How Do You Start Being a Drug Addict?

Question by ?Greed?: How do you start being a drug addict?
There seems to be an increase in the number of addicts.

How does this happen?
I am educated about the neurobiology aspects – but to make it clear — rather naïve about certain aspects of society. Thanks for your concern over my physical and mental health.

This usually is a taboo subject to honestly discuss directly with users in public. Some have suggested situational (prescriptions), sociological (group & recreational activities), or personal reasons.

I am curious about specifically why people started (normally no physical dependency is present yet.).

I will repost a better-phrased question.
