Bloody hell. I can imagine if you are that way inclined and earn that sort of money then it can be a very easy hole to fall into. The only thing I can never get with addiction, regardless of what substance, is what makes you want to repeat day after day? We all have our own chemical reactions and our bodies deal with what we ingest/drink/smoke differently. But using myself as an example. If I have a night when I get smashed, the last thing I want to do is repeat it the next night.
It might be different on a stag, because you know you're going to session for 3 days or so then stop. But I remember coming back from Ibiza this year (1st time). I hit it hard for 3 days straight with very little sleep, I couldn't imagine continually doing this over a period of years.
Addicts don't want to do it again. Their body and mind tells them they need to. Breaking an addiction is far harder than just saying "I'm not doing that again."

That's what I'm interested in. How unfortunate the position they must be in that their body dictates they need to get on it again. That there is an impulse that strong it overcomes rational thought. Plus I know with alcohol there are physical reactions if they don't drink. Scary stuff

imagine not wanting to wank ever again, because when you do it destroys the lives of everyone you love. But sometimes those feelings can become overwhelming if you don't keep them in check.

If alcohol were to be catergorised as a substance today, due to the potential for harm both to the user and wider society it would be a Class A drug. Food for thought.

but i was saying it's something that feels compulsive to you. Now imagine it destroyed your life and everyone around you, that's what addiction is like.

Some people have addictive personalities too. Anything that gives you a high you want to do it again & again then comes the physical addiction.

He put a "loads of money size wad" on a horse, at a total guess I'd say £10K.
I told my mates. We all stuck a £5 on and it won :-)
That is of course until the third version comes out.

Doctor: Because I'm trying to take your blood pressure....
