Weird thing about opiates. When I first started taking them, I was never addicted to them, just took them a few times a week if that. They seem to chip away at you until you ARE addicted to them.

By whole life I have never been addicted to anything and I have had plenty of chances. I drank like a fish all thru my twenties and I barely drink at all now in my 30's. I smoked for one year cause my young girlfriend at the time did, only around her. Haven't picked up a smoke since. I just don't have an addictive personality but with opioids, give them time and eventually they break thru and get you addicted.

What I believe happens which is different from other things is that your biology changes. Your body chemistry changes and THAT is something you can't fight.
