Yeah, you are.

Watch a commercial for Aleve. It shows a man using Tylenol instead for a day, to underline the lowered benefits of acetaminophen vs. naproxen. In the ad, he stops at least 4 times to take pills for a sore knee.

Doesn't that sound like addictive behavior? And they don't even try to hide it. Or mention that he's probably frying his kidneys in the process.
well duh

you are missing the point here, by definition 7 billion people on this planet all fall under this category, every single person on earth, Including you are drug addicts.

The term is accepted as someone who has problems, issues for rec purposes, which would then narrow it down to a small margin, not to every single person alive.

If you don't cycle you're basically an addict, psychological or not. If you run out and are filled with anxiety that's the same as withdrawal from rec drugs.

no trolling here, only you, it is is stupid to call someone who injects a drug addict with the intentions of labeling them in the same category as rec drugs like cocaine...We get it, by definition they are drug addicts but that is not what is meant when someone calls you a drug addict, what they really mean is to label you as a junkie, get with it brother.

Why is it stupid?

They use drugs.

They depend on them for the physiological effect those drugs transmit to their receptors, which leads to everything we associate with being on gear.

When they get off, they miss the effects and some go into a depression or worse.

They need other drugs to return to a normal hormonal profile, usually for the rest of their life.

They are, by definition, addicts of their substance of choice.

Care to revise or amplify your absurd assessment?

I guess if you want to define it in a certain way you could.  However I personally find it silly.  It's partially the steroid users fault though.  I was naive and though most steroid users like me never touched the rec drugs.  I never drink, not a drop "was drunk ONCE in my life when I was 18," never have taken a puff of a join in my life, didn't even know what weed smelled like until a couple of years ago, took some Oxycontin for an operation once and couldn't figure out for the life of me how anyone could like taking it as it gave me no high whatsoever, just sleepy.  Then I learned that I couldn't of been more wrong and that that it seems I would say 80-90% of all regular steroid users are/were addicted to rec drugs and generally have very addictive personalities.

Yes they are pyschologically addicted.

I've also learned that if you wanna keep some women around, the quickest way is to get their kids to like you. then my name is constantly brought up and they wanna go play basketball and whatever with me. always get a call from the girl asking if we "just wanna hang out with the kids, they miss you". always get laid real nice that night and then I disappear again.

Jesus man thats pretty shitty on both your parts. A woman should only introduce a partner once she is fully sure its a full serious long term relationship. And from your POV you should have some decency (even if the dumb whores dont) to not want to be in those kids lives and dissappear.

Yup....junk food and/or overeating can be a hell of drug.  Releases the endorpins and other "feel-good" chemicals.

I never took anything else while juicing, didn't drink once. I figured juicing was a big enough risk.

When i cleaned out i never went back to using. I liked how i looked clean. But most never come off.
