with problems: A person with addiction commonly feels the need to take the drug or carry out the behavior to deal with their problems.
Obsession: A person may become obsessed with a substance, spending more and more time and energy finding ways of getting their substance, and in some cases how they can use it.
