Absolutely.
You can be addicted to anything that can be repeated (Some easier then others).
Answer by carolinethefierce
Absolutely. Addiction is “being enslaved to a habit or practice or to something that is psychologically or physically habit-forming”. The “habit or practice” doesn’t necessarily have to be a substance.

Perscription Drug Addiction?
Question by Mark O: Perscription Drug Addiction?
[rewrite]How do you tell if someone has a prescription drug addiction? Is it similar to an illegal drug addiction? I have a loved one who I am very concerned about. They take prescription drugs for medical purposes. But they affect them the same way that illegal drugs affect others. They take 35 every day. They are a nurse. They can give a medical justification for every one of them. But the way they react at different times makes me wonder. Their emotions go up and down. They have the same reactions as a drug addict. Can someone give some advice on helping my loved one.
