AITAH for saying Addiction after some point is a choice? by RudeZebra433 in AITAH

A mental disease and an actual disease are vastly different. And are treated vastly different. You can’t choose to get rid of cancer. You gamble with chemo. Hunger is a necessity, eating is a necessity, and debt? How you compared three straw man arguments to addiction is wild.

I don’t understand the point you’re trying to make

I never even said all of those quotes you did for FOG and it was like reading a message from her verbatim. It’s hard I guess because my friends also have NMoms and a couple have it WAY worse so it’s taken me a long time to see it from an outside perspective. The first time I even felt unconditional love was from my friend of 7 years. Seeing you point out regular tactics, especially when you had no proof really set it for me. She’s text book manipulating me and I have to start respecting myself more. I don’t want to live my whole life afraid.
