Why We Destroy What We Love Most

A successful physician loses everything to alcohol despite a seemingly perfect childhood. A corporate attorney turns to cocaine after a single professional mistake. A mother secretly abuses pills while hosting the perfect family gathering. What makes intelligent, capable people continue behaviors that devastate their lives? The answer isn't weakness, lack of willpower, or damaged brains-it's something far more human and understandable. Addiction operates as an emotional survival mechanism, a desperate attempt to reclaim power when life feels unbearably out of control. This understanding transforms addiction from a moral failing into a psychological puzzle we can actually solve.
