It's a psychological addition of being stoned and slightly detached from reality - no different to people munching pills every weekend at a rave or drinking enough to be tipsy (or wasted, if that's your thing)
Psychological addition [...] no different to people munching pills every weekend at a rave or drinking enough to be tipsy (or wasted, if that's your thing)
I can assure you pills and alcohol are much more than a psychological addiction.
The majority of people addicted to drugs have neurodevelopmental issues from childhood. A significant part have preexisting mental illness of one sort or another.
You can call it escapism because that would make sense to you if you were doing drugs, but for most addicts, it’s about being able to feel and act normal, like the others.
