I agree.
I feel I cannot assume whether someone is pain dependant or addicted. He was not always so dependant. After the loss of his job, car, and faced forclosure on him home, it appeared that he simply gave up. Spent most hours at home or in the the bed and made the choice to seek out ways to get the pain management he needed. Whether it is that he is REALLY dependant or addicted, either way it is sad to see.
