The liar can stop lying at any time. The child abuser can stop abusing at any time. The thief can stop stealing at any time.
And the alcoholic can stop drinking at any time? The smoker quit smoking? The addict can stop shooting up? The guy bouncing of the walls from too much coffee can stop drinking? The gambler can stop gambling?

That's good to know. People can now stop wasting time and money on all these treatments and "just stop".

And apparently you've never heard of people doing things in a fit of rage.
Even the courts have a different degree of punishment when something is done in the heat of the moment. They recognize that people lose control under certain circumstances because their emotions take over their actions.
