I'm sure everyone is different. I believe alcohol is probably very addictive, but even though I've had periods of my life where I was drinking heavily (mostly in social situations), I've never once felt the sensation of "needing a drink". It's completely foreign to me. Maybe it's a genetic thing, no idea. I just know deep down that I'll never become an alcoholic. But that doesn't mean it doesn't affect other people very differently.

I remember the video game arguments of the 90s; Mortal Kombat never made me violent. I can see how it might seem like history repeating itself, but in this case I'm talking about my own experience.
