Why do drug addicts take more and more drugs to get the same effect?

Drug addicts take more and more drugs because as they do more and more of any particular drug they begin building up a tolerance to it. That means they have to take more and more of the drug to get the same high. This is both what gets a person addicted in many cases, and why people end up doing more and more drugs.

Why drug addicts ingest so much sugar?
It all comes down to endorphins... Drugs release endorphins, early on in our drug-using days. The amount that gets released, slowly diminishes over time; that's why addicts must continuously use more and more of the substance, to get the same "high". Sugar also releases endorphins, but our tolerance doesn't quickly build, like it does with the drugs.
