Your Definition
A term referring to someone addicted to [psychoactive drugs], opiates in [particular], and especially those using heroin (an opiate). The term was coined during WW1 when heroin or morphine addicts collected and sold [scrap metal] (junk) for a higher price to buy their drugs. After this, heroin and morphine themselves began to be known as "junk" and the users of said drugs became known as "junkies".
