Confusion

First of all, there are many different kind of drugs: stimulants, depressants, hallucinogens.... with different effects, so you cannot put them all in the same group Also some of them makes you addicted, others not.

Eg. Weed doesn't make you psy or body addicted, but there can appear psychological malfunctions, depends of personality so can't be generalized. Only two things can say for sure: after time you will just quit, or you will become addicted to heroine. But, I haven't seen people addicted to weed, they are addicted to weed just like to chocolate.

But, when you take cocaine as example it is different. Cocaine imitates dopamine effect (dopamine is neuro-transmitter and every person has it in body) that makes good feeling. Cocaine forces body to produce more dopamine, and brain becomes overwhelmed by dopamine quantity.When effects disappear brain is not able to produce normal quantity of dopamine because it was overloaded, feeling is not good, and person needs more.

Hallucinogens (lsd, mescalin, shrooms)- you cannot become addicted, and you will give up after first bad trip, senses will lie to you, can be bad, can be good, and if you have psychotic predispositions, you can easily go crazy. They distort your brain.
When someone die by taking hallucinogens, he didn't want to commit suicide, his senses lied him ("it is not 5th floor, it is 1st, i can jump")

Heroine doesn't make you psychical addicted, but makes your body addicted very heavily.... When people overdose by heroine - that are never intended suicides, they just take too much...


You will sooner become addicted on alcohol than on any drug cause it is legal and it makes you addicted faster.
