Re: Addiction is a genetic, physical problem in the brain. Not a high BAC.
[quote name="Mysterio"][quote name="Medicine, SOLVED FOREVER"]It's just as facile for you (or someone else) to say "If you're addicted you should stop!" as it is for me to mock that idea by saying "If you have cancer, don't!". If it were that easy then it'd work. We are surrounded by evidence that it doesn't.[/quote] I really think this is bogus. I know a lot of people with addictions who did just stop. Some of them have highly structured plans to stay abstinent, others don't. But I have heard several independently formulated versions of the same basic narrative: "I got better when I realized that the first step of getting better was choosing not to get high." [/quote]
