Where's The Chap Stick, Where's The Chap Stick?

I really enjoy chap stick/ lip balm (whatever you want to call it). I'm not sure why, I was always an avid fan of the classic Lip Smackers when I was younger; I had at least over 30 different kinds. But luckily I am not a crazy person who is literally addicted to chap stick. But what about the people who aren't so lucky? I can't imagine what it would feel like to be addicted to something so strongly it would affect my life and the people within it. The show Hoarders and that other show about weird addictions such as eating candles, came to mind when I thought of this. It's strange to think that these people are ultimately powerless to their own demands and minds if they do not get help. It's a bit of a scary thought to think about if you ask me. It's like being your own worst enemy. No one is forcing them to like the things they like, it's their own mind. To me, this is one of the scariest things. It's one thing to be presented with a problem from someone else. I could easily fix it or avoid it. However, addictions seem so much scarier because they are in the mind; a virtually escapable place. Those with addictions cannot just decide to leave the addictions and continue their lives ignoring it. It's with them everywhere if they don't get help. I don't know, this just seemed like a scary thought to me.
