I know lots of people that like to drink and some who smoke their "fair share of the pot" as michaelredd9 says, most of those people don't go to work drunk or stoned every day, get suspended from their job regularly, or have other troubles impacting their lives.  Are they just not addicts like Josh? What allows them to make rational decisions in their best interest, vs. Josh who cannot do that and succumbs to his desire to be stoned?

 

This is one reason I usually have a hard time buying into the "addiction is my problem". How do we distinguish between true addicton and lack of willpower?

 

You can't distinguish true addiction and lack of willpower because they are inclusive. For most addicts, it takes the loss/suspension of their job, troubles impacting their lives, loss of friends and family support and the loss of the ability to make rational decisions to even realize they are addicts. We are not talking about the social user here. When you keep doing things, knowing the consequences and disregarding those consequences, you have a problem. Having the willpower to say no to your addictive abuse is only a small percentage of the ingredients needed for a lifestyle change. Only when one succumbs to the fact they have no control over their addiction, will they have the strength to muster the willpower to end it. Other than that, it's pretty much all "smoke and mirrors" and manipulation to continue further with their destructive lifestyle.

Nope.

Baltimore and Chicago weeks 15 and 16. Someone else can risk it

 

             
 

Davante Adams had 8 receptions & 125 yards vs Baltimore with something called Brett Hundley throwing him the ball in a shutout while also throwing 3 Interceptions.

Just sayin.
