How Well Do you Know Drug Addiction
2
  • It is a basic knowledge that drugs are addicting,
    in fact there are a lot of people who are
    dependent on using drugs. However, others just
    can't understand how or why other individuals
    can't stop taking drugs when all they can do is
    just put an end to it.

  • Drug addiction changes how a person thinks making
    it harder for them to quit drugs. Fortunately,
    there is a study on how drugs affect the cerebrum
    and enable users to recover from addiction. Also,
    drug addiction is viewed as a chronic disease as
    it is hard to control.

  • Drugs contain a certain chemical called dopamine
    that affects the cerebrum's reward circuit. It is
    responsible why an individual feel delight and
    pleasure among things and it causes the person to
    keep taking the repeatedly.

5
  • Uncontrollable use of drugs can damage the
    cerebrum, changing an individual's restrain on
    taking drugs. It acclimates the overuse of
    dopamine by making less of it and reducing the
    capacity of the cells to react less.

6
  • Over use of drugs causes an individual's brain
    function to decrease, eventually affecting
    stress, decision making, memory and behavior. On
    the other hand, It's common for a patient to
    relapse because the treatment needs to be
    continuous and well adjusted for the patient.
    However, it does not mean that the treatment is
    not working.
