John Mayer Has An Ego Addiction!

John Mayer sat down with Entertainment Tonight to discuss his diagnoses of Ego Addiction. 

The Room for Squares singer openly talks about leaving Twitter and any other social media because of it. He confirms he gets high off of all the compliments. The accolades he says makes him a different person. John openly admits that he can’t handle it.

I’m a recovered ego addict, and the only way that I can be sure that I don’t relapse is to admit that I constantly have this ego addiction—every day.

I go to the Grammy’s and then I go home, because if I stay I will get high again.

In 2010 John Mayer left Twitter due to his addiction but then returned in 2014. In the interview he said he had to come off the network again because it was affecting his progress.

Mayer also talked about being more private about his relationships due to social media. John has been linked to major celebs like Katy Perry, Taylor Swift, and Jennifer Aniston.

The Paper Dolls singer said to Entertainment Tonight “it hurts when someone misunderstands you and calls you a womanizer.” Then when the reporter asked him directly was he a womanizer he quickly denied.

I am not sure what to make of an ego addiction but at least he is honest. Mayer is living quietly in Montana away from the hollywood bright lights. He finds it to be calmer and better for his addiction issues.

Do you all think it is physically possible to be addicted to compliments? I do understand the feeling of appreciation when someone notices that you are good at something or you look nice but to be high from it? This is interesting.
