Who is a substance abuser?
A substance abuser is a patient that due to constant use of Narcotics has destroyed his or her body (city of existence) and has ruined the life of himself and the people around him.
Whether this act is done knowingly or unknowingly makes no difference, as both situations demonstrate lack of awareness.
The damage on the physical body includes the destructions of the opiate like producing system, anti-pain system and other crucial entities present in the body.
As far as universal perception or spiritual outlook on life is concerned, due to dependency on Narcotics and imbalance in both physique and psyche (mind), a world full of fear, anxiety, stress, worry and humiliation, surrounds the substance abuser.
To repair 90% of the structures of the body and mind, an eleven month period is required and for universal perception, God knows.
