Addiction to Drugs Physical or Mental?
Question by Omar: addiction to drugs physical or mental?
Is addiction to stimulant drugs a physical or mental addiction?
Best answer:
Answer by .
Depends. And is probably a mixture of both. With a drug like cocaine, if you have been taking it a lot, and then you don’t have any, you get a itchy desperate feeling like you’ve got to have some more. Same with cigarettes or alcohol, your body gets used to having it and when it doesn’t, it starts to withdraw and you want mor to stop the feeling of discomfort. But then I’d say that the onset of the addiction comes from a mental perspective. Say with a drug like weed, the physical withdraw isn’t uncomfortable, you just rely on it mentally.
I Have a Question Concerning Drug Testing.?
Question by autustle: I have a question concerning drug testing.?
I recently was given a drug test by my employer. I tested positive for Cocaine. I was given the drug test on the day I returned from a 9 day long vacation. I traveled all over northern California and was offered some Cocaine. I work at a Walmart Distribution Center in Alabama. The company has a random drug testing policy. I do not understand how a company could test for drugs after a person is returning from vacation. I was on my own free time. I was fired from my job for testing positive. I do not see why I should be fired for drug use on vacation. I rarely do drugs. At the most I might smoke pot or the occasional line of coke 3 or 4 times a year.
