Question by theopholismmviii: I need advice on drug abuse….?
My brother has been taking vicodin regularly for the past ten years,he sometimes tells me he feels he’s addicted but because he doesn’t feel its extreme he won’t give it up, In all honesty he doesn’t hurt other people and he doesn’t rob people or steal for the pills,but I can see a difference in him he doesn’t and I don’t know what to say to him to make him see what he’s doing to himself,he doesn’t leave the house and is afraid to talk to people other than his immediate family, I love him very much and don’t want to alienate him but I am afraid for is health,.am i just being overbearing?

Why Do We Continue Drug Prohibition When Harm Minimisation Is a Proven Success?
Question by Comrade Otto: Why do we continue drug prohibition when harm minimisation is a proven success?
In 2001 in Portugal possession of all drugs was decriminalised. So instead of shipping drug users off to jail to become criminals they were treated as addicts like they should be and the issue is now a health issue.
HIV rates, overdoses, crime, drug use amongst teenagers have all dropped

Drug Addictions?
Question by epiphonegirl: Drug addictions?
Do you think it is possible to be addicted to drugs in a different sense than being addicted to one specific drug?
What I mean is…do you think people who drink and do drugs are simply addicted to being high, not feeling things, and not dealing with problems?
Yes, crack, coke, etc. cause strong physical addictions, but would people become addicted to them if they weren’t desperate to get high?
Personally I think so.
I smoke weed, and I did coke one day because my dude said he could get me coke but not weed at the moment.
I started smoking weed cuz I drink.
