QuestionAre some people absolutely incapable of becoming addicted to substances? I have never felt the 'need' to smoke or drink alcohol. I dont even drink coffee.
I did try smoking when I was younger but I never got hooked on it and I am glad it worked out that way.
AnswerHi d and thanks for writing,
Addictions are a very complex process with MANY causes and effecting causes. There are psychological, physical, emotional & genetic causes/factors which affects who is more likely to cause a person to beceom addicted.
It sounds like you're lucky to have a combination of good genes and common sense, and you didn't enjoy the potentially addictive substances you've tried so far, but I wouldn't push your luck - if you don't have any bad hyabits now, don't try any in the future.
Hope this helps, all the best,
