The drug constitutes a the main aprt of this person's needs. Like I need food, heat,transportation, tax money, entertainment. and etc. This person needs DRUG. Everything else will fall in place, without Drug no living with that person. It may start out as a plaesurable thing and in some cases people can control it that way, but usually it becomes a burden on many levels, to all around the the addict. Could be why some are isolated and homeless.

The same way I would define someone addicted to coffee, an over the counter drug, or any other drug. One is just as bad as the other. Or Business people as most of them take pills to live each day by or boozers that drink all day in their fine offices. So many names to define an addicted person.

I define a drug addict as someone who uses drugs despite every desire and motivation not to use them.

I don't know anyone who uses drugs so for me anyone who uses drugs is a drug addict. I may be wrong...from what I've read here and there, not all drug users are drug addicts ...but I find that hard to believe.

In my opinion ; an addict is anyone who is DEPENDENT on a drug etc in order to get by in their life .... Like, I know someone who HAS to have a JOINT every morning before going to work every day ... so he won't get stressed out . OR; the guy who has to do a piece of rock Cocaine to get thru the day .... Or even myself ... after two or three days ; I HAVE to have ice cream to relax myself ... MY Addiction.
