@tardigrade8019 People with addictions are trying to reduce their suffering through those addictions until it no longer is a choice. They value their immediate well-being more than some future well-being because right now is all you ever have. You can't ever know that you will still be alive tomorrow. I think masochists get pleasure out of pain and get stronger from that pain/suffering. So they are still trying to achieve a higher sense of well-being, just in a roundabout way. Like people that run marathons. David Goggins is an extreme example lol cause he's 100% a masochist. They don't like pain just to suffer but for a goal of well-being or relief.
