drug fiend

Married or not, I don't care—but one drug fiend plus hysterics and broken crockery is more than I will stand.

But in the heart of me, I knew myself to be like some drug-fiend, only permitted to indulge his destructive habit once a week.

Modern society presents few spectacles of suffering more acute than that endured by the drunken drug-fiend.

The drug fiend tried to kick free, stumbled, struck the table with his hips.

I was no more a drunkard than a woman who takes a dose of morphine during bodily agony is a drug fiend.
