I do use drugs and alcohol in a fairly sensible manner... most of the time. I have no addictions presently. I used to and I've been unhappy (excluding when high) for a long time. I function OK but I feel so empty and it makes me crave being drunk or on a lot of Valium, on E, whatever. I'm just a self-medicator I guess.

I don't need to be addicted to alcohol or drugs to crave them because when you're unhappy it's like you crave anything that will take it away. I don't use compulsively, these feelings just worry me. Needing to escape so bad.

Honestly, do you [feel the need to] self-medicate? Answer anonymous if you're uncomfortable admitting it openly.

I dont think he meant tobacco. as it is a drug but it does not induce euphoria..

I did mean intoxicating drugs but people do self-medicate with tobacco. It's proven that unhappy people smoke more cigarettes. When I used to smoke cigarettes were comforting. Like a hug or something.

I medicate with medicine prescribed to me which many use recreationally, if that makes sense.
