¿Quién es un adicto?

La mayoría no tenemos que pensar dos veces esta pregunta. ¡Conocemos la respuesta! Toda nuestra vida y nuestros pensamientos giraban, de una u otra forma, en torno a las drogas, cómo obtenerlas, cómo consumirlas y el modo de conseguir más. Vivíamos para consumirlas y las consumíamos para vivir. En síntesis, una persona adicta es aquella cuya vida está controlada por las drogas. Estamos en las garras de una enfermedad crónica y progresiva que nos arrastra invariablemente a los mismos lugares: cárceles, hospitales y la muerte.
