Do You Believe That Drug Addiction Is Filling a Void?

Question by Theory: do you believe that drug addiction is filling a void?
i believe that drug addiction is either a filler or a crutch. meaning, every drug addict is either using his drug of choice to fill a void in their life, OR to run away from something.

i know because i used to be a drug addict myself, and i’ve relapsed 2 days ago.

prior to relapsing i was clean for over a year. then suddenly a few weeks ago all my friends left me and my girlfriend left me (for unrelated reasons). both have no desire to talk to me.

i am turning 20 on saturday. i am alone and lost and depressed.

when i’m high on opiates i am totally okay with what’s going on in my life. when i’m not on opiates i sit on the computer miserable.

Answer by James
Well, I found on prescription Lortab that it wasn’t really fun. I took it for an injury, and needed it, but had some left over. Sometimes it would make me “happy” for about 15 or 20 minutes, but then I would just be tired. Yes, it DID numb my psyche–I didn’t feel emotional pain or “give a shit” when I took it.

I know when I lost a job, I sort of wished I had some pot or Lortab, but I didn’t go look for it and didn’t miss not having it. I got another job. I manage to “sleep off” my little depressed states and make the best of each day.
