"Addictive behavior" is a PC way of saying the truth, which is : its a disease. Depending on which substance u abuse because of the disease, the results vary.

My uncle was a chain smoker and on his last breath in the hospital (Canada) he asked for a cig.. My cousin who is a nun in the hospital.. (of course this is back in 50's) shut of the oxygen and lit up a cig for him. It was his last breath.. I mean you hear stories like that but hard to believe.... but true.

You know the routine.. it starts with one.. then whole hell breaks loose.. addiction is very tough to over come.. cig, booze, sex.. g
