    The word albatross is sometimes used metaphorically to mean a psychological burden that feels like a curse. An Albatross was a major character in the 1798 poem The Rime of the Ancient Mariner. In the poem, an albatross starts to follow a ship - being followed by an albatross was generally considered a sign of good luck. However, the titular mariner shoots the albatross with a crossbow, which is regarded as an act that will curse the ship. The bird is placed on the sailor's neck by shipmates to show the guilt in killing it. Therefore, the albatross can be both an omen of good or bad luck, as well as a metaphor for a burden to be carried as penance.

    Addiction, crawls from the depths of our minds with an offer of goodwill and kindness, but if someone continues to appease it's wants and needs it will ultimately force itself upon you, either you accept it's offer to continue, or you beat it back in defiance. "Let her rip", and forget about everything, or refuse to drink and take notice of the beauty right on your shoulder.

Now the REAL problem with all that is that it's used often as a substitute FOR storytelling rather than an aide. A simple set of props to distract the audience, nothing more. In the right hands, they can tell a surprisingly beautiful tale. Or at least one with some semblance or meaning deep behind it.

For example...if you have all the symptoms and behaviors of an addict, and have done so for a long time, your body will now have a specific chemical in it which will trigger the "craving" of your drug of choice, should you ever go back to using again. That's the difference; you can be drug free for 30 yrs, and if you go back and use, just that one time is all it will take for the brain to be triggered into "craving" mode. So no...as I stated, "you can't be cured of the disease of addiction".

    i love this animation, and i'm revisiting it a year later, and so i could hear everything he said, i put captions on. he's called "iceman" and originally (unless it's just the caption author choosing ice over glass) i thought he was glass, to signify the broken bottles and whatnot. but thinking of him as ice is different, because the sounds his body makes (specifically when he drinks the first shot and it flows through him) match ice so much more than the sound of glass rubbing together, as well as his shot glasses being ice means an always cold drink. nothing "in-depth" here, just a thought about him being ice rather than glass
