I have recently taken a new job as a contracter in a government position. I am finding that this explination of the disease is not accepted across the board. It really irks me that people can be working in the field of addiciton in a government position and not readily admit that this is the accepted overall definition of the disease of addiction. God help us all as we continue to do our best to help and educate the addicted person.
