So he got got by one of the few diseases you can just choose to not get.
It takes willful ignorance in the beginning to get addicted. I've your home, then you can no longer help it. But no one forced anyone to just start drinking too much too often.
Not sure if this is your intent but your comment might be coming off the same as, "Why don't you just stop being sad?" To people suffering from depression. Mental disorders and addictions are legitimate diseases and can be extremely complex to diagnose and treat. It's really unfortunate that Steve Harwell died under those circumstances. His music brought joy to a lot of people.
Addiction doesn't start right away. You have to keep choosing to consume while seeing it's a bad idea. You become dependant later.
Depression is not just being chronically sad, and you don't choose to be sad in the first place even if it was.
Your idea of addiction goes against the most rudimentary science about addiction.
