How Does Addiction Begin? (Part Two -of The Cycle of Addiction)
Is a person genetically or bio-chemically predisposed to addiction or alcoholism?
Various postulates along such lines have been put forward over the years and debated within the scientific and chemical dependency communities. That this has produced no truly effective solution to drug addiction, VERY poor recovery rates and a WORSENING drugs epidemic tells us the aforementioned communities may have been barking up a very wrong tree.
Another school of thought and another wrong tree, advocates the “disease concept” of drug addiction, which postulates that addiction is an inherited disease and the individual is permanently ill at a genetic level.
In other words, “nothing can be done about it”
