Drug User, Abuser or Addict...Which Best Describes You?

I don't consider it abuse unless it is mentally or physically hurting you, or preventing you from meeting goals and obligations in your life

But in one way or another, doesn't all drug [ab]use hurt you? At least, in some ways?


/ontopic.

I'm a user. I use drugs for fun, to enhance whatever I'm doing, and just because I like to. But, I'm always able to turn drugs down, if I'm just not feeling it.

My DOC are: Weed, Alcohol, Ecstasy, Opiates.
 
I would consider myself a user of methamphetamine. I go to school, be with loved ones, clean my hone, with or without it. I keep my physical apperance as well kept as possible. I am slightly dependent on it as I do it for my depression, but would not consider myself an addict.

Alcohol I abuse. I drink to escape, to get away with devious things, and to hurt myself. I drink heavily and mix whatever is to available to me.

My one addiction is cigarettes. I am physically and mentally dependent. Without them, I get physical pain and nausea from withdrawal along with anxiety, depression, and irritability. Still I do enjoy smoking, but it has too much impact on my life.

Anything else that comes around falls into experimentation for me. I'm not looking for habitual drug use, though I know meth could turn into a heavy addiction at any moment.
 
*Should clarify that not ALL parts of those three descriptions (user, abuser, addict) will apply to everyone all the time. There's obviously some overlap going on in some people's cases ;D
 
Drug addict.

When it comes to spending my money, meth is always the first thing that it will go towards, because if I don't have meth I can't function and I can't do anything, including making more money. I have given up everything in my life for this drug.
 
I'm a user, I only do drugs every week or two. But I have been an abuser in the past.

I am addicted to cigarettes, but that doesn't really count. But just being addicted to cigarettes was enough to convince me that I don't EVER want to get addicted to real drugs. So, I'm really careful about how often I use and what reason I do them.
 
I am an abuser, I take drugs in way too high doses and go on binges.
Example, blowing though 250mg over a two day adderall binge, then dosing on high doses on benzos to cope with comedown.

Take high doses of opiates, sometimes it would make me sick and throw up.

Using ecstasy way too much at raves, and doing another ketamine to get K-hole in a bad setting like a rave.

I'm addicted to cigarettes.

I abuse alcohol

I use weed, opiates, benzos, and psyches. Weed three to four time a week, others once a week or less.
 
I consider myself a user. Sometimes i do get carried away and eat a bunch of opiates or benzo's though. Mostly i control my usage due to work and taking care of my lil girl. So i do not allow myself to get to the point of addiction.
Due to chronic back pain, i do use more opiates than needed.

Are you an addict when you do enough to get a buzz sometimes Or when you have to do it to get through the day? A problem all users have is being able to control the drug and not let the drug control you.

Damn relapsing lol
 
Addict, Im in it for the long haul unforunately. Opiates and weed are a daily thing, psychs/MDMA are a twice maybe three times a year thing and I don't abuse stims anymore (crack gave them a bad name in my eyes).
 
nobody wants to be labled an addict, i hated being called that in rehab(like im some sick person labled ,seperated from society/. I'm just a guy lookin for a good time. I'm a user, drugs are part of my life like having a can of soda
 
although I am off my drug of choice which is IV methamphetamine I am still an addict to benzodiazepines and dextroamphetamine, I get the dextroamphetamine perscribed for many symptoms and reasons, but one of the reasons is I do something called stimulant maintainance.
Addiction is NOT cool and NOT fun, I am currently experiencing what is known as amphetamine psychosis and I am certainly not feeling so pleasent.
Whenever I abuse amphetamine days later I end up feeling really weird and horrible.
 
Abuser. I'm not addicted to anything (yet, although I do smoke weed everyday). Drugs are a large part of my life, and I have no problem with that. I'm very open about my drug use and feel like I am fairly well educated and experienced with many substances. I generally don't do anything stupid and obviously research anything and everything. I do many different drugs for many different reasons and so far have kept control and keep it in balance with my life. Although yknow, shit happens.
 
Drug Abuser for five years...and i think the only reason it hasn't escalated to addict is beacuse of the sheer lack of my DoC in my area. I'd hate to think if i could just walk to down the street or make a call and score some dope, i would definitely be an addict.
 
Addict. I pop pills that I've thrown up and used to wake up to a handful of hydrocodone just to get out of bed. Now I do OC and anyone close to me knows how that's going...

Sounds like me... But I would tend to classify myself as a drug abuser, because most of the drugs I use are prescribed to me by my doctor.

That being said, my doctor prescribes excessively high doses of addictive drugs. I've been taking large doses of prescription stimulants for and benzos for about a year now, and am heavily addicted to both. The food thing I can definitely relate to; I eat less so that I can take my pills on an empty stomach. Also, the stimulants kill often reduce my appetite.
