Drug problem or something else?

When people develop or experience a problem with drugs, it is often assumed to be a "drug problem" that they have.
This is almost never the case, and too 'lazy' a label, for something that is usually more complicated.
In most cases, people use drugs either for pleasure, or to help fix another problem (boredom, trauma, tiredness, over-thinky brain, unmanageable emotions, other mental health or behavioral problems.
There are a lot of drugs on the planet, and a lot of these drugs "fix" a lot of the problems listed above. With consequences, absolutely, but the purpose for using the drugs is very often, to solve that other problem.
In this video, I put that into a chemsex perspective.

Thank you for this. I found that I recall some of my most enjoyable sexual experiences when I was sober. When I use I don't usually find myself pursuing sexual gratification all the time, but those reasons need such urgent inquiries.
