Is addiction to drugs a disease? How about alcohol dependence? It’s an ongoing debate in the media, around kitchen tables, and online — Especially with with New Jersey's opiate crisis getting more and more out of control.

I know my answer. But I want to be clear: Heroin addicts who won’t admit the role they played in their own misfortune will not succeed in recovery.
