Whether I've wanted to or not...over the years, I have learned quite a bit about addiction. Through books, therapy, etc... and everything I've learned talks about how addictions go hand in hand. Its quite common for addicts to have more than one addiction. My therapist (who specializes in addiction) also said that if they don't work a program well and stick with it, they will typically find another addiction to substitue the alcohol with as they are still seeking that 'high'. Scares me....
