Can Recovering Addicts Become Addicted to the Recovery Process?

Question by Gal from Yellow Flat: Can recovering addicts become addicted to the recovery process?
My sister is attending NA classes and working on recovery from a drug addiction. All she talks about is her recovery and the process she is going through. Although we are very proud of her for taking charge of her life and getting off drugs, it seems as though she is addicted to her recovery. For years, the family revolved around her and her problems, and now it seems as though we are revolving around her healing process.

Answer by VStar Girl
Yes, for some life is about addiction in some form or another. At least this is a more positive one.
