People are always saying how an addiction to something is bad. They are all liars. Don't believe what they say. Having an addiction to something means that whatever it is you are addicted to helps you in a way. For example, people who are alcoholics, they need the alcohol as an escape from reality. It helps them get the escape they want, with the added bonus of forgetting things for a while. Smokers smoke because it calms them. It gives them peace and time to relax and let things go. Drug addicts use drugs because it makes them feel happy or calm, which they obviously need if they took drugs the first time. People just misunderstand addicts because they have never experienced an addiction from the view point of an addict, and not those lab rats they use who they force into the addiction. From that they obviously will get answers no one wants to hear. Researchers need to watch real addicts for real results. I would know, I once believed all the lies they said about addicts. It's amazing how much your perspective changes when you know how an addict feels from the perspective of one. I am an addict and I'm proud of it. This is my story and I'm choosing to share it with you who decide to read this. Just sit back and enjoy the show.
