>>688769689

Withdrawal isn't a disease. It's a symptom of overusing a substance that the body craves because YOU decided to fuck your dopamine and endorphin levels up.

Magically cured with.... TIME. Wow. Amazing. Just wait out your faggot flu, and eat some butterfingers.

I've been to prison, I have smoked crack for months on end, and stopped with no issues, because it was all in my head. I've seen heroin addicts stop cold turkey, and I've seen some who need methadone every day.

It's not a disease if you can pick and choose whether or not to have it by taking chemicals.

>addiction

Numerous studies on brain activity and neural pathways in addicts vs. non addicts as well as genetic twin studies clearly support a medical/neurological component to addiction. That's really not up for debate anymore.

Depression and ADHD I'm not as familiar with (have had lot's of formal schooling on addiction) but from what I've researched, there is a clear component to both of these conditions being physical/neurological disorders as well - although they are severely over-diagnosed, in my opinion. The number of people who truly suffer from Major Depressive Disorder and ADHD are far less than the number of people who claim to.

Bro, alcohol is TOUGH. I would say harder than the heroin I mentioned in the post I posted.

That's the problem with addiction treatment. Not everyone who needs it gets it and vice versa. Hard to differentiate between a mild substance use disorder and a severe one. Just because you did it that way, though, doesn't mean others are capable of the same. For some people, total abstinence is the only way to go. It's all in how the brain responds to the drug.

Smoking crack for months on end and stopping with no issues?

I'm not contesting the claim that someone can stop cold turkey, but to claim that life just went on as normal afterwards with absolutely no ill effects afterwards? Yet "withdrawal" is fucking "your dopamine and endorphin levels up". The receptors for those don't just magically go back to normal when you consciously decide not to use drugs anymore, and when they're not at normal levels, you experience withdrawal symptoms. It's not a matter of just wanting it really badly.

Exactly. Cancer is cancer. Addiction depends on how much willpower you have. It's made up. You break a bone, they do an XRay, they patch you up. You have cancer, they do an MRI and a biopsy, boom.

How do you diagnose something that is intangible? You can't, hence there is no way to call that a disease. Being a pussy is an evolutionary failure, not a trait, and certainly not a disease.

>Addiction depends on how much willpower you have.

Completely incorrect. Addiction depends on your unique neural pathways, and how hijacked your reward/pleasure response has become due to the chemical interfering with the limbic system. It varies from person to person - it isn't intangible - it lies within the mind, PHYSICALLY within the mind. It meets the medical criteria for what constitutes a disease, even though you may not like the term. Call it a disorder or whatever if it makes you feel more comfortable. I've studied this shit for awhile now, not trying to sound like a dick, but I know what I'm talking about.

Watched it and lived it - especially the AA episode of bullshit. That episode was a joke - I actually wrote a paper on it, haha. They cherry pick research studies with flawed methodology and fail to address the complexity of addiction - they also got one of the very, very few professionals who would claim addiction is not a disease - that doesn't mean she was correct.

I'm not going to attempt to cram 6 years of schooling into my response here - just know that I've spent countless more time than you studying the subject and working with addicts professionally. I'm not a psychiatrist and a believe medication should be a last resort, by the way. I will take my educational and professional experience over your youtube videos - particularly the one made by a couple of libertarian magicians. (although I am a fan of them overall).

Now that is some edgy shit.

And the way you guys defend your claims i guarantee you have a type of condition/dissirder too.

Addiction is very real, it's more in how you deal with the addiction.
I self-harmed for years, and as a lot of people do developed an addiction to it.
And one day I just decided to stop. Got rid of everything sharp in the house to take away the temptation. Do I still want to do it every day? Of course. But I have the willpower to not.
Some people just don't have the willpower to stop and stay stopped with their addictions.

you're a moron. using drugs alters brain chemistry and hjacks the survival circuit pathways. some addicts have a compulsion to use and they literally cannot stop without serious treatment and intervention. in studies there have been monkeys that would choose cocaine over water or food until they had literally died. no such thing as addiction though, right.

Addiction exists read a fucking book its literally an allergy. An addicts brain after taking a drug increases the amount of receptors to accomodate for the extra chemicals like seratonin and dopamine, as to where a regular persons brain doesnt build those extra receptors if it takes drugs. It just freaks their brain out and thats it. The addict brain off of drugs is producing the regular amount of chemicals but there are too many receptors so the brain isnt registering the chemicals its getting as being enough and makes you crave drugs because it needs those extra chemicals to balance it out and feel normal again. Eventually with time sober those extra receptors disappear but it takes time. Regular brains dont function the same way. They dont produce extra receptors. They dont get cravings. Addiction is real

>>688774959

Were they making shit up? If you lie to someone, they're going to make decisions based on the information you give them. But someone can't get in your body, turn the keys and rev the engine to get a feel for how the engine is running in a make and model that should be identical to thousands of others just like it.

And, based on your claim of people being different, maybe what is normal for you is not normal for me. If my body doesn't produce enough of a chemical, and not having enough of said chemical causes depression, and taking an SSRI repairs that balance, that sounds like a disease and a medical treatment, to me.

see what you and others who believe addiction isn't a disease dont under stand one thing. not everyone who does heroin gets high, not everyone drinks alcohol to get drunk, not everyone who does crack feels like superman.

only about 10% of the population gets high and experiences adverse affects. normal people who do opiates dont get energy and feel great, they get tired, itchy, they may puke, but they dont feel the way a heroin addict feels. the 10% who experience drugs in this way are having an allergic reaction to the drug.

Imagine being in love with strawberries, you eat them all day every day for years, then one day you develop an allergy and if you even touch them you start to swell up so you definitely cant eat them. but then you say oh well ill have one more.

this 10% is missing something in there brains that that the drug of choice will balance out to a degree and make you require it, and you use it until you develop and addiction and will go through WD if you dont have it.

the 90% who dont have this allergic reaction will almost never do a drug to the point of Withdrawal because their brain wont tell them to get more and more until its too late.

I was on opiates for 9 months due to a shoulder injury and surgery. I could take 5 Norco10 at a time and not even feel it. They kept changing the opiates because they'd quit working after a few days. I finally just stopped taking the stuff with no bad effects.

>>688778166
There has been more than sufficient evidence.

My personal theory on why people deny mental illness is because they don't want to believe that some people are blameless for their mentality. They want to believe that because they are ok, or that they struggled with negative emotions and made it through without treatment, that everyone else should be able to do the same. They like feeling superior to people who don't - not willing to believe that they physically can't.

It's a classic example of people being blinded by their own perceptions of reality - unable or unwilling to see life through the perspective of others.

This is so true - just look at all the anecdotes from people like that in this thread. Most of them are along the lines of "they said I was an addict/depressed/bi-polar BUT I stopped being a pussy/manned up/used willpower, etc."

They don'rt undertstand that not all mental illnesses are of the same severity. Hell, even cancer can go into spontaneous remission, just like mental disorders. What works for one doesn't work for all.
