Given that more than half of the people who responded did it on their own, I would say that's incorrect.
Anyway, I remember learning in IOP that there are stages and that there is a fork in the road. Those of you who were able to nip it in the bud--I really admire you. Unfortunately, when I was able to stop, I didn't give it much thought because I thought I could stop anytime I needed to stop. Instead, I went all the way to nearly the end.
