Is anyone else tired of hearing people say alcoholism is a disease?

You either choose to drink or you don't. All the disease crap is just that...crap. Saying it is a disease is just an excuse to downplay the fact that people are making crap decisions and choose to ruin their bodies due to a total lack of disrespect for themselves and those around them. If you have no self esteem or you choose to mask issues by staring down the bottom of a bottle you don't not have a disease...you are just a ******* up individual. Get it together people.
