Addiction is on a scale of sorts. Some people are at the beginning and others are at the very end.
If you have to ask chances are pretty good that you're somewhere on the scale.
The scale doesn't have to be a straight line, either. Perhaps it's more of a 3d object (maybe a sphere) that intersects with other mental disorders/illnesses.
No one has to lose anything to have a problem...an addiction.
If anyone wants to quit the support is here for people at all levels of addiction.
