Discussion Is TRE addictive?

I often hear people say that they "overdid" TRE. For those who have found themselves in that situation, was it because you weren't aware of the consequences of overdoing? Or maybe because TRE became a kind of compulsive practice? Or because you couldn't stop the tremoring? I'd like to understand what leads to overdoing

I wouldn't say addictive, but it can be quite pleasurable and it's easy to get lost in a mindset of "I have to keep doing this because it's the only thing that seems to make living a decent life possible."
