- svachalek 9y agohaving a craving !== having no choice
- bdamm 9y agoYes but I think the fine distinction is being lost. "having no choice" (such as social collapse) is not the same as "having a craving." But, psychotic obsession on the same outcome (to execute the addictive behavior), endlessly and for days, is effectively no choice. The suffering is real, and the suffering is temporarily relieved by satisfying the addiction. This is not the same as having no choice, but I don't want to marginalize the experience of addiction as merely "having a craving".
