No Pain, No Addictions

When we think of addictions we primarily think of drugs and alcohol but what about being addicted to negative thoughts? What about being addicted to pain?  Yes, people are addicted to pain, that's why they take pain killers in  the first place. If people weren't addicted to pain, they wouldn't need pain killers in the first place. Embracing the pain makes the pain disappear while resisting the pain makes it increase in power and intensity over you.
