RE: Addiction: Choice VS Disease: The False Dichotomy
Some of them might say they have no control, but if they are determined to overcome the addiction and let doctors help them, some medication actually can be given to relieve their withdrawal symptoms during detoxification. It would makes them less suffering and gain control gradually.
Drs cause the vast majority of addictions in the first place. Trusting them to give more drugs is insane
Nothing is perfect, even the western medicine. But we do improve on what we should and shouldn't. Those medical guidelines are constantly changing with time.
I’ve been paying very close attention for over 3 decades & in my opinion they have gotten much worse. So called “treatments” do more damage than good in the vast majority of cases. The most dangerous place to be is a hospital. I learned this while working in a hospital with surgeons who cared more about profit than patients.
I won't describe hospital as the most dangerous place, but it certainly is not a nice place to hang out. Afterall it is a battlefield of disease.
