Thoughts On Addiction

It occurred to me as I was finishing Tweak, that we all come across some sort of addiction during our lifetime. In some way or another, everyone deals with addictive behavior at some point. Many individuals believe those who use drugs are reckless and selfish individuals who should simply stop using said substances. I, however, believe addiction is a disease which is hard to be cured of. No matter how long you have been clean, you have forever earned yourself the label ‘addict’. It’s a sad and horrible thing, but we all face addictions. Human habit is a difficult thing to overcome.
