Drug addiction-a medicalProblem or character flaw?

NS has given drug injections to dutta to keep him under control. Now apparently he is addicted to it. Drugs affect nervous system and it becomes addictive. No strenght of mind can escape this problem. Drug addicts usually need treatment and rehabilitation along with family support. Just family support also will not work in real life situations.

I think they will show Naku becoming Dattas strength again and helping him out of this addiction. This will be the new storyline and they can stretch this as long as they want.

i know it will become an addiation... naku will save him agein

From Epi I do not think first of all he was drug addicted ,he was just using it as alcohol to see nakuu in front of him as she is not physically present the day he escaped from there there will be no question of injection again ,be cause he was not like a drug addicted while he was challenging NS or killed Body guards who spoke badly about nakuu

I will strictly talk about the scientific aspect of the question you have brought up...😊

But we can't except such logic from serial CVs. They will show that if the person gets his girl, his family support, as if by magic, he will become normal.

The issue i want to raise is "Where is the question of character assasination here?" Dutta did not take it initially on his own. He was given injections by NS's ppl forcibily to control him. Do you think because of strength of his character, the drug will not work on him?

There are many addictions in life other than drug addiction. Alcohol, smoking, Coffee, morning newspaper, TV, Internet, Social networking, even this forum are all different kind of addictions, which can be cured by different techniques like lifestyle change, keeping yourself busy in some other activities etc. But drugs, alcohol and smoking are stronger addictions, that affect the human body deeply, that needs specialized treatment.

I raised this point in a thread by Scorpio and also in Written update thread. But nobody has responded to this.

Just please give me your opinion on whether drug addiction is a physical problem or a character flaw, where a person was forcibly exposed to drugs.

Agree on the stuff in blue and about the dual treatment when it comes to drug addicts...where the treatment is given by the docs, the rehabilitation center and it is a very challenging process, overall...lot of patience and other commitments are required.

Drug addiction is definitely more of a MEDICAL condition first which leads to damage of nervous system and other significant problems include impairment when it comes to logical decision making, critical thinking abilities and more. Even if a person is forcibly given drugs without their consent, it is going to harm their body medically first causing damage to their nervous system and eventually failure of other organ systems if the treatment is not provided on time. Yes, there are psychological effects that follow drug addiction but they are more due to weaknesses within a person...but I don't think that can be characterized as 'character flaws' (debatable?) especially if we are talking about scientific vs. fiction writing's POV...because there is a biological change that happens in the body first...the changes in the behavior, moods, actions etc. are just harmful side effects of the bigger medical problem...so I wouldn't think they can be characterized as 'character flaws' necessarily (?)...because by that means, then every medical condition can be characterized as a 'character flaw' since there are always neurological and psychological symptoms associated with almost every medical condition. Again, I could be wrong about this...this is what I have been able to deduce from listening to stuff here and there...😊

First off, lets be honest here. Just because some creative mind has decided to get NS to inject drugs into Dutta's body, that doesn't necessarily mean they are trying to butcher his character or that there is a flaw in Dutta's personality. The whole point of injecting the drugs into his body, is too keep him so out of his mind, that he is unable to poore hosho awaaz main, not be able to escape from their clutches- explains why Dutta hasn't been able to beat the living daylights out of them and return with a victory (bar the off screen mess 😆). The character is having drugs forced into his body, he can't help it, that does not automatically mean that he is now a 'bad, flawed person.' Yes we are angry and upset with how the show has been treated, how MR was treated, but if a select few start to blow things out of proportion, and try to create propesterous ideas about further charatcer butchering, a) it's not right in a common sense aspect, creating/spreading views and b) it's not going to help you or anyone else who are trying to move on from the show.

LTL fan, I think strength of a person, willpower etc etc, has nothing to do with being able to defy the side effects of drugs and it's addiction. So whatever physical strength Dutta has, he will suffer from the effects of drugs. I defo agree with Sourire (Param), you cannot call his drug addiction a 'flaw.'

I haven't watched the show since MR left, omly a few odd minutes here and there intially, but I am totally cut off from it. I think people just need to chill out and stop trying to create perceptions of Dutta being tainted.

Btw, I think a running SA as Dutta makes me think this drug problem is going to be brushed under the carpet like it never happened 😆 I highly doubt that a drugged up Dutta suffering from withdrawal symptoms is going to be shown at the peak of his comeback, beating up goons 😆 This is soap world- logic is an absolute no-no
