We shouldn't forget that a measurably significant percentage of the population is almost guaranteed to become drug addicts provided any access to drugs. This is due to a variety of mental and neurological defects that result in addiction craving behavior and a near complete absence of inhibition regulation. This is tricky because for these people you cannot fight demand and counseling will not work as the problem is the hardware not the personality. The only partial solution is certain forms of medications and the only absolute solution is to forcefully separate that population from addictive substances and other people eager seeking such substances.
- ajmurmann 3y agoFor a discussion of how likely someone is to behind addicted it's crucial to differentiate between drugs. Meth and fentanyl are extremely addictive. It's not only mental, but also a strong physical addiction. I understand that withdrawal from these drugs mashes you feel liked you are gonna die. Fent and meth are a huge problem and IMO need to be treated very harshly whereas LSD, mushrooms and marijuana aren't physically addictive at all and come with comparatively little problems.
