Had like 3 guys I know on Facebook come out with the whole "In recovery! Fighting this disease!" Shit in the past year or so.

No. You're a fucking dope fiend. No one forced you to do drugs. It was a choice.

God damn. One of these guys was a VERY successful business owner who ran a custom car shop in MD. he fell off the face of the earth for a while then came back all "YAY RECOVERY!". I'm happy he's making a positive change in his life, but stop with the "it's a disease" bullshit.

Here's a good video on the subject.

There's vastly more evidence that supports the disease model than exists to refute it.

Well, God knows your opinion and a wacky Facebook video should carry more weight than trained professionals.

I agree... you didn't accidentally catch your disease because a hypodermic syringe full of smack fell out of the sky and stabbed you in the neck as you were walking your dog.

I have family with this "disease" and the heartache they put the rest of us through pisses me off.

Totally agree with OP.

Drug addiction is BS.
Mental illness is just lack of character.
Diabetes is for special snowflakes who need to be needy.
And people in Virginia are all gay far-left entitled emos. 

Label much, OP?

In before any vet who struggled with painkillers after an injury.

Drug abuse is the only disease that makes you feel good when you get it. Not a disease other than insurance companies and doctors can make money off it.

Addictive behavior and low self esteem may be a disease. Making a conscious desision to drink, smoke, shoot shit into your veins is not a disease.

The shit you did to get you there is a choice. Getting addicted is a fucking choice. Staying addicted is a choice to continue to be weak and give into your shitty urges.

How about the normally straight and narrow people who get hooked on pain meds after their doctor prescribes them like candy?  Are they scum for being "weak"

I would argue that an addictive personality is genetic like most diseases. Be it alcohol, cigarettes, sex, porn, gambling, tattoos, etc... There are studies that show an alcoholic usually has alcoholic parents an example.

That being said....the whole "I cant help it, I have a disease" argument is BS.

Alcoholism is a disease but, it's like, the only disease you can get yelled at for having. "Dammit, Otto! You're an alcoholic!" "Dammit, Otto! You got lupus!"
One of those doesn't sound right.
