Dr. Maté on a podcast about addiction & trauma I listened to recently made me think of drug use this way: we are all traumatized by events in our lives, some more so. Addiction is how many of us cope. The question we should be asking is: what does someone's addiction do for them?

There are various addictions: online shopping, gambling, drugs, sex, social media, etc. For some, it provides a breath of relief, or excitement, feelings of validation, love, or a warm hug. For others it's an escape from pain or the cruelty of life. Who are we to judge that?
