I don't know...i guess i can see both sides...i usually work within the diseaase concept...
bottom line is i really don't care what others call it, and i just have an idea in my mind of what i think i'm dealing with that makes since to me.
choice and responsibility are two different issues for me....I am responsible regardless of wether or not i have a choice...
focusing on the misapplications of how others use concepts and words is only helpful to me if it is done in order to understand what i believe.
i think it is really good to put some thought into how you see this aclhohoism/addiction stuff and sorting out how to find your path through it all
