cont.- So many addicts truly want to quit and most hate their addictions. AA or 12 step programs works for some, not for others. Each addict is different. ? We need to end this so called “War on Drugs” and end the stigma of addiction. If you commit crimes then you should of course be punished for THE CRIME and not the addiction. Personal responsibility is still part of the recovery process. Why is possession of an oz. of cocaine worse than possession of a quart of whiskey? End the stigma!
Addiction IS a disease. I’ve fought various addictions throughout my 52 years. I currently counsel and pray with addicts, ex-addicts, convicts and ex-convicts. One side of my family has a variety of addicts and ex-addicts. “Addictive” personality is very real. I studied to be a certified counselor and learned an awful lot about addiction in general. What was most interesting was that? so much of what I was studying I already knew from personal experience and experiences of family members.
