[QUOTE="TheWalrus, post: 688002, member: 19905"] I agree. Addiction is psychological and some are more predispositioned to becoming an addict. I think that the younger you are when you start something, the more vulnerable you are to addiction as your brain is undergoing so many changes that creates a fertile environment for addiction. I don't know many people who pick up smoking later in life. Not to say that age protects you from addiction. I just think many things factor in - age, environment, genetics, predisposition... I never drank as a teen and rarely as a young adult. Too broke and tired raising kids. I drink occasionally now but only socially and not to excess. Alcoholism is foreign to me and my mindset, as is any addiction. [/QUOTE]
