stack the rhetorical deck for the view that addictions and overdoses are diseases rather than choices.

No contradiction - when a homosexual 'bugchaser' chooses to expose himself to HIV, it's no less a disease for being a choice. (Whether we should spend taxpayer money on his health care is a separate question, which I answer in the negative.)

Sticking oneself with a dirty needle compounds the choice. OD or get Hep or HIV. People should be allowed to make choices then live with the results of their choices.
