[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 539579, member: 14557"] With my difficult child an odd thing is that his other problems don't really seem addiction based. While there is a lot in his personality that should make him very vulnerable to other addictions, that doesn't seem to be a case really. At least not now. He does drink, but is sensitive to alcohol (feels very easily sick) and mostly drinks very moderately, just a beer or three during the night in nightclub etc. He did use snus (very addictive oral tobacco, which is extremely popular among his friends and team mates) regularly, but stopped that when he started to be short on money. And didn't struggle with quitting at all. He does drink lots of coffee (really a lot, like half a gallon a day) but if his routine breaks and coffee is not readily available can happily go two or three days without even thinking about it. I had much harder time to break from my coffee habit and I drink half of what he does. His biggest problems are social, addiction seems to be just an icing of the cake. [/QUOTE]
