In reply to Addiction/Anhedonia-- is it meds working or nothin, posted by inanimate peanut on February 15, 2010, at 20:02:44
I know your addiction is not as serious as this (you might want to tell people so they don't assume the worst), but a bell just went off in my head as I remembered that Mirapex has been known to cause gambling and sex addiction in some people. It wouldn't surprise me that it could cause other addictions too. Since you just started taking it, I think it's important to tell your doc about your new obsession. It may very well be an unwanted side effect of the drug. You might want to consider lowering your dose or stopping before it gets more out of hand.
