So far studies do show that our genetic make up and genes that might be defective can predispose some of us to be more likely to become alcoholics, drug addicts, or even be cigarette smokers. Although the study of genetics is a very complicated matter that most of us really might not be able to comprehend easily, it does not take a genius to figure out that if you had parents that were alcoholics, that you might be an alcoholic. If your great grandfather drank too much that could be why your dad and then you drink too much.
The thing about being genetically predisposed is that it might not matter what you try and like, you could become addicted to that as well. Some people just seem to have a problem becoming addicted to many things. You might be someone that drinks too much and loves to gamble while doing it. You might be a pot smoker who also overeats. You might become addicted to pornography and sex, and also have a meth addiction. When you look at people with these kinds of addictions, they will many times also be cigarette smokers.
Sometimes smoking is the very first addiction someone will have. This does not necessarily mean that a person is predisposed to smoking, but it might mean that someone who is not could have an easier time stopping than someone who is. A person that can become addicted to anything easily will usually have a harder time quitting that particular habit. It does not mean that they can not quit whatever they are addicted to, only that it can be harder for them than others.
This genetic thing is one good reason that some people should do their best to stay away from some things that they could become addicted to. If you went to a race track once or played poker once or twice and then you were plagues with excessive thoughts of doing it again, it might be something you just need to not do again. If you drank alcohol a few times and could not wait until your next opportunity to do it again, perhaps you should stay quit while you are ahead.
The ability to stop something easily is what separates some of us from those that are predisposed to addiction. Sometimes smoking cigarettes are the first addiction because they are so easy to get when we are young and the easiest thing to get away with. It is usually later on when we are introduced to other things like sex, alcohol, gambling, and drugs. If you are pretty sure you are someone that becomes addicted to things easily, then you always need to use caution before you ever engage in any activity that could be a problem.
