I’ve never seen a jhana junkie for myself, but I’d be surprised if they didn’t exist. I’m using the word “addictive” to refer to the results of a mental process that does not include jhana junkies. “Jhana junkie” is, I believe, one of many failure modes, but I believe jhana junkies do not technically constitute “addiction”, because they have a different root cause.
Clarification time.
