The most common term of the word junkie (or junky) is to describe a drug addict. Also, people enthusiastic about any specific thing sometimes call themselves junkies (as in the term "science fiction junkie" or "political junkie").
Heroin has the street name "junk", which would offer an explanation of the word "junkie".
