Addicts have no damn willpower, man
<|assistant|>
That's because willpower is only a component of addiction and not a prerequisite. Addiction is a complex disease of the brain that alters the way the mind operates and makes it difficult for the individual to use drugs or drink alcohol in a healthy and moderate way, despite the desire to do so. For some addicts, relying on the power of will to conquer addiction is simply not enough, and formal help in the form of therapy, group support, and medications can be necessary to get and stay sober.
