Why is it easy for some people to get off of meth and so hard for others?

Question

I have been clean for over a year now and I love it.I use to be hooked on meth bad for about 15 years.My husband sneeks around and still has a bad addiction to meth and has for about 20 years now.I just want him to quit and see that he will feel so much better without it.

Answer 1

My aunt has 7 felonies pending.  That was enough to keep me from wanting that life style.  Plus people cut it, and it makes me sit and look at pictures of naked girls like a zombie for hours.  I'd rather stay sober, and not waste all my money, and worsen my mental health.    

Answer 2

Because addiction is hard to overcome for many people.

Answer 3

Some people have stronger willpower than others. Everyone's body is different also, what is easy for one person might be an incredible struggle for someone else.
