Ok so if all of you are right and I am an addict, then what separates me from casual drug users who are surely also susceptible to temptation from time to time? I never feel guilty after scoring, I never feel as though I'm doing something wrong or that I have to justify my use. I enjoy heroin in moderation and I often find myself in an environment where the possibility of scoring is very high - but I chose not to, simply because I don't want to get caught. How am I different from non-addicted drug users? I feel like just because it's heroin that you're more likely to assume I'm an addict. I could be totally wrong though.

A big factor here is that you're using your parents' money to pay for your heroin, when they don't want you to.
I wouldn't worry too much about whether people think you qualify as being milded psychologically addicted or not. If you read my posts again you'll see that I actually share your logic for the most part but its all academic really.
I actually asked the same question as you have before on a heroin thread, though posed in a less personal way - 'is it possible to keep chipping and get away with it?' The answer I got from an over whelming number of people was that they pretty much thought it would catch up with anyone in the end as it had for them.
I'm not in a place to give anyone advice on anything really but sometimes its worth thinking about whether you can really live with the losses when you decide to roll the dice.

Out of curiosity is this the general situation for all uni students now? I can see this argument a bit but I'd feel like a bit of knob agreeing with it purely from the fact that when I was at uni just a few years back there was no one there who had to live off their parents. Must be these top up fees.

Yes I would agree with that statement that most people would think that just because your using heroin your an addict.
Thing is, nothing is going to change that. You cannot change the perception of heroin use.
