I don't mind being called a junkie or an addict if I am actively using on a daily basis. The words have gathered a lot of negative connotations, and the kindly cat who posted above ^^^ is right. I guess I would consider myself a mix of both though. Addiction is a word with many definitions... I understand an addict to be someone who repeats the administration of stimuli which they know deep down is going to have negative consequences (in the long run) and yet they do it anyway. I mean my family loves me and I have tons of friends and I have stopped riding the fence on ethics and morality. Alls I'm trying to say is that the battle I fight internally with opiates is the close to the same fight biologically as a "user" or "enthusiast" - I have embraced my imperfections and yes, I do still have quite a bit of learning to do, and I'm glad. I used to know everything but it was just too much of a burden... lol.
I wish everyone who struggles with addiction or neurotransmitter down regulation or whatever it is a safe and gentle journey. May the wind be at your back.
