Lets see. [/quote] I have a really bad addiction to fennel seeds, I am constantly chewing them unless I'm too lazy to go and get them from my kitchen. Sometimes when I crave them badly I look at picks and read info about them. I feel so crazy. But one thing that works for me is reading the harmful side affects that they can do to your body and that helps me crave them a lot less knowing that they can harm my health. [/quote]
Original Message
So I've been addicted to fennel seeds for a year and a half. I chew them when I'm surfing the net, reading a mag and almost always right after every meal. Chewing them somehow used to make me feel so good, so "right". Until I realized I'm an addict and I'm ruining my teeth and possibly compromising my health. 100-150 grams a day could very well cause nervous system damage in the longer run.
Trying to quit and it isn't easy, specially since I can't find any info on why I'm craving this particular substance so intensely and how to overcome it. I'm trying to resist the urge with lemon water. It works - upto a point.
Feels kinda weird though, I seem to be the only one out there with an addiction to fennel seeds. Of all things!
Dang.
