I'm so addicted to cross stitch. I sit at my desk and think about it. I am considering quitting my job so I can stay home and cross stitch. I have got 4 to work on when I've finished the one I'm doing at the moment but it's still not enough. I'm trying to resist going on trademe to find more to buy. Is there a support group for this kind of thing? Can I go on the sickness benefit while I work through my issues (aka finish my cross stitches)?

I am that addicted to crochet! I'm glad I'm not alone. I think about it all the time. When I'm working, I wish I was crocheting. I have a gigantor stash of yarn in my closet. (That's where I store it, not where I hide it. lol I'm not afraid to admit I have a problem!) It must be releasing endorphins that keeps us coming back. Just know you're not alone. You should post some pics of the stuff you make. I'd love to see it. :)

Plus, more than anything, it seems to be one of the main "constants" in you changing life. Things like that tend to stabilize us.

I wonder if an addiction (especially if it is cross stitch, I can understand crochet) indicates a frustration elsewhere. Do you REALLY like your job???
