Have you treated your crossdressing as an addction?

[Taylor186]

Could the adverse case not be made that maybe the SO is addicted to an image of what her partner should look like and be suffering from withdrawal when that addiction is not fed?

The short answer is no. That is not how addiction/withdrawal mechanisms work. But more broadly, this seems like just another way to assign to blame the SO/wife for having problems with our crossdressing. I've seen this idea, and variations of it, posited here many times in the past and I find it truly cringe worthy. The SO/wife is almost never the root issue when it comes to our crossdressing.
