Addiction as a Sui Generis Force: An Opinion Overview | Chapter 11 | Novel Research Aspects in Medicine and Medical Science Vol. 3

 The ambition that drives addiction (severe meaning use disorders) is best understood as primary, not derivative of added, commonly experienced inspirations -- though addiction often starts with other ambitions. The term, “sui generis,” emphasizes this. Addiction includes an intense focus on utilizing, with a motivational salience to use repeatedly, and to engage in joined behavior, cognition, and purpose -- to the point that it takes over the user’s history, superceding common sense, reasonable doom, and acceptable behavior. Addiction is regularly accompanied by physical reliance, but is not the same thing: namely, using to avoid retraction is not the same as using to satisfy addictive craving. But material dependence or other ambitions may appear as “fake-addiction.” Addictive craving is not a subjective derivative of other motivations (though an follower will say otherwise). In allure pathogenesis, occasional alcohol or dependence on illegal substance becomes routine. Then, orderly use becomes a turning point for many, toward craving.
