Why are people scared of being addicted to things?

Is it because they don't know you can simply drop an addiction/habit like that *snaps fingers* even heroin and video games?

I think so.

it's not a real addiction if they can actually do that.

Well what you are saying is that addictions aren't real, which is just a roundabout way of agreeing with the OP. So, in all fairness, that sage wasn't called for.

You're on to something, OP.......I used to be addicted to cigarettes but now I just VAPE. Like all day.

It's because most ``people'' are very weak willed, just following their programs.
Look at christians: an immodestly dressed child is enough to break their ``willpower'' and make them commit the crime of child rape.
