When we say that addiction changes the brain, what does that mean? In short, addiction can cause the brain to flood with pleasure hormones so that you feel substantial reward (more than normal) for engaging in the addiction while your natural self-control mechanisms are bypassed.
Addiction can look different from person to person. However, people struggling with addiction tend to exhibit some of the following symptoms.
Physical signs of addiction:
Behavioral signs of addiction:
Emotional signs of addiction:
Millions of people in the United States alone suffer from addiction. While addiction can afflict anyone at any time, certain people are more vulnerable to addiction’s grip than others. Family and genetic history of addiction play a big role in its development, for example, as do environmental circumstances.
When looking back to when addictions first develop, people often recall an element of peer pressure. The behavior in question may begin as a way to relax with friends, fit in with a social group, or gain acceptance from colleagues. Emotional trauma or abuse can also play a role, causing people to explore certain behaviors in order to numb the pain and find relief.
If you are struggling with addiction, you don’t have to go it alone. The first step in recovering is reaching out for support. When you are ready to begin therapy, Thriveworks in Seattle, WA is ready to help.
