Get the disease right and all these symptoms disappear. Let me show you how focusing on the individual addictions has messed up addictionology over the last 100 years. 100 years ago, addictions were bad and immoral. Addictionology took 64 years to catch up to this wrong concept because they've been stuck in psychobabble for 99 years. Now I come along and say, Hypoism is the disease that causes all addictions and addictionology says, NO, each addiction is a disease.
Alcoholism is a disease.
Heroin addiction is a disease. Notice the emphasis. To addictionology, the disease only occurs after the addiction is thoroughly in place. The disease was there at birth. The addictions happen one at a time as the hypoic lives and experiences them inexorably.
