yes...I would consider mental illness to be a disease....
I still dont think it has anything to do with addiction...
If I decide to start drinking (or even if im forced to it), then cant stop it...im addicted to it...its a bad thing, granted...
its still no medical condition like being bi-polar or schizophreniac
Im not saying that alcoholism isnt a serious problem, that it isnt really hard to overcome etc...I have a bunch of alcoholics in my family (serious ones...even uncles that lost their houses, wives etc..) and I will be the first to admit that its a terrible thing, and a serious issue...
I just...dont think its a disease...
