RE: Addiction: It Starts With Choice, But Doesn't End There

I share the exact same point of view: initially, addiction involves a choice, but over time, the addiction consumes that choice and becomes a part of us something we cannot easily separate ourselves from. Breaking free is certainly possible after all, there is nothing a person cannot achieve but it requires immense willpower, a complete overhaul of one's schedule, and the implementation of gradual changes.
