Is it possible that I have an addictive personality? I’ve had so many problems with different substances over this years, is it just down to how I was born?

We describe people as having an addictive personality because there are a set of traits that often go hand in hand with addiction, such as impulsiveness, a lack of control and low self-confidence.

If you can admit you have a problem, you can get to the root of it easier. Around 10 – 15 per cent of the adult population are estimated to have an addictive personality. It does mean you’re more likely to not treat something as just fun and let it control you.
