Alcoholism and sugar/grains addiction seem to go together in families. Which came first?

I really think it is more addiction related and I am insulted that a group of surgeons, who I thought respected me, would just assume I'm a victim of my "issues" and have "emotional pathology" making me crazy. If you can't respect me as a charge nurse on a busy unit, stay out! (Only in my dreams, I would never have the balls to say that to a surgeon) (Not that I have balls)
I would have to look at who participated in the study. |
