I don't even like the term addict, it pushes people like objects, into imaginary boxes and stigma and somehow justifies treating them like litteral trash for some people.
I also find it very sad and heartbreaking that people who got dependant on substances, are being called junkies. Are they junk? Are they trash? Is that how we treat those people, who were not so fortunate to have a life that is not filled with suffering, disease or trauma? people who feel so desperate, who are in so much pain and with no help, that they had to turn to alcohol, heroin, painkillers, or whatever drug to keep going and cope with this horrible reality?
