Addiction is only called a disease so you feel better about paying a doctor to treat you.

In reality, there is no cure for being weak-willed.

Exactly. With no other disease, do you have a simple cure of "stop doing the thing that is making you sick." You can't cure AIDS by stopping anal sex. You can't cure lung cancer by stopping smoking. Addiction is really just about never learning how to consciously control your subconscious desires.

Constantly calling people "faggot" over and over again either means:

1. You're 11-years-old

2. You have confusion about your own sexual orientation and feel threatened and angry by it.


Go see a therapist or grow up asap!

If you knew anything about how addiction works in your brain, you would never associate addiction with being weak-willed.

You can call it a disease or not, that's up to you. I have my reserves to calling it a out right disease too. But saying that someone just needs to "man up and stop doing it, all it takes is will power" is about the most moronic thing you can say.

Before you even try to come back with some troll response, go look up how the brain works during addiction. Go learn how coping skills involve addiction. Go learn how your sub-conscience works with your frontal cortex. Go learn hedonic set points, receptors, how things like dopemine and leptin etc can all influence what you do without you even being able to control it. Go learn why group therapy works. And I mean the underlying issue.

I could care less if people consider it a disease or not. But to think addicts are just weak-willed people is completely false. No doctor, scientist, therapist (read: people who are much more educated in this) will ever say it's just a matter of willpower. That's just a social dogma that people use to justify being clueless about how addiction works.
