It's not new at all. It's just something that some people see as "job security" and a way to get grants to study, imo.

Addictive personalities are just that. I've done other articles on this in the past, and to rephrase one part, it doesn't matter what it is: Golf, fishing, booze, games.... I think the issue is that it's happening to people at a younger age, which would tell me that they're seeing who has that type of personality earlier. This should be a flag to parents and they should find a way to help the kids while they have a chance, before it gets detrimental!
