What Kind of “addiction” Can My Main Character Have?

Question by Amber: What kind of “addiction” can my main character have?
In my book I need the main male character to have some sort of addiction or something to keep the story line interesting. One of the characters already has an alcohol addiction so we can’t use that…I’ve tried to think of other things such as pills or something but I don’t know a whole lot about pill/medication addiction. I’ve even considered bi-polar or depression but I’m just not sure. Any suggestions?? Hit me with anything you have :]
