I've CHOSEN To be Sober for over 3 Years Now!!!! So No, Addiction is Not a Disease
by D. Erickson
I have been an addict for half of my life. Every day I CHOSE to repeat that behavior regardless of the consequences. Although I strongly feel events in my childhood made it EASIER for me to turn to drugs and alcohol for escape - I have no one but myself to blame for repeatedly CHOOSING to partake in behavior in which I was fully aware of its potential for self destruction. No one force feed me booze or drugs. This is no different than cigarette smoking. (It has been 5 months since my last cigarette). By claiming addiction is a disease, the addict is cleared from all responsibilities to stop their destructive behavior. Heck, just buy them a drink, give them a clean needle and a pack of smokes!! Addiction is no more of a disease than enabling is. "Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% what you do about it" ~Charles Swindoll~
