It's both, and more.
Some people are predisposed to a physical chemical dependency, should they ever imbibe alcohol or other chemicals.
Some people are predisposed to a psychological chemical dependency, should they ever imbibe alcohol or other chemicals.
Some people, after imbibing said chemicals decide to forgo continued imbibing.
Some people, after imbibing said chemicals decide to continue imbibing.
People continue because they lack the willpower to stop.
Some people lack the willpower because the physical addiction is overwhelming.
Some people lack the willpower because the psychological addiction is overwhelming.
There is help for both.
