When I was in outpatient rehab (IOP Dual Diagnosis), no one could do anything because of the risk of cross addiction. Addicts tend towards addictions. I've actually been thru the program twice, and when I introduced myself as an alcoholic, the T said, " Tell the truth. You're the poster child for cross addiction. This is why none of you should think it's okay to lean on something else."
