There is a lot of debate about this topic. It's unknown fully, yet, in the field of Psychology if there are predisposition psychological disorders about those with substance abuse. Some research has shown that yes, there's is something called an "addictive personality" that we're just born with. Sometimes, substance abuse is genetic, as well.
