Hello my Dear Friend, so glad you are posting about addiction, as I do believe it to be the cause or basis for so many underlying problems. Coping with life is learned or taught to us by parents, teachers, mentors, etc. Today so many young people are isolated, abused, left to bring up other siblings that Indeed addiction may be a choice they make to cope with their set of circumstances.In this case the underlying problem must be dealt with and coping skills learned before real change can take place.
In physical addiction the blood brain barrier has been broken making the addict more susceptible to the affects of the drug or alcohol ingested. I can’t see this happening with internet, porn, shopping, etc. but yes crack, cocaine , alcohol, heroin, and mind altering chemicals. This is way more difficult as the drug or alcohol have so much power over the physical body, constantly calling the addict back for another high.
This topic is so big in my opinion that most other frailties of the mind can revolve around it and become spontaneous off shoots of the addiction. The study of the brain and the organic malfunctions are in my opinion very slight by comparison to what can happen with an addict.
In conclusion, I am so sad that your new hours for posting will only be every other Friday. I missed you so much when you were moving, and will miss you more knowing you have been too busy to share with us. Much Love to you my friend. 🐓🐓
Thank you so much for this beautiful comment my dear, dear friend @mother2chicks. I was looking forward to hearing your thoughts about this post as I know you have great knowledge on this subject. I couldn’t agree more with what you said about the upbringing of children nowadays as one of the causes that drives them to subtance use or addictive behaviours. We live in an overwhelming world!
From a neuropsychological perspective this topic is as interesting as it is complex, in my opinion.
I am sorry to hear you feel sad about me posting less! My work load will diminish in a couple of months, and I will be back on posting weekly 😊 Your always kind and loving words are truly motivating my dear. Thank you so much for always delivering so much love.
Lots of love to you and all the best ❤️🌷
Take care :)
I like your post, so big and, to tell you the truth, a lot of useful information that opens your eyes to what's happening in the world, at the moment, addiction grows more and more, and how to fight it or who does not know the main thing is that it is beneficial to people's hands who for this are not small money, and the families of so-called drug addicts suffer as always and all their lives are tormented by their relative or son. Thank you for the post, dear friend, I support your post
