Myth: Addiction means you’re weak, with no self control
‘Addiction is a chronic brain disease. It has been acknowledged as such by the American Medical Association (AMA) and other medical organizations since 1987.
The disease has nothing to do with morality or choice, but rather brain chemistry. Addiction creates changes in the brain that affect an individual’s decision making and impulse control.’ – Joseph Garbely, DO, medical director and vice president of medical services at Caron Treatment Centers
