one word: Endorphins\n\n"Besides behaving as a pain regulator, endorphins are also thought to be connected to physiological processes including euphoric feelings, appetite modulation, and the release of sex hormones."\n\n\nBasically, there's a "high" associated with sex.  It's the same reason druggies go "up the ladder" from softer to harder drugs.

Describing it is difficult and depends on your perspective in life.  Basically, it's a very intense period of didactic study (classwork) accompanied by increasing amounts of time encoutering patients to learn clinical medicine.  These are interspersed with various efforts to learn medical ethics, clinical or lab research, information about medical finances, legal liability, etc.  The workload is incredibly high, but the education is incredibly rewarding.\n\nIf your name is "Dr Stacy," shouldn't you know the answer to this question?

Addiction can be viewed in a couple of different ways.\nAccording to the DSM-IV™ (1994, p. 181), substance dependence is a maladaptive pattern of substance use. There must be 3 (or more) of the following occurring at any time in the same 12-month period:\n\n    * Tolerance;\n    * Withdrawal;\n    * Use of larger amounts or over a longer period than was intended;\n    * Persistent desire (craving);\n    * Preoccupation;\n    * Important activities are given up;\n    * Use continues despite persistent problems (physical or psychological) that are caused or exacerbated by the substance). \n\n1) The substance dependence is specified as being with (evidence of tolerance or withdrawal) or without physiological dependence.\n\n2) The substance dependence is specified according to course, e.g. remission status, use of agonist therapy, or in a controlled environment.\n\nAccording to the ICD-10 Classification of Mental and Behavioural Disorders (1994, pp. 79-81), diagnosis of the Dependence Syndrome involves three or more of the following, occurring together for at least one month, or repeatedly within a 12-month period:\n\n    * Compulsion;\n    * Impaired capacity to control substance use;\n    * Physiological withdrawal;\n    * Tolerance;\n    * Preoccupation;\n    * Continued use despite harmful consequences. \n\n1) May be specified by current status of abstinence, client placement in a controlled environment, use of replacement drug, e.g. methadone, blocking drugs, e.g. naltrexone, or currently active.\n\n2) Further specifiers, if desired, are continuous or episodic use.\n\n\nThere is also addictive personality disorder.\nAccording to the DSM, addiction is indeed, a disease.

I assume you're looking for articles and pictures online.  There are a couple of sites that may be helpful.  PubMed is a medical information database that should have articles on drug abuse.  Scirus is a science related search engine that should turn up a variety of resources on drugs. Try searching using the terms "drug abuse" or "hallucinogens."  Searching for one of these terms and "self injury" may also help.  Your local public library may also have some books or articles that would be helpful.  Ask for assistance at the reference desk, the librarians there will be so used to hearing strange questions that they won't bat an eyelash at your question.  Many libraries have online reference now, so you may not even have to leave your computer.

Opium is, well, opium.  There is no one drug or chemical compound in opium.\n\nAccording to Wikipedia, it consists of multiple alkaloids including morphine and codeine papaverine.\n\nRather than plagarise the article, you can read for yourself:

Morphine is a painkiller. The rest is self-explanatory.
