It took me forever to grasp this concept that cutting was an addiction. To me an addiction is anything you are willing to put above all else. And for cutting was that. At the worse i would have gladly spent all day in my room slicing away. Whether that meant i was missing out or something. Also i think it can be classified as an addiction for me because i had always thought i have this under control i can stop at anytime. Classic addiction statements in my book. But like any other addiction it can be broken if time and persistance is poured into. Even with slip ups it can be gained. Then again this is just my overblown two cents.
