It's definitely difficult to separate the disease part with the moral part. Right now my sister is in active addiction, crack and PCP, and I'm very angry with her.
In a sense I understand it's not HER but the drugs, the persona surrounding the drug hunt and use... but it's the actions that's hard to forgive.
Okay, let's say yes...the disease of addiction does justify the illness...but does it justify the continuing decisions to use? Once you realize it's a disease, an illness, shouldn't that be the first step to recovery....not an excuse?
