It Is Not the Disease of Drug Addiction, It Is the Disease of Addiction

It's not the disease of drug addiction, it's the disease of ADDICTION. When I was in an active addiction, even as a hardcore addict, I never believed addiction was a disease. After all, I made the choice to use drugs for the first time, like so many of us. Which is most often the argument made by non believers. However, when I made the choice to work on my recovery, I realized I am not just a drug addict... I am an ADDICT. The drug addiction is not the disease. It's the disease of ADDICTION. Dis-ease of the mind. Dis-eased thinking.
