No. Actually that's pretty normal. Most people know they are on a destructive path; they know what they are doing is wrong but they don't have a desire to stop because it's comfortable; they're used to it. It would be scary to want to stop because stopping would require them to change and change can be scary.

Don't stop if you don't want to stop. People who have good control over their addiction do not even have second thought whether they should stop it or not. They accept it and make it a part of their life without affecting their day to day activities. This is how you should be if you want to keep your addiction/fetishes or whatever.

It depends on what you don't want to stop. If it's self harm, gambling or anything else equally negative, then I'd say it's wrong and you need some support.

It's not wrong. Sometimes the things we do just become part of our lives, like a habit or even an addiction. Even though it might not be good for you, it can still feel hard to stop, or even not wanting to stop. It just takes time.

I don't think it's wrong to feel you don't want to stop. Stopping something that is a comfort to us is scary, so it's understandable that you wouldn't want to stop your safety net.

It's not "wrong", it makes sense if you are talking about some form of coping mechanism that has been a habit in your life for a while and proven to help comfort you even if it's just for a short moment. But it's often self destructive, like self harming, doing drugs, abusing alcohol or having eating disorders etc. And it's a dangerous thing to be addicted to because a part of you really don't want to stop.

It's not wrong to want to keep a hold of something you see as a security blanket. It is not health however to hold on to something that causes physical harm top of not truly solving the issue at hand.

It is only bad if you let it affect your day to day life. Relationships, work, sleep, etc. If it significantly impacts your day to day life. You might have a problem at your hands

Do you think what you are doing is wrong? Perhaps, if I knew what you are doing I could be more helpful.

Write out small daily goals. Complete them and congratulate yourself, and even if you don't, at least you tried. So don't feel self loathing. Self love is a huge factor depending on all your addiction/s. You don't have to want to stop. its not wrong. you're not in the wrong. Just be aware that you have a problem and that its not healthy. Try to reach those small goals you set out for yourself.
ex. .This mornings coffee break I will skip the cigarette
Today i will eat a healthy meal.
Today i will try to smile more.
If I get angry today I will not contribute to the situation.
I will use a less threatening/hurtful way to self harm if I'm triggered
Today I will try to stick to beer instead.
