Golf Addiction

Before playing golf as much as I do these days, I've heard this term (golf addiction) and thought to myself 'how ridiculous'. Now I think I am experiencing it. It's been almost a couple weeks since my last round and now I'm very eager to get back out. Anyone else experience such a thing? If so, is this a widespread thing, or should I be contacting a shrink?

It's not normal. You should immediately send all of your golf clubs and golf balls to me to prevent another outbreak.

I'll be sure to 'dispose' of the equipment appropriately.

Yes, it is a widespread thing. It's so bad, you've even registered on a golf forum to talk about it.

I don't think you need to contact a shrink though. We can all be your support group. I don't know how much help we'll be though b/c most of us probably have the same problem you have!
