It's a weakness of the mind and body.
Although your brain/body chemistry changes to make you crave the things your addicted to it is your physical action that draws them into the body.
While you might crave cigarettes, alcohol, and gambling to the point of driving you crazy, you have to pick up the cigarette, you have to buy that beer and you have to slap that money down on the table.
We live in a blameless society. It's okay for folks to do basically whatever they want as long as they can tie some 'addiction' or 'disease' to it.
Beat your kids? probably we're abused yourself.
Killed a bunch of people? Well you obviously were clouded with rage/lust/jealousy
Can't stop buying alcohol and getting slobbering drunk? It's probably because you can't, you see you suffer from a disease.
Can't stop bouncing off the walls? Chances are you've got a disorder.
It's the modern day equivilent to the snake-oil salesmen. They tell you that you have something wrong with you and that it's not your fault, then they tell you that there is a cure and only thay have it.
You are the source of all your problems. Plain and simple.
