Re: Addiction is a disease?
Furthermore, I think in many studies, you may not be looking at a homogenous group. What way do you have of seperating real physical addicts from the types of sociopaths who flunk out of college because they played to much Xbox? I have met plenty of "alcoholics" in and out of AA who I realized had not experienced real physical dependence at all but had been diagnosed and participating in "recovery" more from social consequences (DUI's. etc.) then from physical suffering.
