While specific incentives differ from person to person, generally speaking, people start using drugs to escape or mask pain.
In some individuals, the onset of drug use can be from untreated psychiatric issues including anxiety and depression. The rush of pleasure from using drugs can provide temporary solace from suffering, which can stem from many mental health or other issues including the following:
Trauma or abuse
Mental illness
Low self-esteem
Poverty
Relationship problems
Loss of a loved one
Stress
Chronic pain or medical conditions
But whatever their reason for starting, once addiction sets in, the disease usually spirals more and more out of their control
