| Topic | It's hilarious when drug addicts don't know they're drug addicts |
| ChainedRedone 12/06/17 3:39:59 PM #55: | To clear up the misconception: Can you be an addict to medications you're prescribed? Yes, you can. Being an addict does NOT mean you're physically or psychologically dependent on them. Addiction requires drug use to have a serious negative impact. So if you're taking morphine daily for your back pain, regardless if you'll get withdrawals if you stop, you are not an addict unless it has a serious negative impact (eg. you're abusing them and snorting them and it's having a negative social impact). If she's taking her medications as prescribed and it is having no negative impact than she is not an addict. It's apparently the new edgelord thing to say people who take medications are drug addicts. Shows their ignorance. Sad_Face posted... That's the same logic they use to hook you onto opiates, which if you get addicted, can lead to heroin. And then death. This is bullshit. No reasonable person goes from a 2-week prescription of vicodin to heroin. The opioid scare is largely hysteria. --- David Mink.
