i dont think mixing up usage is really the way to avoid addiction.. it may be a way to prolong addiction... for example what if you mix usage up between x,y and z substances that only cause a user to become psychologically addicted. in that case u dont become addicted to the drug just the high produced by the drug(s). say drugs x,y,z all have similar highs in the end u end up addicted to them all. you just might not think you are because as u say "u mix up ur drug use"...
the key to avoiding drug addiction, i believe, lies in will power, nothing more nothing less.
minimal responsible usage is probably the best way to avoid addiction unfortunately for those who like drugs we all know minimal resposible usage isnt always as much fun as we'd like it to be and it isnt always as easy as it sounds.
we have to keep in mind that Its not use of a substance alone that causes one to be addicted its patterns of misuse and abuse that lead you there regardless of substance. when we take a drug, any drug, any number of times, we open ourselves up to those risks and the chances of avoiding them are almost slim to none for so many people. the more we do a substance the greater the risk for addiction.
its funny tho. i know some people that stick to only one substance and they put themselves on a schedule, and they dont use between their designated times, however everytime they do use they end up getting more and more..
does anyone else think this is absolutely rediculous? i mean it totally defeats the purpose imo.
