> Every human who takes these drugs will suffer through the misery.
Blatantly false. Not everyone you uses XYZ drug ends up a hopeless addict. The vast majority of people use the drug with no long term negative effects addiction, including methamphetamine, heroin, cocaine et al
> No such thing as "I'm too strong to be affected by this drug." (heroin, crystal meth.)
Sure they will effect you
> Or "I can quit whenever I want." (opium, flakka.)
Within addiction, sure. Non-addiction use, false. You can stop whenever you want. Getting addicted to a substance is not as easy as people think. You need to be using through the day for multiple days in a row. You can use heroin every weekend without getting addicted, so long as you stop during the week
> Take X drug, it will have Y effect on every human
To an extent, different people can vary degrees of effects from the same dose when tolerance is not an issue
