most people with serious drug addictions have bad lives (not much money/in debt, live in a bad neighbourhood, not healthy or happy etc... which do you think causes which in most cases?  
the unhappy life causes them to take drugs
the drugs cause an unhappy life

i mean in some cases it would be different but just in general.

It just different for everyone. Personally, the person I know who was addicted to drugs at some point took them to get rid of pains that they had in their stomach. They took heroin and forgot everything...it made them not feel so sick.

I feel so dead inside sometimes

Good intentions are often misunderstood

I believe it is more of the drugs causing the lifestyle, majority of people that are unhappy do not turn to drugs.

Generally, I'd say addicts are mostly poor, unhealthy and unhappy because of the drug addiction, because that's what a drug addiction will do to you most of the time. You spend all your money on it. It fucks up your health and causes depression while you're not on it. Meth addiction made me poor, underweight, sleep deprived, psychotic and very unhappy.

I know a few coke addicts that had wonderful lives before they started doing the drug. They just wanted to "see what it was like." Now they can't stop using it.

Drugs cause the lifestyle.
I've seen very many "well off" people get caught up in drugs then its just a downhill spiral from there.

Then again i know other people who have been doing drugs for years and are still able to mantain a good job and a stable life.

guess it just depends.

my friend got into drugs when he was in 7th grade, I know its not like a big deal because some kids started younger, but people always blame his life on drugs, even though he was that way before the drugs. I mean, whatever helps him cope with his life. I'm okay with it and I stick up for him when people say shit, I have to be there for him because I might be one of the only ones who knows what he has to deal with.

I think its bad lives and drugs lead to worse.
I haven't met someone yet who didn't have a bad life and then did drugs and became poor and shit. Its usually the people who started because they were having trouble
