Abstract
AbstractThis chapter examines how the influence of drugs is lived and embodied, and how the fusion of bodies and drugs creates proximities to and distances from other bodies and objects in both time and space. The temporal rhythm of restraint and release that is key in modern consumer societies is analysed in relation to drug use, along with the spatial organisation of the appropriate and the inappropriate. This organisation means that drug use is expected in certain times and places, while in others it is hidden. Carolina describes the work of hiding as central to her previous everyday life as someone who used amphetamines, which furthers the discussion of the spatial exclusion of people who use drugs initiated in the previous chapter.
