The fundamental issue in addiction is whether you're in charge of your own life. You're not a deficient human being in some fundamental way. You're the person who can arrange specifically around addictions, your world, so that you don't end up in some place where you almost have to smoke anxious with your ex-mother-in-law who's offering you cigarettes.
