Addicts get so used to the positive feelings induced by the drug that they get strong depressions when sober. But that is their choice, not an effect of the drug. It's part of the addictive personality. |

There's no choice, addicts are not in control. There was a point in time when they lost control, but that was in the past and they didn't know it then. A person who can at will stop using the drug is not an addict by definition. The first step in overcoming addiction is reasserting control. Addicts who claim that they have no control over their addictions remain addicts for life (often a short life). |

Not to mention it is exactly opposite the 12 step programs where you MUST admit that you have no control and turn yourself over to a "Higher Power." |
