First and foremost I despise the idea that every behavior or abuse of "substances" is a disease. Addicts and explosive types LOVE this disease model. If it is a disease, like diabetes or hypothyroidism, then it is out of their control and they are poor widdle victims. It's "in the DNA dude, I need suboxone...it's not my fault if I rob a little old lady for drug money". I do not believe anyone is born craving illegal substances. There is choice and I would like to see the disgrace put back into these behaviors. BUT, treating facilities would find it hard to bill for "disgraceful behavior NOS", so they must run around championing this pack of lies. Even if withdrawal is tough, people would do it if they were subject to the contempt they deserve. Watch for this to become a new entitled disabled group...dirty lawyers will insist. Dirty lawyers will also insist we don't discriminate against druggies. This blows.
My next pet peeve is "conduct disorder" and "antisocial personality disorder". In common parlance "criminal behavior". These violent types belong in prison not with sad depressed people or irritating manics. They also get aggressive with staff when they don't get their way. And how do you prosecute the "ill?" Pathetic Bar Association types will use these "diagnoses" to try to get grandma's killer or the person who beat up and raped your daughter out of the consequences they deserve.
NOt everyone had a happy childhood, legal beagles, but we don't go around breaking the law to suit our malicious wants!
