Jason Powers MD – Addiction Recovery – Right Step Drug & Alcohol Treatment Center


How Applicable an Argument Is the “Freedom to Choose” to Use a Substance if the Substance Is Addictive?

Question by .02 REMAINS: How applicable an argument is the “freedom to choose” to use a substance if the substance is addictive?
To expand on my point, an addictive substance removes the user’s freedom to choose not to use it.

Is it more applicable to describe a “freedom to use, not to abuse” policy towards addictive substances?

At what point does use turn into abuse? To ask another way, at what point does the freedom to choose to use (or not use) no longer exist?

Specifically, I am thinking about alcohol and tobacco, but you may use other examples in your response as well.
