The Drug Users

A drug abuser is some one who takes a drug for the right reason however they usually take too much. Drug abusers usually take over-the-counter drugs or percription drugs. For example: If a man has trouble sleeping he can go to a doctor and the doctor will percribe him a sleeping pill. However the doctor would usually tell him to take once a night only when he has trouble sleeping. This man would then take the pill every night, even when he has no trouble sleeping, and will usually tae 3 or 4. At this point the man is abusing the drug.

A drug misuser is some one who takes the drug for the wrong reason. In this case people usually take a drug, that has a medical use and use it to get a high or an energy boost. This is common with pills such as meth or pain killers. For example: A person is feeling depressed and is looking for something to make him feeling energized or something to make him high. So to do this the person finds a Methamphetamine pill, which is usually ment for people who are working late at night to stay awake. This pill makes him energetic so that he feels invinsible. Although this drug benefited him then, he was misusing the drug.

A recreational drug user is some one who uses the drug to have a good time. These people usually use illegal drugs, and simply use them to get high. For example: a person could say to him self "I'm going to get high this weekend", this person is not using the drug because he is addicted or because he needs it, he is simply using it because he wants to. After using the drug, the person will probably not think about it for a while, until he decides to "get high" again. In this senario the person is using the drug recreationally.
