There is an unfortunate stigma to addiction. However, truth be told, addiction is not prejudice. It doesn’t discriminate between race, ethnicity, gender, religion, upbringing, location, or financial status. Addiction can happen to anyone. Addiction is highly common in the US. Studies reveal that an astounding 23.5 million Americans are addiction to alcohol or drugs. That’s approximately 1 out of every 10 Americans over 12 years of age.
And today, it seems the list of addictions keeps growing:
- Alcoholism
- Drug addiction
- Sex Addiction
- Internet Addiction
- Video Game Addiction
- Gambling (and not, online gambling)
- Cannabis Addiction (we now know that Marijuana is much more addiction than was originally thought)
