First of all, allow me to share my sympathy for you and your wife. I can tell that you’re a caring person and that’s part of maintaining a stable relationship for any period of time. From what I’ve gathered from your story, it seems that you truly care a whole lot about your wife and what could happen if this problem is not stopped, and you need advice handling the issue. \nSecondly, if you stop caring for her she will only get worse. People that become addicted to drugs and alcohol usually have their reasons behind the substance abuse. Since this all started before you came along, you must talk to her and find out when she started abusing drugs and why. She needs to know that you care and love her. I suggest calling a drug abuse councilor and scheduling an appointment with her to get the help that she needs. Don’t let her start a program and quit, you must encourage her in every way possible and keep an eye out for symptoms of withdraws/cravings from substance so she wont be in a situation where she has no control.\nI’m 18 years old but have had psychical addictions to pills since I was about 12. Amphetamines (adderall) are dangerous and it took a really special friend to show me I was killing myself and letting my family down every day. Finally I got off of everything and remain clean for the last 5 months or so. But back to your wife, I really wish you and her the best of luck and PLEASE feel FREE to contact me with ANY questions, comments, or to ask my opinion! Hope to hear back, please inform me how everything goes!\nwebmaster@techbrian.com

The most addictive drug out there is nicotine. The most addictive illegal (or 'Street' drug) is the smoked version of Meth.\n\nHere is a list of addictive drugs from the most addictive to the least from my abnormal psychology book...\n\nNicotine\nIce, Glass (smoked methamphetamine)\nCrack\nCrystal Meth (injected methamphetamine)\nValium (diazepam, a common prescription drug)\nQuaalude\nSeconal\nAlcohol\nHeroine\nCrank (amphetamine taken nasally)\nCocaine\nCaffeine\nPCP\nMarijuana\nEcstasy\nPsilocybin Mushrooms\nLSD\nMescaline\n\nHope that helps put some perspective on it.\n\nAnything that is addictive, is so because it has a side effect that screws up the nervous system in some way.\n\n1. Cocaine causes rushes of dopamine (used to transmit pleasure sensations between neurons) called a 'high'.\n2. To protect themselves from dopamine rushes the neurons allow dopamine receptors on their membranes to die off.\n3. When a person is not taking cocaine their dopamine levels return to normal but the person feels depressed because the normal levels are absorbed less than normal since the receptors have been reduced.\n4. This causes the person to desire the drug to achieve the pleasure again.\n5. This also means that to achieve the same 'high' as before, larger amounts of cocaine are needed since there are less receptors for it.\n6. The cycle continues until the person quits cold turkey and allows the body to regrow some of the dopamine receptors, but they will never return to the original levels which means the cocaine addict is 'at risk', or addicted at some level for their entire life.

Well, according to the information I have :\n\n"If you stop taking this medication suddenly, you may experience some withdrawal effects."\n\nWhich to me means that it IS possibly addictive.  You can only have WITHDRAWAL from something that you are addicted to i.e. alcohol, nicotine, heroine, etc.

Crystal Meth for obesity and Heroin for pain killing. Along with LSD for treating Psychiatric Disorders. Marijuanna for anxiety. Cocaine for lethargy. XTC for a slow libido.

I feel it is possible mentally but have no proof that they are physically addicting.  I have prescription strength ibuprofen and take it pretty regular.  As far as I know there are no physical addictions related to ibuprofen, but if it works as well for you as it does me, it can be mentally addicting.  Too much of anything is bad for your health, so try and "maintain" with the ibuprofen.

Cocaine is a very addictive drug, although at first it doesn't seem as though it could be addictive.  It is sometimes extremely fun, and for this reason it is very easy to become dependent on it.  It mostly extremely sucks, however.  So: don't do it at all.  Smoke pot if you like; try acid in the right setting, but don't fool around with physically addictive drugs such as cocaine or heroin.  For many folks, alcohol can be nearly as addictive.\n\nIt's just not worth the grief, believe me.

Not all meds are chemically or physically addicting. Theres a stigma on mental health everybody thinks for some reason it can be fixed by god.. sooo don't worry about it.. if you are doing better that's all that matters. It's very likely someday you will no longer need medication.

Ohhhhhh, prolly.\nI'm addicted to cigarettes, I curbed an addiction to alcohol once, when I realized I "need a beer" in order to release the stress of the moment.  I mainlined meth for a while.  I've always been a little boy-crazy, and was once addicted to love (I convinced myself that it was there many times before I realized that it was just what I desperately wanted and thought I needed), and yes, I think I'm probably addicted to Y!Answers now, too.  I sit here, and I'm so bored, and I have no questions in mind to post, and am so braindead that I can't even provide a good answer to anyone, and I know what I need to do around the house, but I can't peel myself away to do it, and next thing I know it's midnight.  Go figure.

Its the top of the drug "highs" right now. Addicts look for bigger and better drugs no matter the physical results.

Only pot and coke. I stopped though. Made me slow and I'm not as fun as I used to be. I hate myself. The first time I tries pot, I think it was laced with some other shit. Big mistake. Don't do drugs, it's a waste of time. Does alcohol count as one of the drugs you want to know?

Yes, you can get addicted to just about anything, and I bet it can ruin your life the same way hard drugs can. It's the same as alcohol and cigarettes - why are they legal? Because so may people use it and like it and they would be outraged if they had it taken away. People like to think that because it is legal they don't have a problem and they have this attitude that they are so much better than other addicts whose drug of choice is crack or heroin or meth. If it's legal people can feel less guilty.

Because the substance addicted to has limited the brains ability to think clearly. Addiction is a term for a substance that has taken control over a person's ability to control thier own thoughts and speak or act in a rational manner...

No one wants to be a drug addict or alcoholic, but this doesn’t stop people from getting addicted. The most commonly asked question is simply - how? How could my son, daughter, father, sister, or brother become a liar, a thief, someone who cannot be trusted? How could this happen? And why won’t they stop?\n\nThe first thing you must understand about addiction is that alcohol and addictive drugs are basically painkillers.  They chemically kill physical or emotional pain and alter the mind’s perception of reality.  They make people numb.\n\nFor drugs to be attractive to a person there must first be some underlying unhappiness, sense of hopelessness, or physical pain.

Yes I guess it could be true, addicted to caffeine, drugs, pain killers, sex, masturbation, porn, food, gambling, lying, internet, and much more.
