Wondering what to buy for the drug user in your life? Worried about asking, because the gifts they want will make their addiction worse? Hoping to find something that might help with recovery from an addiction? Here are a best addiction recovery gifts for a drug user that won't worsen their habit.
Share an Experience
Although each person who uses, or is addicted to drugs, is an individual, so it is hard to generalize, many people who use drugs actively seek out sensory experiences and social contact through their drug use. Sharing an experience can be a meaningful way of spending time with someone who uses drugs, without reinforcing their addiction. On the contrary, a different kind of experience might just open them up to life having more to offer. It could be something outlandish, such as a flight in a hot air balloon -- the ultimate high -- or something as simple as a meal in a restaurant that is pleasant, accepting and provides an experimental sensory experience, such as a raw food cafe or one that features live music. Stay away from places that serve alcohol.
