@Swallow33 🤣 i did it too. So, no advice.
ADDICTION: a disease or a choice?
-
@Bonnibel I don't think they have a choice once they're an addict, so yeah maybe it becomes a disease then. but it also depends on what type of addiction it is, I guess.
-
@emilyyyyy i followed you
-
@linhaha what kinds of addictions do you consider choices and diseases?
-
@emilyyyyy So ultimately they get to choose to continue the addiction or put efforts to change it, but mentally its a disease? is this what you mean or am I confused? 😂
-
@Bonnibel yaa kinda. i think it is a mental and physical disease because your body and your mind can be addicted. but if you want to recover you have to want it and work for it so you can cure it. and if you want to do that is your choice
i hope you understand what i mean
-
@Bonnibel idk. all of them, maybe?
-
its both i think, hobby is just like addiction and when you always doing that thing you cant stop it and it turn into disease or vice versa
-
actually all things and stuff you is possible if its too much it may led to addiction and disease
-
@Bonnibel both
-
@Bonnibel It starts as a bunch of choices, conscious or not. And then gradually, the person might become so accustomed or so dependent that it becomes a disorder.
Personally, addiction better be called a disorder than a disease, though. -
@Bonnibel
smoke weed Everyday
🙏 -
@Bonnibel it's a disease!!
-
@GreyWind I've never heard it be categorized as a disorder before but I think that is actually a smart label :)
-
@Bonnibel
Helplessness and Loneliness lead To bad Choices Which turns into Addiction 🙁....
-
@Sam770 Yeah they typically originate from bad mental states :(
-
@Bonnibel Awww are you Addicted to something 🙁
-
@Bonnibel well I think once it becomes a habit, it'll be harder to break it down.
-
@Sam770 lmao no but I used to smoke weed and drink alcohol when I was feeling low 😂 I never let myself get addicted because I've seen what it can do to people :(
-
@GreyWind Yeah, which makes sense. Even something like coffee. People that drink coffee every morning cant go a day without it or they will start to actually experience withdrawals. It becomes a mental and physical challenge
-
@Bonnibel The boundaries seem to diminish where habits end and addiction starts or maybe they're the same thing. :)
Made me wonder when habit and addiction overlap and where they separate. lol, that made me make a different post after reading yours. 😅😄
