Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Research indicates that only a minority of people who try cocaine become addicted to it within 10 years of their first use. This suggests that addiction is not inevitable and that factors such as genetics, environment, and individual choices can influence the development of addiction. Additionally, it is not true that behaviors such as gambling cannot become addictive – in fact, gambling disorder is recognized as a diagnosable mental health condition. Finally, while many ex-smokers may benefit from some form of treatment or support in quitting smoking, it is not accurate to say that only a small minority of America's ex-smokers were able to quit on their own. The last option, regular marijuana smokers experiencing an irresistible craving for LSD, is also incorrect and unsupported by research.
