Is Blogging Addictive?

I came across a blog post the other day that said blogging was addictive.  The author actually described symptoms they had if they didn't blog every day.  In many ways to me it didn't sound like addictive behaviour but perhaps borderline OCD or boredom or just a bad habit.  I've never really thought about it.  I guess at some level blogging could be addictive but then most activities could become addictive.  I think it is all about maintaining perspective.

When I started blogging it was all about a new experience sharing what I know with others.  Now it is more about the sharing and keeping my readers happy.  My experience has been that blogging is an enjoyable experience and one I look forward to doing but certainly not addictive.  I have no problem not blogging for days at a time and when it comes to extended vacation periods I will work extra to make sure the blogs are tended to while I'm gone.  So for me blogging is just one of those things that I do at this point in my life when I have the time to do so.  At some time I will bid a fond fairwell to blogging with my mind full of good memories of my blogging days :)
