It does. I figured Hotch's comment stems from the idea that once you are diagnosed as an alcoholic, drug addict, etc. you recognize you will ALWAYS have a problem with that, which is why people are referred to as "recovering alcoholics" even when they have been sober for years. They reconize that they are still tempted and one drink, one hit will send them spiriling back down. Part of why Reid character seems to not want narcotic painkillers (at least in most fanfics if not canon). Makes me wonder if too many NSAIDs have destroyed his stomach lining...
