Pain. Its a funny thing. Technically, real pain, the signal of a problem, of damage, would not be intensified. However, the body becomes stunned initially, and unable altogether later, to create the chemical that soothes the pain. Can't recall the name..but its the feel-good sort of thing. So, your body has less of an ability to counter the pain.
Its not more, you are just dealing with it less efficiently.
Like paper work while having a broken hand. Its not more work, just harder to do.
Naturally, this leads to stress which causes just about every problem in the book. Lovely thing, really.
Of course, that is how I'd imagine it to work.
As to why people start. The same reason a lot of things are done. To forget. At least, thats why I could see it. To forget this life..and all the mistakes..and to take a moment..clear of pain..and memories, of mistakes, no matter the price, to shed for that one moment the bounds that seemingly keep you so low..
Of course, it doesn't right the wrongs. You just think it does. But people, they are not so bright. They cannot see so clear. You've got to know that.
Its taking that double shot of vodka after a bad day. Its that bowl they light up on a rainy day. The heroin he's injecting, and the crack she's smoking.
Its that escape everyone is after..
But it really goes so much deeper. That you'll have to imagine. I'm not an addict. But I can understand one. I think.
And yes, Meth is probably a common one, despite never having seen anyone who used it, that I was aware of. Not really. But anything that uses tractor starting fluid as an ingredient will kill you. Meth simply lets you get high first. With all household ingredients..its easy to make, except for the combustion risks..you don't have to be bright to make a poison, you know.
..but really, I digress.
I miss the use of Blue Carpet. Used to name rooms by the color of carpet..>.> Blue Room, Green Room. So on and forth. Too many people have nothing but "Brown" and "Cream" rooms. A pity.
