Tobacco use and alcohol abuse are more individual problems than societal issues, so the responsibility for smoking cessation or alcohol treatment belongs to the individual.” I agree with this statement because I feel that the responsibility for smoking cessation or alcohol treatment cannot be shared by an individual with the other members of the society. However, the addiction to tobacco and alcohol is an individual problem as well as a societal issue. There can be situations when addicted individuals can be sent to rehabilitation centers; however, such addicted individuals might continue being addicted after returning from rehabilitation centers (Zweben & West, 2020).
