Wow.

Addiction is a choice; you have to accept that the chance of getting addicted is part of taking the drug in question, whether you need the drug or not.

Sex without protection is also a choice.

>>132947208
addiction is a lack of willpower, integrity, and ambition.

As a recovering alcoholic with 5 years sober, I often hear at AA meetings that addiction is a disease, not a choice. But I think it's both. It took a lot of work for me to cross the line from hard drinker into full alcoholic. And before I crossed that line, I was choosing to be a degenerate who drank as much as I wanted, whenever I wanted, with no desire to stop or moderate my consumption.

Then, at some point, I became a full alcoholic and consequences started piling up, and I tried to stop but I couldn't, without help for forces outside of my own willpower. I believe the reason for this is because alcoholism so severely fucks up the reward system in one's brain that it enters into "disease" territory, which then requires treatment.

But make no mistake: I chose to drink like a degenerate for years and years before I became an alcoholic. Much like a guy with heart disease chooses to abuse his body with fatty foods for years and years.

>>132947208

>>132948591
It's really two different worlds between alcoholics and non-alcoholics. Alcoholics can't understand why anyone would want to stop after two beers. It's unfathomable. That's just when the party is getting started. In fact, alcoholics would rather have zero beers than two beers, because two beers is just a tease.

If alcoholism is a disease then so are other forms of addiction or obsessive behaviors which lead to negative consequences: gambling, overeating, promiscuity, laziness, financial illiteracy/negligence, shopping, excess television viewing, internet addiction, porn, racism, activism, liberalism, celery, etc. etc. etc.

I had a problem with booze and I managed to quit with a bit of help/nudging from the courts. That's it, I'm not a victim of a disease.

Handle yourself. Fuck off.

Here's the thing: alcoholism can be induced in mice, and it gets to the point where the mice will "choose" alcohol over food. Except you can't really say that they are choosing, as such, because mice don't have free will and are driven entirely by instinct and biological imperative.

The fact that an alcoholic mouse will drink itself to death rather than eat food demonstrates that alcohol has some kind of re-wiring effect on the primitive parts of the brain that handle reward.

Most people are sex addicts during their adult life and dumb decisions like infidelity (and getting STDs) occur because of it.

Drug/alcohol addiction is the same concept. If you have sex for nonprocration putposes, then you're doing it to get high and are just as degenerate as someone who uses drugs.

>Sorry it's my CHOICE to not have sexual relations with the gay community so I will enjoy not catching any DISEASE ya prick

Addiction does have a huge genetic Component to it.

>>132947208
yes, being promiscuous is a choice, not using protection is a choice, STD's are a choice... unless niggers are involved.

His analogy fails because STDs are... transmitted through sex from one party to another.

Addictions aren't transmitted. An alcoholic can't impart his addiction to someone else.

Addicition is a self fueling coping mechanism, that starts with a choice. It is less of a desease, and more of a high probability risk that one takes upon using drugs young or frequently.

Thing that is sad, addicts tend to be those who started young and didn't straighten up, but the pharma world is really changing the game. People are so weak these days, and sometimes the medication does develop that habit. They may be weak, but most people aren't intellegant enough to consider risk if a doctor if they are told to take medication. It's not that it isn't a problem that they are being morons, but it's becoming common. It's a complex issue really.

Alcoholics genetically pass a genetic predisposal to their offspring to be alcoholics.

As an alcoholic in recovery, I can honestly say that I agree 100%.

t: 18 months dry & in recovery.

Recovery memes are usually cringeworthy shit that scares off "earth people" as I call them. "Earth People" don't care or want to know about steps and traditions.....It is really best to explain it like that.

I explain it like a diabetic. Sure they'd love to eat that cake, but they'd love to keep their legs more. I don't drink because it makes me forgetful and I lose things too.... like my jobs and friends.

>>132948050
You would be surprised of how many non crusty vaginas nowadays will give you full blown STDs.

>>132951838
>Alcoholics genetically pass a genetic predisposal to their offspring to be alcoholics.
A big part of the "ism" is behaviors. Some people can be addicted, but not be what I would call "alcoholic". There are very few people who can do that....Sure it kills them the same, but at least they are not stark raving lunatics every night......Or no one knows?

>>132951838
No they don't.

Addictive personality disorder can be genetically passed on, but not specific to one single addiction.

--- The A1 allele of the dopamine receptor gene DRD2 is more common in people addicted to alcohol or cocaine.

--- Mice with increased expression of the Mpdz gene experience less severe withdrawal symptoms from sedative-hypnotic drugs such as barbiturates.

--- Mice without the cannabinoid receptor gene Cnr1 are less responsive to morphine.

--- Mice lacking the serotonin receptor gene Htr1b are more attracted to cocaine and alcohol.

--- Mice bred to lack the β2 subunit of nicotinic cholinergic receptors have a reduced reward response to cocaine.

--- Mice with low levels of neuropeptide Y drink more alcohol, whereas those with higher levels tend to abstain.

--- Fruit flies mutated to be unable to synthesize tyramine remain sedate even after repeated doses of cocaine.

--- Mice mutated with a defective Per2 gene drink three times more alcohol than normal.

--- Non-smokers are more likely than smokers to carry a protective allele of the CYP2A6 gene, which causes them to feel nausea and dizziness from smoking.

--- Alcoholism is rare in people with two copies of the ALDH*2 gene variation.

--- Mice lacking the Creb gene are less likely to develop morphine dependence.
