Addiction Leads To Isolation

  • Most people who become addicted gradually gravitate to places where they can:
  • Readily access drugs and alcohol
  • Use without being seen or bothered by people who don't use or drink
  • Buy, use, and feel relatively safe from police
  • Be around people for whom using is the norm and their major purpose in life
  • Replace work or school with a role in the drug economy as a drug seller or a drug producer
