It not an addiction, now give me more!

Greeting again.
Over the years that I have been collecting and watching anime, I've noticed a few things.
1. I get into trouble less.
2. I don't go out drinking as much.
3. I'm more in touch with my feelings (or acknowledge that I have them).
4. I have no money.
5. If I have money, I'll umm and ahh about how much I need for food and how much I can spend on Anime,
6. If I haven't purchased new (to me) Anime for a month or so, I start to develop shaking in my hands and I lose focus on what happening around me.

This makes me believe anime is actually some form of anti-drug. I cant afford alcohol or other substances, because I'm hopelessly addicted to Anime!
