alcohol is one of the most excessively abused drugs, partially because of its addictive traits, and the fact that it is legal. illegal drugs are still abused, however some people may think f any use of illegal drugs as "abusive" while the users will probably disagree. sleeping pills and other opiates are legal but require a prescription. some of the prescribed patiens abuse the drug and take excessives amount to feel "good". prescription drugs are also sold on the street for people to illegally purchase and use for recreational purposes.
