How are these doctors so stupid?

There are people who might have a medical condition or might be terminaly ill and the prospect of quitting drugs does not appeal to them because they will be in worse shape if you actualy get them off the drug. At a certan point, you have gone all in on drugs and there is really no going back. In that case you should not be trying to get them off drugs you should be trying to minimize the harm there doing to themselves and others. I dont think im all in on drugs yet, but i need to try something different than i have done before. When someone wants to use drugs for the first time, most drug dealers would probably not give someone there first hit if they knew it was going to be there first time because they know the impact it can have on the person. I would not advize getting on drugs if you dont absolutly have to. Like if you needed to take morphine and you were dyeing, that might be a suitable time to use them but i think you might want to stop prascribing oxy for minor workplace induries and stuff that you can play through the pain. Playing through the pain might be the best option, and you should make it verry clear to people how bad the situation can get when you are taking opioids and anfetamine. Well im almost ready to quit again. I should take my pills.

I tried the briproprion neltrexone combo to get off meth and it did help an awful lot. I quit for 3 months. That was the most effective thing they gave me. I am going to try again now.

I need a job, im not saying i should be a doctor, but i should be able to fit into the helth care profeshon in some small way without being a doctor. Maybe i could cater to people who are difficult cases and there doctors do not want to see them. Like my mental health worker. He is spicificaly traind for hard cases. I have lived a different life than most people. I can probably help people who are not receptive to talking to a health care pro because they are in survival mode. They might be in psychosis or in denial of the truth and you have to broch the subject in a subtle and paitent way.

Great video

Very interesting and educational video on addiction. Might be the best I've ever watched.

Doctor? More like butcher😂

I have never heard someone describe my addiction more accurately. Please keep fighting for us. We desperately need you.

Complete and utter rubbish. Terrible advice.

What’s this magical drug that stops cannabis cravings?

Then you get stuck on their medication. Try psilocybin mushrooms.

You're a human....so ya. You are an Apple product that only runs one way. Get used to AI on the same level than humanity has lived with for thousands of years. You can circumvent it...but it takes effort....just like every other behavioral change for a human. Just understand the software....or use Windows. We're all victims. Or make personal change paramount.

Thank you

Excellent teaching. Wow! I have learnt so much. I now understand addiction better. Thank you.

What is the medication used for marijuana?

We would like to use this for MOUD awareness training for our employees. I cannot find any licensing information and want to ensure we have permission to use this.

God the numbers of this now…. So crazy to see from years ago to now. Sad times

I find thus really interesting. But I've other dopamine drugs means your still giving drugs prescription drugs witch mist rake anyway the problem is getting off all drugs unless medical needed for pain etc conditions and you need to be recovered to be able to relapse it take 72 hours of no drugs or alcohol to be free of them then we have a choice to take or not to take them. And yes the dopamine Is pushing us to do wot we always did but the only solution us a 12 step program 110% the mind is tye problem not the drugs ❤

I am a Substance Abuse Counselor. I show this video to my patients and families so they will gain a better understanding of addiction. Top Notch!!

Addition is not a disease, it is the consequence of a choice. You must first choose to introduce a foreign substance into your system that, in most cases, short circuits the mesolimbic dopamine pathways ... and creates an extreme imbalance that drives addiction. You don't just get this imbalance like you get a cold or get cancer, you must first produce that imbalance by choosing to create that imbalance.

Who here would do open heart surgery bypass, with subs and Tylenol 😮 are they fuckin crazy 😧, i need surgery or will die suddenly, but no fuckin way am I going to suffer and be on a ventilator in massive pain 🤬

Thank you

Most Addicted people are not born addicted theyre driven by peer pressure or life circumstances of sexual abuse physical abuse or trauma, mental abuse that is not a disease so dont sugar coat by calling it a disease. You do what ever you want if dont heal them from the abuse or trauma that happen. They'll keep going back to addiction to heal the emotional pain they suffered. Yes they have to be held accountable for theyre crimes while under this adiction. You can only help them of they want help so its not discrimination either thats BS as you defined discrimination. Some of this video is good but some it is BS also. Fix the root cause first the rest will be easier. Better video is here czcams.com/video/ZFGzOIICWFE/video.htmlsi=SbI-olwyQ_dPdpC9

Wow good for you for speaking out about this I don't know how many times when I was on Suboxone You are already on pain medication you don't need any or the pharmacy would decide for me

very informative! thank you! I've been reading some other research documents and have yet to locate anything that gives specific dopamine levels after the use of nicotine, marijuana, alcohol, etc. (ie you stated meth increases levels to 1,100.) if anyone could share a link to this type of information, I'd appreciate it!

I feel helpless when I look at the labels of some of these supplements such as NAC. Most brands available look like shit , no way to know if thats really NAC or not. Check the companies such as Nutricost , Swanson , etc. Thats all chinese manufactured stuff. Seems pretty shady to me and way too expensive to gamble my health and hopes on that

great info , now can someone tell me where to buy NAC that has not been manufactured in China?

For how old this video is, this is one of the best breakdowns I’ve seen, and I work in the field and am always looking for videos for my patients. If only it was part of a mandatory training for ALL medical professionals, at least.

My goodness, what a FANTASTIC lecture! They need to be showing this at The Betty Ford clinic or Al-ANON groups to help family members understand AND visualize what exactly is happening and why the reckless behavior. Quick question: I’m a recovered, YES RECOVERED, NOT RECOVERING, alcoholic. My family held a peyote meeting for my detox (I was completely alcohol dependent, seizures and all), as I’m from the Navajo Nation. Could you maybe tell me why or HOW the chemical properties of peyote (mescaline) set me COMPLETELY FREE of any type of withdrawals or cravings ever again. If you’re not me to label it with a word, the only one that’s available is “miracle”. We held the meeting on a Saturday, the medicine (that’s what we call peyote) took 2 days to work through my body, and I came out alcohol free with zero cravings. And I never looked back. I am currently 7 years sober. I’m just wondering what chemical properties are in mescaline that somehow bind to specific receptors to help the reward system pathway?? Thank you for reading and the amazing lecture!🙏🏽🙏🏽

Well explained. Thank you.

Thank you so so much for this. Doctor here. I want to rehab and noone could answer the majority of this arena of questioning. This is so beautifully knowledge and also delivered with compassion. ❤️

What’s a good medication for alcoholism?

Wow, what an outstanding and educational video on the science of addiction and how it all ties together to dopamine levels. It would be great if this science were shared with all those in healthcare and especially the decision makers in the criminal justice system. Thank you!

Food addiction?

Amino Acids are something to look into also. Excellent video❤

Well i dont think its fitting here but opiods are also amazing recreational drugs...

PERFECT Thank you

Now imagine the state tells you that u cant drink that water you go to prison .Its a controlled substance. AND YOU ARE DESPERATE.you will still do it. Historically drug and alcohol control was only implemented by States who wish to implement control of their subjects/siticens.

Great explanation! 👏 thank you, I learned a lot.

not the number one cause of injury related deaths, that a semantically intricate statement that is grossly inaccurate. It ignores the fact that heart disease is an injury inflicted by sugar consumption. It perpetuates a corporate-written narrative that leads to the ACTUAL number one cause of injury related death.

“Wah figure it out “ 😂. Thats so professional of you .

“Wah figure it out “ 😂. Thats so professional of you .

Hello thank you for a wonderful educational video ! I wonder if you have some more numbers in terms of dopamine like you had with Methamphetamine, Alcohol and Marijuana I would be curious to know the following substances: Tobacco Amphetamine MDMA Cocaine Caffeine Thank you very much !

This is a very powerful video, it helps me understand myself better. What about cocaine addiction? Is there a treatment for that?

In Revelation it says that the green leaves are for the healing of the nations!! Marijuana green leaf cocaine green leaf heroin prettiest plant in the middle east green leaf you get caught using any of these Free plants that God made that grow from the ground with no side effects you buy from a drug dealer you go to jail but you can go to a DRUG STORE and get the chemical derivative of that plant made from man with 15 side effects and this is perfectly legal want to know why 🤨🧐🤔🤔🤔🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️ because this is satans world and when you do drugs you get HIGH and what is God called THE MOST HIGH 💯💯💯 look into EVERYTHING we've been lied to about everything especially people with ties around their necks it's tied just like a noose that means they are trying to kill you and most of them don't even know what they are doing sad really sad

How long does a person have to remain abstinent for dopamine to return to normal levels so that they can function normally?

I became dependent on oxy drugs following hip and knee surgery. My tolerance went up so high and my GP just kept prescribinh oxys. I could no longer tell if my pain was a result of post-op pain or because I had stopped taking oxys. I finally had to fire the GP and returned to her about 5000 mg of oxycontin pills. I got on bupre which has worked great but it is neither best function best pain control . It improves mental health, according to recent studies, which allows us to tolerate chronic or post op pain better. I would tremble to think about taking only bupre post op. I went almost three months in pain prior to hip replacement with only bupre for pain. Pain 24/7 for 81 days. I finally understood why some chronic pain patients want to consutl Dr Jack Kervorkian. I thought about suicide my self though did not really consider. OTC meds are a waste of money for joint pain especially when the joint is decrepit like my hip was. Crazy to consider bupre as a primary pain med after surgery, They had to fentanyl me just prior to surgery because Dilaidid had no effect whatsoever. This speaker obviously has never been in pain. I have a Masters degree so I am not some uneducated former addict. As I stated///my addiction resulted from surgeries which I needed but damn my whole life has changed.

Thank you for this information. It is very helpful.

So where does a parent with no money get methadone?
