You sound like you’ve never read a book in your life, so please continue to elaborate more about your knowledge of neuroscience.

This could be the worst thread ever.

A disease is commonly defined by three things:
1. Is it chronic?
2. Is it progressive?
3. Is it fatal if not arrested?
The answers regarding addiction are a resounding yes, yes and yes.
Don't argue with me. I'm a nurse who has worked in both trauma and addiction specialties and I guarantee that your knowledge of this subject is drastically inferior to mine.

It's a choice to go down that particular road in the first place.

See, this is exactly what I was talking about. She presented herself as a model of virtuous womanhood to trick Johnny into marriage.
She never dressed like this or went strutting around half naked like a trollop when Johnny was around.
If anything happens to him, it is her fault.

No, that is not always true. A large majority of addicts were placed on narcotics (opioids, benzodiazepines, barbituates, etc) for legitimate medical reasons and become addicted. Each individual has a biological set point for addiction (addiction includes alcoholism) and those that become addicted have a much lower set point where their use of the meds jumps the gap between what most ppl's set points are to what an addict's set point is. I could go into the physiological semantics of it but it would take up far too much room and most here wouldn't understand wtf it meant, anyway.

It may not always be true for the reasons you stated, but it is in Johnny's case.

I lived this life for nearly 20 years. I don't care if you're a nurse. I made a choice every time I got high. I knew exactly what I was doing.

“Alcohol ruined me financially and morally, broke my heart and the hearts of too many others. Even though it did this to me and it almost killed me and I haven't touched a drop of it in seventeen years, sometimes I wonder if I could get away with drinking some now. I totally subscribe to the notion that alcoholism is a mental illness because thinking like that is clearly insane.”

In other words, Bre Tiesi is a whore and Johnny got sucked in by trickery and she was his set point?

Some people are genetically predisposed to becoming addicted to certain drugs. I guess those people who get physically addicted to pain killers after major injuries chose that.
They choose to keep taking the pain meds after they no longer need them. Pain medicine is my biggest issue and it's a choice to not take them anymore even though I think about it and want to almost every day.

Sorry but I've seen far too many ppl die of this disease to find anything about it a joking matter or funny in the slightest.

We are all pretty stupid here and you seem really smart. I'm just trying to parse out what you have said because I, being barely able to understand your words, have to take it step by step.
Is it a good idea for a whore to trick a man dying with a terminal disease into marriage and then leave him heartbroken and sad?
That's all I was saying; it's all her fault that Johnny is drinking and using drugs again.

This is how I feel as well. I almost feel like it was labeled as a disease so that people's insurance would pay for treatment which allows these medical professionals to make more money.
You're exactly correct. Addiction is a money maker for everyone involved except the addict.

Your medical and pharmacy boards, as well as the DEA, would disagree. Narcotics are classified on a 5 schedule classification scale and all controlled substances (including benzos and barbituates and a host of other types of drugs such as adderall) are included within these classifications.
