Being a "USER" vs an "ABUSER"

Which do you fall into overall?

USER: in their addiction, now basically using to maintain and get by....almost a routine you'd use certain times like a schedule. Never really heavy dosing to get super high....just enough to feel good as a responsible functioning addict.

ABUSER: takes as much as possible to get really, really high....ex, you have 20 pills to last the weekend, but you instantly pop 5-6 with no caution or care to consequences you'll prob run out too early....but you get super, super high! Abuser role can be fun, yet dangerous....

*--*** - personally I've been a "user" since 2004....the real oxys, then into sniffing dope....managed a similar
level of use and tolerance... I've only recently experienced times of being an abuser when buying strong dope from Camden NJ -- went to a new set and crack was always there too....so when I'd get paid I'd buy the "hard" on top of my Deisel and after 10yrs of "use" one drug can make you an instant "abuser"!! But, in a weird way it cut back my opiate abuse to @ only 4 bags a day....I'm still burning money as an abuser 2-3 days a week....but survive off lower dope levels other days and my WD's are far less painful now that the rock/readies made me take less dope. Ironic shift, eh??
 
I'm a very casual user of most drugs. I love hallucinogens, but use them maybe once or twice a month. I like to stockpile my drugs and always have something for a rainy day. I dislike opiates, but I still keep a lot around in case I need them to trade. Meth is the only drug that has me on the border. I don't fiend; I pass it up if I can't afford it. That being said, when I do get some, I sit down and go through it like mad.
 
i am a user of pretty much everything i take except

pot - chronic abuser. can't seem to make a gram last more than a day, whether i buy 1/8th or an ounce +
alcohol - occasional abuser. usually keep intake quite low, sometimes i fuck up.
 
For me an ideal "user" of drugs is a person free of any compulsive drug use patterns, which only does them according to their own decision and not craving or similar mechanisms. Which implies- probably not very often. Any departure from this base makes one more of an "abuser".

Personally I think I'm quite abusive about drugs in general, I just love to get high. I don't really like opiates or pharmacy drugs ('cept DXM <3) as I prefer the ups over downs. Lately I've been doing strong stimulants about once-twice a month and not really feeling an urge to do it any more often. As for psychedelics, I have periods when I will only do them occasionally, or, like now, whenever I have enough free time to feel comfortable about it which is usually every weekend. Going to the local psy parties is always a good opportunity to drop some Shulginesque. ;) Not abusive about any substance in particular (except maybe DXM :D <3).
 
Good replies....I think this shows type of drug you're into reflects how its nature makes you abuse it more.... seems speed/Meth types blow thru it quicker....but for me, coke has no physical addiction to me....as in I get no WD's when not using it and don't crave it, unless I just did it or ran out....its all mental.

Now, opiátes/benzos/alchohol are the ones that really physically screw your body up...and feels like death without them.

For me, life was so much simpler and far better when I just smoked weed a few times a day!
 
I can admit to being an abuser when it comes to just about every drug.

The example the OP made of blowing through multiple pills/booze without a second thought is me to the dot.
 
I guess I would mostly consider myself a user, I need something attached to my opioid receptors to be able to be able to function as a person, but it is rare that I take a drug to get 'fucked up'. For me, bupe is what I use daily, because it is very long acting and I am spending 1/20th the money on it than I was when I was on heroin. I smoke weed 3-4 times a day, about half a bowl each time %)
 
Abuser turned user? Now I have slowed down a lot more than what i was doing before. I no longer drink to get completely hammered, or smoke crack, or bang pills.
I now use on a consistent basis delaudid...mainly because of my job but i snort them, or take them orally...and I use them to a point where i know my limit and don't completely nod off all fucked up.

Actually, edit: When it comes to good MDMA/E im an abuser
