Edicted for addicted.

Not posting as an eggcorn, because it’s a long-shot, though there may be the slight possibility of eggcornism.

“I met this product first when I was in Barbados on a holiday. From that moment on I became edicted.”

Probably just a spelling error, though I think there is a very slight possibility of an eggcorn, if the person is thinking of an edict, a mandate to use the product. An addiction could feel like an edict.
