Title explains it all. Does caffeine count? Weed? Prescribed psych medication that are also recreational drugs? Psych meds that aren't recreational at all like Zoloft? Vitamins and supplements. Why?

I will post my opinion on the topic tommorow I got my ass kicked at work today.

When I hear "drug fix"... I consider it to be someone taking whatever their DOC is; just enough to get your fix and get by, not high out of your mind.

So I guess I hear the word in a different context than the OPer.

Used in a sentence: "Gotta get my fix" Latin for: You're probably a junkie cuz most druggies barely use the phrase.



edit: shit.. dictionary.com agrees with me for once

Fix

noun

Slang.
a.
an injection of heroin or other narcotic.
b.
the narcotic or amount of narcotic injected.
c.
a compulsively sought dose or infusion of something: to need one's daily fix of soap operas on TV.

I would say it includes any substance that you feel is relevant to your well being. It also has to make you uncomfortable, even if only psychologically, to not ingest. While "fix" is usually reserved for narcotics and physically addicting substances I think we need to include mentally addicting things such as taking gingko biloba or fish oil. I know I'm pissed I don't have my fish oil this morning. I don't typically include this kind of thing in the morning or the nightly fix threads in DC. The reason being I feel like some people will not want to read about my fish oil and multi-vitamin or the fact that I love drinking tea. But I don't mind any addition of vitamins, supplements, or even that slice of cold pizza you include. Its all part of what makes you get out of bed in the morning, or into the bed at night.
 
for me it's either heroin or methamphetamine. Don't have a physical dependency like I used to back when I was shooting dope every few hours and don't tweak out as much as I used to, but they both appeal me. As long as I have one or the other, I'm fine, but personally I love having meth and heroin mixed up in a rig. I personally find cocaine and heroin more euphoric, but meth and heroin is absolutely great for maintaining pain and energy for me because they both last for a good while in comparison to cocaine. Not too tweaked, not nodding off. No pain, no tiredness while feeling like it's a perfect day and I find that it's great for work, but my psychological addiction to this feeling gets quite annoying at times, making me have a tantrum when I'm by myself or getting frustrated when I can't get anything.

Fucking A, I guess I kind of deserve it for being curious to try two highly addictive substances in the past. Relapse is a hell of a thing. I plan on going on a hiatus from drug use soon, so that I can get my shit together before I relive the past and become a full-blown addict again. So far I'm good when it comes to physical dependency, but if I'm getting frustrated often for not having any meth or heroin, then I'm on a slippery fucking slope. It's a good time to fix things before it becomes too late, so I got some work to do.

I can agree with that.

Yesterday (as with most days) it was DXM; I've been taking it every 2 days as an antidepressant. If I go longer than two days without it, I'll start to get the damn brain zaps. Anyway, yesterday they were hitting pretty hard so I took 140 mg DXM over the course of several hours. Before dinner I ate the last of the cannafrosting I had made a week previous, and dayam! Soon enough I was high as a kite and tripping quite nicely. I got my "fix" alright :)

Exactly... and more often than not the phrase is used as sort of relating to junkies and junky-ness, I guess. It's what you do, take or whatever just to feel "right" again, but not necessarily high. It's just a "fix," and that's all.

EDIT: And it's not something I would ever use, unless jokingly maybe, to refer to weed, coffee (caffeine), or anything that isn't heroin or maybe crack.
