Solution

Addiction is the physical and mental dependence on a specific substance, and one who is unable to resist indulgence in such a habit is called an addict. Habits like smoking, drinking, and drug use are frequently the result of an inability to cope with the pressures and strains, tedium, and suffering of daily life, persecution or indifference from family members, and encouragement from friends.
