We have programs for alchohol, drugs, gambling, sex and even food but not drama. These are people that addicted to pain and drama and are unable to deal with happy and healthy relationships. It is like a drug because they know it is bad for them but they are comfortable in that pain and drama that they don't know anything else.

Nope. Codependents Anonymous is what you are referring to. A codependent exhibits excessive, inappropriate caretaking behaviors. This includes excessive excuse making, enabling, and passive-aggressive controlling behaviors.

 

Not the same as a drama addict, which one might label "histrionic personality disorder" (google it)

"Hi, I'm Steve and I'm addicted to drama."

 

"I don't think I like your tone."

 

"BITCH, DON'T JUDGE ME!!!"
