Abstinence is most realistic for substance addiction as it involves complete cessation of drug or alcohol use. While certain behaviors such as sexual or work addiction may be managed through moderation or behavior modification, substance addiction often requires complete abstinence to prevent relapse. Shopping addiction may also involve abstinence from shopping, but it may be more difficult to completely avoid situations where shopping may occur.
