<h2>Why do some people do drugs?</h2>by DavidBSmithWhy do people elect to use artificial stimulants when they're so bad for you? The reasons of drug addiction are as varied as the number of drugs that are available for use. There is no one cause for drug addiction just like there is no consistent profile of a drug user. People who have a history of drug use or misuse in their families are certainly at higher risk for drug addiction problems. It has been proven over and over again that the kids of alcohol addicted persons and drug-addicted persons are far more likely to exhibit addictive tendencies than offspring of non-dependent mothers and fathers. This is normally attributed largely to environmental factors and vicarious learning. The kids of those addicted to alcohol or drug users see their parents running from from problems abusing drugs.When they strike problems themselves they are naturally more likely than their peers to reach for the same crutch. This is not to say though that genetic reasons are immaterial. Certainly babies of dependent mothers can be born with a craving for alcohol or illicit drugs, and many think that the 'addictive personality' is something that is fixed in the genes of the addict. Sometimes however there is no sad contextual tale behind addiction. Often with an addiction to medically prescribed artificial stimulants, the addicted person commenced taking the prescription drugs because they were overcoming some type of legitimate ailment. Over time though they began to feel that they couldn't do without their dose, and that if they ceased taking their medication, the pain would reoccurr. People who have low self-esteem are certainly more prone to drug addiction. Such persons may feel they have no have control over over their lives and will turn to drugs as a way to cope. They often feel they can't please the persons around them so they have to transform themselves in order to fit in. The change is made easier by abusing drugs because the artificial stimulants make them them into somebody and something that they are not. Stress is regularly cited as the number one reason of drug addiction. Life is demanding for everybody. Some of us though are better able to cope with this than other people. Some turn to chemical stimulants as an easy way to get over their anxieties. Once a person starts consuming drugs to overcome stress it can be hard to break the cycle because the worries are still there once the high is gone, so the user believes he or she requires more artificial stimulants to bring extra support. That type of cycle can lead to long-term addiction. Part of the reason for the high incidence of drug addiction is purely because they are so easily accessible. Even for those who don't have a connection with their resident dealers of illicit drugs, alcohol and prescription drugs are easy to obtain and can prove just as effectual (and destructive). So why do persons use drugs? The easy answer is that people use drugs in order to control their moods, but as to why some people need so badly to control their moods while other people manage to cope without artificial stimulants, there is no straightforward answer.<h3>About the Author</h3>For more information on why people take drugs visit us at http://www.addictiontodrugs.org\n\nFor more information on <a href=\"http://www.addictiontodrugs.org\">why people take drugs</a> visit us at http://www.addictiontodrugs.org Article Source <a href="http://www.free-article-submit.com">Free Article Submit</a>
