[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 722031, member: 1550"] Addiction is physical craving. Dependence is using something to blunt life without physical addiction. When I first met my husbsnd he was lonely and not very happy and drank a ton. One night shortly after we met he got drunk and I was so disgusted i told him if he was going to get drunk he needed somebody else. I went home. He never drank again, even though I have told him I dont care if he has a beer. On the other hand he had a drinking buddy who is an alcoholic. Every time he would try to stop he would get the DTs. He also almost died of alcohol poisenig but didnt stop. Alcohol ruined his job and family...wife left. Even though it is hard to stop, it is done all the time and there is medical help to make it safe. And if they want to stop, they will. [/QUOTE]
