Technically yes, I sometimes take Tylenol 3 or vicodin for my arm (I had surgery and have pain and arthritis in it.  Now if you mean do I use them to get high no but its still abuse if your not prescribed them.

Nothing major, just vicodin at parties sometimes.  I'm friends with a lot of people who have done somas and various other pills, but I really don't.

Are we talking the medical definition of abuse or the psychological definition of abuse because they are 2 totally different things.

The only drug I abuse is cannabis.
