What are your signs of DDR addiction?
I think I am addicted to DDR because:
I have shortcuts to this site on my desktop... I want my college kid to get home soon so I have somebody to play doubles with and give me more coaching tips... I start sleeping bad and get really bad-tempered when I skip it 3 days in a row... I have DDR songs on my iPOD and play them in my car to get energized for my corporate-type job... I send my husband downstairs so I can play --- for 1-2 hours at a time!... I run to the TV to see what commercial is playing a DDR song...
But the most painful evidence of my DDR addiction is this: I heard Phil Collins' "Against All Odds" on the radio and wondered what the **** he was doing singing that DDR song.....

I knew I was addicted when I would play DDR for hours at a time to relieve stress.
I cannot wait to get home so I can try to pass Delerium on expert
I spent 375 on a colbalt, lol.
I have to play DDR if I see it at a mall or arcade or something.
I have mostly all the DDR and ITG songs on my computer and listen to them whilst at work.
I know, I'm corney, but these are all true for me, lol.

I'll just post my response from the "how obsessed are you" from DDRFreak :-P
How obsessed am I? I have... A DDR Tattoo Every OST Every DDR game starting from the PS1/DC mixes JPN and US 7 DDR/ITG shirts, each with different designs Various DDR merchandise, hats, headbands, wristbands... ect. Large diet cokes everyday at Hardees to hoard the Ex 2/UM 3 cups Having a "Support DDR" sticker on the van Buying a Cobalt Flux Passing my love of the game onto my kids
Fun fun times I'll remember forever.

Hmm... I own 5 dancing games. I built my own metal pad. My initials are on the high scores at the arcade machine at least 25 times. I own a DDR t-shirt. I made a DDR movie about a plant. I dance every single day. I bought a PS2 for the sole reason of being able to play ITG. I've spent over $1400 on DDR related stuffs. I listen to DDR/ITG songs on my MP3 player at the gym... and sometimes for fun. I'm a mod on a DDR forum. I refuse to date a guy unless he DDRs with me. He doesn't even have to be good. He only has to try it once

okay -I own 9 DDR games and 1 ITG -I too have a DDR t-shirt -highly considering the tattoo -take pictures of scores I'm proud of -randomly filled with overwhelming joy when I see arcade machines and consequentially run and hug them. -I post on this forum....a lot. -I've flown across the country to meet my fellow ddr players -I took ddr to a family chistmas party and forced people to play it -I have step patterns memorised to the point where I tap them out on my palm when I hear the music - one of my favorite cd's in my car is my ddr mix -other stuff

well I have only really started a few months ago but:
have looked high and low for DDR aparel (no real luck so far)
have an image galery of my high scores on my computer
cant help but move my feet to the step patterns when I hear a DDR song (even if I get one stuck in my head)
I can watch the step pattern for sakura just by closing my eyes
see and play syndrome (if I see it, I must play it)
insadentaly if any of you have knowledge of where I can procure some DDR aparel I would be most interested in hearing about it, I know about the stuff on DDRfreaks.com but its not really what I am looking for. I found a local shop that will do screen printing and I can get six shirts made for 60 dollars canadian but I dont know if that would be a copyright infringement or not.
anyways best wishes all.

Today I admit to another sign of DDR addiction. You know you are addicted to DDR when:
You wake up in the morning thinking about the steps to Xepher and think "that combo will work better if I start it on my left foot instead of my right" and then you roll out of bed to try it before you even get dressed......and it works.

That's hilarious, I used to be like that 5 years ago, I would see arrows go by in my sleep and I saw the pattern to Sana Molette and figured out a new way to step it and it worked. Funny stuff, fortunately the better I get the less I think about anything, sometimes I just see a jumble of arrows on the screen and freak out thinking what am I going to do, just to find out that I managed to somehow combo them all, I think my eyes and feet have a direct connection now.
