"Иногда важно уметь говорить, потому что и в молчании – нет большого смысла." ©
I've always despised any kinds of addictions because it shows dark sides of people and turns us into weak lousy creatures (I believe that we all are good in our cores, but...).

But I've found out that it really depends on a person.
Life always tears off masks and shows true faces in the end.

So, if a person is weak falling into addiction will be demonic and cause all negative side effects like dependence and lack of self-support.
Then any refuse to provide any kinds of resources that comes from object of addition will cause offenses, weeping, hysterical state and other kinds of manipulations.

When it comes to a strong, self-confident person the picture changes.
Falling into weakness might be still there but strong person will face it fearlessly and will turn those weaknesses into resources of energy, motivation to move forward and opportunity to better oneself.
Addiction in this case will harden the strength.

This is completely different approach in dealing with life's challenges.
We can't control everything and are powerless to change some things.
The question is not in addiction itself or how to fight it. The question is how we respond. Do we accept what comes and use it for our own sake or fall into it?
There is nothing good or bad in any phenomenon. We tab it with our own reactions about it and make it evil or divine and choose how it effects our life.
