I know a runner who abuses OTC painkillers to make running easier...but not prescription drugs.

I mean, I might. How would I know if I did? People don't just go running around shouting about their addiction to Xanax.

If they've been soon it for years, it get noticeable that something's going on. Like their eyes are always red, motor skill become worse, stuff like that. You might not be able to tell if it's prescription drugs, but you can tell they're definitely on something.

Actually several of my closer family members do, and at least one of my ex's used to.

Do you count it as abusing if its just very rarely taking something they aren't prescribed? I know some of those, but no serious, repeating abusers.

I used to abuse prescription drugs. Until I overdosed and felt like I was dying... I haven't done it since. Do not recommend it whatsoever.

My ex-boyfriend did every prescription drug he could get his hands on. And he abused his own prescribed medication. He's a loser.
