Isn't Drug Addiction self-inflicted?

People do not set out to become a drug addict. They take drugs to get high, or to relieve pain, or maybe even just to see what the drug will do.

They don’t take drugs to get hooked. This sounds very simple and straight forward, but it’s an important point to remember.

Drugs affect different people in different ways. How is it that one person can take drugs and not become addicted, while another uses once and is immediately pulled in? Some can walk away, while others suffer terrible consequences.

Also, as a person uses drugs more often, even though it doesn’t appear that anything bad is happening, their brain chemistry changes. That change is what causes addiction. Soon, it is no longer a choice to take drugs or to leave them alone. The change in brain chemistry demands more drugs. As their disease progresses, the addicts will take drugs even though the drugs are harming them. Some people can never stop, and the drug use eventually kills them.

To a point there is choice involved in using drugs, or staying clean. The first step in the 12-Step process is admitting that you have a problem. But it’s just too easy to say that addiction is self-inflicted., because people are complex and unique.
