Addiction or mental illness of the sorts like schizophrenia, ocd, bipolar etc., are these natural. Are they in the human’s body as he is born? Is the infant destined to be an addict? Is the child destined to have bipolar? Does the environment he is growing up in matter in the development of the disease? Can a healthy environment prevent disease?
