Addiction is nothing more than an outward manifestation of psychological distress. ”
"Addiction is a recurring, hurtful, and difficult behavior to quit."
"We often ignore the hidden addiction in daily life, thinking that many things are just our own lifestyles and habits, not seeing the problems it brings to our lives, even if we are aware of the existence of problems, we feel that we cannot overcome them, which is addiction."
——Shen Jiahong, "Can't Stop at All"
