Is Gold Dust Woman a song about drugs?

But could it also be a break up song since it appeared on Fleetwood Macs break up album "Rumours" the lyrics "Did she make you cry make you break down shatter your illusions of love and is it over now do you know how to pick up the pieces and go home" sounds like Stevie Nicks is talking about Lindsey Buckingham.

It seems to be a mix of the two - a song about getting over a bad relationship and falling into drug usage. You could also think of it as being about a dangerous relationship in general, with either a person or an addiction.
Apparently the song made sense at the time, and like most such songs, its current meaning is up to interpretation.
