I'm more skeptical. They're pretty much addicts. And the nature of an addict is to cling to it unless they're at risk of losing everything.  Still, I keep posting in shit like that just in hopes that there's some little kid reading it. Adults are usually a lost cause past some point. But I know from being raised by an alcoholic that it can mean a lot when you're a kid and you get assurance that you can be better than your parents.
