tanorexic

A person addicted to tanning; the disorder in which people may feel that they NEED to be tan.

Much like anorexia (the root word) tanorexic people are both mentally and physically addicted to tanning.

Physical addiction: UVA rays can give the feeling of euphoria or a natural "high" similar to the euphoric feeling experienced after exercising.
