Is it true addiction of 1 drug leads to addiction of another drug?

no, not in all cases. but i would say in most cases yes, it depends on the persons decisions, personality and problems. though this is common.

mostly because 1. if someone has taken a drug over time to cure a certain problem and has continued to take it for other problems. then instead of learning to deal with problems the natural way, they just take the drug. over time this behavoir leads people into depending on taking something to deal with lifes issues. so if someone stops 1 drug addiction, they will often move onto another because that how the are used to dealing with things

2. as soon as you have crossed the line of entering the drug world, often the limits people used to have on things tend to quickly break down, then something that was in your head previously prohibited, quickly becomes allowed and ok. therefore if someones given up a drug, in their head the world is opened up to being ok there feeling like its ok to go into another one

i answer this because this is what i have found has happened to me.. but everybody is different

Is every drug addicting?

I don't know who answered this question last but they did horribly and whatever they wrote should be ignored.

There are two types of dependencies, either of which pertains to nearly every drug on earth but not necessarily 100% of them. Physical dependence is the typical addiction people associate with drugs, this kind of addiction can cause pain and/or illness within the addicted person if they discontinue their habitual drug use. This is also known as withdraw. Common physically addictive drugs include cigarettes, heroin, most prescription painkillers, amphetamines and so on...

Then there is psychological addiction, which in effect could take hold concerning anything. When people who are psychologically addicted stop using their drug they may falsely believe that they need the drug but lack any physical troubles such as sickness, headaches, etc... In other words their addiction is mostly in their heads. Marijuana, cigarettes, and ecstasy are some of the primary examples of such dependencies. Although stopping habitual use of the drug may not cause sickness, it could cause the user to believe they need to use more of it because that's how it's always been.

And yes, drugs can be both physically and mentally addictive. In short, no, not all drugs are addictive.
