An addiction is something you want, but don't like or approve of. The good stuff is what you like and approve of.

I don't want to save humanity and don't like it, but I approve of it. I want to play games and like it, but I don't approve of it. I can't really think of any activity that meets all criteria, +wanting/+liking/+approving. What should I do?

Really? That seems... odd. Are there no healthy enjoyable activities that you want to do? Not even sex?

When I would explain wanting vs liking vs approving Sex was my go to example for an activity that fits all three.
