Habit:
Habits are something you do regularly and often on autopilot.
They develop over time and, with repetition, usually become an unconscious part of your day-to-day routine.
Addiction:
Addictions can look like habits in that they involve regular behaviours often done on autopilot.
Addictions are more complex because they also involve physiological and/or psychological needs as drivers.
By definition addictions always have negative consequences - on your health, finances, relationships, or self-esteem.
So.. Similar but one requires a psychological or physiological need to repeat or continue the behaviour..
Like its a habit we all play the game, but its an addiction that people always see others having fun and want to ruin said fun.
