Is your theory that someone with substance use disorder is not in control over whether they use?

Of course we will grant that it may be immeasurably difficult

But just who was it that put that shit in my body in the first place? And then kept doing it until i trained my brain to create an autopilot “need” for it to reach some kind of homeostasis? And yea, maybe i can’t quit without medically assisted detox, am i not in control over whether i go seek that assistance?

Just not sure on your theory of control/choice here….
