This is dumb.
Opiates hardwire your brain to become addicted.
It took me 2.5 years, but I was able to quit fairly easily when I got tired of it; which was right when I started getting addicted and it lost the fun.
Yes, some people have no self control. But this has nothing to do with opiates, and everything to do with lifestyle choices.
Most people in society have no self control because gluttony and overabundance is now idolized by mainstream media.

Eh.. That's not true.. Maybe un satisfied, but not lonely..I had plenty of friends when I started.
I had everything when I started, and nothing now. So I'd say it's a progessive accumulation of losing everything. When I was growing up I was the only mature one out of all my friends, they'd enjoy adreniline rushes by jumping bikes or skateboards...And I turned to drugs because they not only felt like my calling, but I could do something I always liked and get my own rush.. I was a very safe kid, I never jumped bikes or skateboards instead I got into snorting pills, then jumped quite quickly into heroin. Never shot it though i don't like the rush, but I like being high.
Probably because I'm still a safe kid lol

I read about that when the study was first published. I don't disagree with it at all. I have good friends and plenty of acquaintances; but I am still very dissatisfied with living in this society, and I am very well aware of the reasons why. I'm not going to deny that at all. At least now I am actively working to change my situation so I can be satisfied. Before I was just getting high to forget about those feelings.
But I'm talking about physical addiction, not addictive personalities. One can lead to the other if you're not mindful of your self.
I never banged it either, because I'm smart enough to not bypass my metabolic passes with an unregulated and cut street drug.
