> The idea that people who are healthy, secure, and mentally resilient don't tend to have crippling addictions is not terribly controversial I suspect the implied cause and effect is underlying that. A belief that "healthy, secure, and mentally resilient" leads to "no crippling addictions" is hard to quantitatively show. Most likely the causation is reversed: we define someone with a crippling addiction as "unhealthy or mentally unresilient". I certainly have multiple addicts (especially smokers and drinkers) within my own peer group of healthy, secure, and mentally resilient people. And Hungary has 20% of the population with Alcohol Use Disorder/Alcoholism. Do those 20% all have childhood trauma?
