Addicted to Love
Thesis: One cannot be addicted to love, but can to ersatz-love.
The Millers (reference is Staying Clean and Sober by Merlene and David Miller) and other researchers such as Julia Ross posit that there are irregularities in the brain chemistry of potential addicts which predispose them to substance abuse. Restore healthy brain chemistry and the physical hunger is assuaged. No-one has an alcohol shortage, or a heroin shortage, they are close-enough substitutes for neurotransmitters like seratonin, dopamine, nerepinephrine, GABA and others.
You can tell we made a film on this.
