What the junkie feels?

At first, after taking the drug, the addict really experiences pleasure, called euphoria. He relaxes, all problems disappear, life seems pink. If a person experiences pain, it subsides (that is why drugs are used in medicine for anesthesia), if he was concerned, irritated, angry, becoming affable and cheerful.

After a few hours - a maximum of 12 - the action of the drug ends, and all problems are piling up with renewed vigor. If a person takes drugs for a long time, the time of euphoria shortens each time and eventually can reach several minutes. A few more hours the addict feels less tolerant, and then a painful "breaking" begins, what is this you already know. A drug addict takes drugs no longer for pleasure, but in order to avoid "breaking".

He lives like a squirrel in a wheel - the faster it runs, the faster the wheel turns, and the faster it needs to run so as not to fall. Similarly, a drug addict - to avoid "breaking", he has to take the drug more and more often. Gradually, the addict comes to complete exhaustion, stops eating and sleeping. He already curses the drug, he dreams of quitting, but he can not because he has terrible pains without the next dose.
