Chain of lies

Cascade reaction, positive feedback mechanism, some cliché phenomenon when one couldn’t retsrain himself doing something; results in him can’t stop doing things in short. Controlled by hormones, or even limbic system playing roles in emotion, blaming gene proteins, to put it as a whole it’s an absolute emotion we’re dealing with.

On such phenomenon, one would

Turned the mp3 into a ‘repeat one song’ mode
Reading mangas from one page to another
Playing games levels after levels
Keep on eating despite getting full for it feels so good
Refuse to keep eyes open wishing night would go on forever
Chain of lies though it hurt so much

Even so, major distinction is the reason why one put on such attitude

Imbalance hormones or emotion
Environment
Stress and pressure
Self-satisfaction
Simply being immature and ignorant
Revenge perhaps

One resulted event in genaral doesn’t necessarily caused by one basis.

Simple analogy;
Hyperthyroidism and insomnia both lead to fatigue.

Highlighting ‘fatigue’ as the event, and both ‘hyperthyroidism’ and ’insomnia’ and repective basis, to solve things, can’t simply prescribe antithyroid drugs to an insomnic or sleeping pills to a hyperthyroidic.

Different approaches are vital. For instance bacterial infection and viral infection need different prescription accordingly.

For argument sake the prescription privilege isn’t in your hand, still don’t take the diagnosis lightly.

For the subject, one got his own reason doing something; even if it appears stupid and unnecessary repeating the same thing over again, even if it makes you wonder why he keeps doing it for it cut him deep. Try to stop and stare, try to shut up and listen, try to observe and analyse. Was he doing it stubbornly or reluctantly? Somehow both ways, he needs to be saved before it’s too late.
