He was addicted due to excruciating pain for a severe back and neck injury.
This not exactly recreational use. Sounds more like desperation for pain relief.

More than likely he had several doctors unaware of cross prescribing of each doctor.Perhaps---in which case he wasn't breaking the letter of the law but was slyly working the system.

Where did I say it was?

It does not matter how he became addicted...he is addicted. Making a distinction between a "good junkie" and a "bad junkie" is a cop out and for Rush's sake I hope is not listening to that excuse anymore. That attitude of not being a "real" junkie probably contributed to his problem. Hopefully Rush will be able to overcome his problem and his followers will understand that drug addiction is not just for inner-city crackheads or trailer-park speed freaks.
We should also pray for Marta, who has likely suffered with her husband's addiction in ways that no one knows.
