Addiction is now understood to be a brain disease. Whether it’s alcohol, prescription pain pills, nicotine, gambling, or something else, overcoming an addiction isn’t as simple as just stopping or exercising greater control over impulses. That’s because addiction develops when the pleasure circuits in the brain get overwhelmed, in a way that can become chronic and sometimes even permanent. This is what’s at play when you hear about reward “systems” or “pathways” and the role of dopamine when it comes to addiction. But what does any of that really mean? One of the most primitive parts of the brain, the reward system, developed as a way to reinforce behaviors we need to survive-such as eating. When we eat foods, the reward pathways activate a chemical called dopamine, which, in turn, releases a jolt of satisfaction. This encourages you to eat again in the future. When a person develops an addiction to a substance, it’s because the brain has started to change. This happens because addictive substances trigger an outsized response when they reach the brain. Instead of a simple, pleasurable surge of dopamine, many drugs of abuse-such as opioids, cocaine, or nicotine-cause dopamine to flood the reward pathway, 10 times more than a natural reward. The brain remembers this surge and associates it with the addictive substance. However, with chronic use of the substance, over time the brain’s circuits adapt and become less sensitive to dopamine. Achieving that pleasurable sensation becomes increasingly important, but at the same time, you build tolerance and need more and more of that substance to generate the level of high you crave. Addiction can also cause problems with focus, memory, and learning, not to mention decision-making and judgement. Seeking drugs, therefore, is driven by habit-and not conscious, rational decisions. Unfortunately, the belief that people with addictions are simply making bad choices pervades. Furthermore, the use of stigmatizing language, such as “junkie” and “addict” and getting “clean,” often creates barriers when it comes to accessing treatment. There’s also stigma that surrounds treatment methods, creating additional challenges. Though treatment modalities differ based on an individual’s history and the particular addiction he or she has developed, medications can make all the difference. “A lot of people think that the goal of treatment for opioid use disorder, for example, is not taking any medication at all,” says David A. Fiellin, MD, a Yale Medicine primary care and addiction medicine specialist. “Research shows that medication-based treatments are the most effective treatment. Opioid use disorder is a medical condition just like depression, diabetes or hypertension, and as with those conditions, it is most effectively treated with a combination of medication and counseling.”
I started drinking alcohol since my teenage, spent my whole life fighting alcohol addiction. Also suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Not until my wife recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. This is something that really need to be use globally to help people with related health challenges.
Amen God bless people. Save your health save your mind. Life is better without heroin, cocaine, alcohol and cigarettes. And you have more money in your pocket. God bless everyone who has rejected the devils intentions to be addicted to alcohol and cigarettes etc which can cause so much damage to health.
Can you help me with the reliable source 🙏. I'm 56 and have suffered for years with addiction, anxiety and severe ptsd, I got my panic attacks under control myself years ago and they have come back with a vengeance, I'm constantly trying to take full breaths but can't get the full satisfying breath out, it's absolutely crippling me, i live in Germany. I don't know much about these mushrooms. Really need a reliable source!! Can't wait to get them.
Hey! Yes Dr.medshrooms
Yes very sure of Dr.alishrooms. I'm really happy for you that your wife decided to help you...I hear about alot of family members or so called friends shutting an addict out of their life, which since most addicts do it to mask emotions to me is the worse thing someone can do to an addict.
How do I reach out to him? Is he on insta
And now imagine that physical opiate withdrawal is added to that. Because this is mainly caused by noradrenaline. The lack of dopamine makes you feel incredibly tired and weak, but the adrenaline doesn't let you sleep. Your body is also running at full speed but you have no motivation. Add to that the pain, diarrhea, vomiting, shaking, endlessly sad depression etc etc etc....
It's a real miracle that some people stop using opiates all on their own. I did it because I had no strength left and suicide was the only solution. I can't believe it myself but it's possible
Sorry buddy, but best way to stop addiction? Never start.
I never smoked, never took ANY drugs. Unless you think medicine.
@@donoturnback Not exactly a SUBSTANCE, that changes your body in a meaningful way. Gambling is an addiction too, but I didn't include it here, because the topic is wrong. Kind of...
wait so is that why im sick? what you described is almost exactly what happens when i come down from pills nd whatnot i didnt think i did them for long enough to even cause it 20 pills a month tops, mostly 8-15 pills a month in a week or so of binging them
@@trailerparkpegasus Looks like this info you stumbled upon could end up changing or saving your life. Awesome. 💪
Go ahead, put your life and your mind at risk and do drugs... See that they don't do you.
At this time, I would kill myself if I couldn't do heroin... it's the only good, safe, comforting feeling that I know.
I mean, I am a Diagnosed Schizophrenic... it's sortof different for me, because I have a severe mental condition that affects my everyday life.
Maybe "normal people" don't constantly feel afraid that the world is about to end... but I've been like that since I was a kid.
I avoid all interpersonal relationships because, as a drug addict, I am not worthy of any type of relationship... but personally, I feel that drugs are way safer than relationships.
I don't annoy or bother anyone, anymore.
You can't blame drugs for the bad things that happen to you because of your addiction... you can only blame yourself, or better yet, recognize what part you played in all of it.
When I consider all of my experiences related to my addiction, I don't recommend that anybody try drugs.
You are better off never knowing the feeling of euphoria. I promise you.
Finally, a real video about HOW addiction works in the brain.
Understanding the social pressures that cause addiction is important, but CZcams has a distinct lack of neurological and pharmacological explanations of the phenomenon. Great work!
i am 17 years old. I was addicted to anime, reels, CZcams, nonstop music and other internet related things like shopping and games. I quit all of these at the same time because I was aiming to score high in my exams. After a few days I experienced sudden stress and anxiety and was confused about what was going on with me. I had gotten anhedonia because of sudden drop of dopamine and was very very scared about my future. It's been 1 month and I'm still having a few symptoms.
I get a lot of mood swings, I don't enjoy anything as much as I used to before, I get scared of many things, I get suicidal thoughts even though I would never do such a thing. These suicidal thoughts make me overthink and give so much distress that I disconnect from the world and just keep thinking about why all this is happening to me.
There have been a few positive changes since the past month. It's very difficult for me to handle this. I'm glad I have such wonderful parents and friends and that is why I get panicked and scared about getting suicidal thoughts. Please tell me what I can do to have a speedy recovery so I can enjoy life again. I really really hope this is temporary.
woooow scary what those anime reels can do to a man
Exercise, good food, water and sleep will allow you to come back towards equilibrium over time. You are also feeling like many adults, so consider that when you see how adults behave. Your brain isn’t done developing until you’re about 30yrs old, so expect many changes to come! Many will be positive but don’t be scared of negative thoughts, they happen to everyone. You may want to take time and reflect on what those thoughts are and what underlying emotions are making you scared or to over think. Sometimes it’s just natural and other times there are unresolved things from childhood.
Please try to get into therapy, it'll help immensely
It's very good that you have already seen some positive things returning. The fact that you're aware of the dopamine connection is going to help you a lot. You already know the big "secret" to addiction and how it's an illness, not a character flaw. THAT alone will get you far in life when you're trying to keep up your self-esteem. Also, you can recover much easier with all the knowledge of how to dopamine seek the healthy way. Everyone needs dopamine, but it's healthier to keep a steady, lower level of it, enough to keep you happy. Then, you should start being able to get rushes of dopamine when something exciting happens. At that point, you should be on your way. I wish you the best. I'm glad you didn't get too far into addiction or get into deadly substances. How are you doing now? A few of us have shown interest, so maybe you can update. 😀
Stoping thinking anything and just take deep breath and relax b
This doesn’t mention the stress circuitry’s role which is reverse to the dopamine. While dopamine down-regulates, stress receptors are upregulated which makes an addict more stress in sober situations. Leading to hyper-stress which can only be alleviated with drugs, a vicious cycle.
Yo didn't know that, pretty useful
Also Pavlov effect of addicts getting conditioned to the environment they developed addiction in hence the reason many addicts relapse after getting out of rehab
@@Kaila-qy3ns While that is true it’s important to remember that Pavlov was a very strict behaviorist, the idea that what makes up our being is a series of learned behaviors. Humans are clearly more complicated than that because our society is much more complicated than that. So while they are conditioned into addiction, it isn’t in the Pavlovian sense, or in the behaviorists sense.
i get anxiety when i think abt not having anything or having access to it its making it hard for me to tink abt my future nd transitioning into adulthood
I'm druggie cuz I've trird. Ur mental if I can't be sober!????!!?!!?!!?!?!?! Get ur fuck self together
Superbly done and brief enough to use for the "Opiod Response Network's" (ORN) trainings I do nationally.
THANK YOU ALL for the educating and compelling explanation, AND mentioning the impact of stigma on Tx aversion. This is going directly into a slide deck!
Amazing summary. It is only worth mentioning that behavior addictions such as porn and gamble also activate the same mechanisms.. is one process of addiction with different objects.
I think porn and masturbation is as strong as heroin pleasure in the brain.
Yes, non chemical addictions are extremely difficult to overcome even without the physiological response
most successfully recovered Ex-Addicts say that tagging Addiction as an chronic illness hinders people recovering and excuses failing medical treatment (sry for bad englisch, I am from germany)
gonna need a source on this one chief
@@vorgjr8519 for example in the book "the biology of desire" from Marc Lewis
Maybe that's true in Germany, but in my country, the US, it is definitely considered a chronic illness by professional organizations. It's just the people who are uninformed that this video is for.
@@surbon514why do think they categorize it as an illness??? Could it be so the healthcare system can make money ooof of "treatments" that dont work??? It's a scam. I was an addict. I beat it with will power.
It makes it easier to blame it on the drug than on oneself and just give up
This is a well delivered, concise explanation of this subject. Thank you.
Really good video, thanks!
I love your way of explaining.
Please would you discuss for me the VTA and the prefrontal cortex considering dopamine release and the effects the addictedd brain will encounter
Wonderful research
Really good research, thanks
Thank you so much, that was really informative and clear ! I couldnt understand how the reward system worked before, but now i get it !
Addiction is unnatural. What's hard about this is that you need to change both environment and your habits to bring about a change. And that is a losing battle. Education and reprogramming the subconscious mind as well as changing the environment is a hardprocess but the only thing you need to know is hope. There is hope. You can change. If this was a totally permanent situation this would be a terrifying situation.
Yeah it’s not permanent and your brain does recover. If you take the proper amino acids and vitamins you can naturally overcome addiction and withdrawals that way.
It's permanent for many people, the pain is too great.
Addiction is natural it is your brain our brains developed before we had these drugs
The society we live in is unnatural...
This is such a great, easy to understand explanation. Thank you.

Great explanation, what I’d really be interested in is a video on how active recovery engagement works creating new neurological pathways
Then I heard a new sound: a living sound, like the richest, most complex, most beautiful piece of music you've ever heard. Growing in volume as a pure white light descended, it obliterated the monotonous mechanical pounding that, seemingly for eons, had been my only company up until then. The light got closer and closer, spinning around and around and generating those filaments of pure white light that I now saw were tinged, here and there, with hints of gold. Then at the very center of the light, something else appeared. There was a wooshing sound, and in a flash I went through the opening and found myself in a completely new world. The strangest, most beautiful world I'd ever seen. Brilliant, vibrant, ecstatic, stunning . . . I was flying, passing over trees and fields, streams and waterfalls, and here and there, people. There were children, too, laughing and playing. The people sang and danced around in circles, and sometimes I'd see a dog, running and jumping among them, as full of joy as the people were. A beautiful, Incredible dream world . . .
Except it wasn't a dream.
The word real expresses something abstract, and it's frustratingly ineffective at conveying what I'm trying to describe. Imagine being a kid and going to a movie on a summer day. Maybe the movie was good, and you were entertained as you sat through it. But then the show ended, and you filed out of the theater and back into the deep, vibrant, welcoming warmth of the summer afternoon. And as the air and the sunlight hit you, you wondered why on earth you'd wasted this gorgeous day sitting in a dark theater. Multiply that feeling a thousand times, and you still won't be anywhere close to what I felt like where I was.
Beautifully written. Was this DMT experience?
@@SilvertortoisePiano Eben Alexander - proof of heaven
@@dmtdreamz7706wow sounds like it could be caused by dmt or similar due to near death experience. Have you read robert monroe too? Great stories of journeying out of the body.
I felt that
Been struggling with fentanyl addiction, it’s rough I get clean then backslide just to go through the torture of detox, again and again knowing how miserable and the things I would do to just never try a perc mane. To not understand that rewarding feeling when u are going through wd and get your fix, it’s all just such a curse.
Anybody know the background musics name?
Do you have any info on addiction to social medias?
Nice explanation.
But do we only get addicted in drugs abuse cases? I think we can also have addiction to normal things. How that can be explained
then what do we do with patients that refuse treatment and time and time again, relapse?
Are there any known cures for addiction and reverse paranoid schizophrenia if the health professionals don't know / refuse to recognize you have either condition even after having a brain scan which shows it
I went - almost - clean 16 months ago, and started eating - mostly - only whole foods, no sugar, nothing processed, and started exercising 4-5 times a week. I fall off the wagon around every 4 months, for one night at a time. I find that when I break the diet and eat some crappy food, I start craving ciggarettes and alcohol and drugs! I can't even eat some white rice without wanting to get droned!
You probably also feel that stressful situations make you want to use again? This is because your mind has learned that the solution to an internal problem (you feeling bad or stressed) has an external solution (drugs or alcohol). So next time you feel stressed and think about using, try to catch yourself thinking that and then make a list, preferably in writing, about what will happen if you give into the urge and use drugs vs what will happen if you do not and if you were to do something you know is good for you. Even if you still decide to use, this will train your brain to change the pattern of behavior to a different one. Keep doing this and you can change any habit, but it works especially well with drugs or alcohol.
While it might be true that an already established addiction should be classified and treated as an illness, the behaviours and environments that lead to addiction can be prevented through will power (among other things).
Also, an addict might take it as an excuse that addiction is a brain illness and tell themselves they oughtnt even try
Clearly you missed the point.
ANY illness or disease u should fight to overcome it IF possible. You missed the point.
Scientifically speaking and they done studies on this mammals in Unhealthy environments are lot more likely to have addiction problems/behavior.
"While it might be" Dude it is true and how do you guys come to the conclusion that people finding out they have a decease leads to them NOT wanting to cure it?
This logic makes no sense
Substance use kicks the can down the road initially when dealing with painful emotions. It works until it doesn’t. The end of that road is a drop off cliff with no way back.
Nice
Are those changes permanent or they can be reversed when stopped using drugs?
In philosophy and religion, dopamine/amygdala is connected to the vices (as connected with personal survival). Serotonin/Insula with the virtues (as connected with survival of the species). Reason-Awareness is recognizing that both of these systems need to be kept balanced and in harmony--as dopamine is connected with opioids (the reward for getting what you want, and making you want more--the cause of all addictions), or the stress (cortisol) and anxiety of not getting your desire (pains). The area being the cause of anxiety disorders, addictions, and heart disease.
On the other hand, the Insula is connected with DMT (why many Buddhists and "Enlightenment" seekers meditate and use diet to restrict their dopamine levels to "awaken" to the insula). This area also connected to manic-depression. Where many "spiritualists" end up with melancholia and severe depression (not enough serotonin), or if damage the amygdala, with too much DMT (leading to schizophrenia).
If read up on studies of DMT and LSD experiments (LSD connecting to insula system), no one has come back with any "secret" info or cures for cancer. DMT is just a hallucinogen that is probably used by the mind to give us a nice send off when we die (coming into play when the amygdala and dopamine levels drop to zero). There is no need to try and reach this state by use of drugs or "seeking after enlightenment"--this is modern science, not the ignorance of the past.
The goal is to move past these areas and know enough about your self to be aware of what your body needs to remain mentally and physically healthy. Where moderation is key to everything in life. Too much dopamine or serotonin or not enough dopamine and serotonin both leading to mental dis-ease. The Key--is the Golden Mean.
I wonder why then addicts can use willpower to stop their addiction
depends on the severity of the addiction, usually if its an extreme level they have to play self binding tactics to overcome it
How long does a person have to remain abstinent for dopamine to return to normal levels so that they can function normally?
I am also interested to Kno this
Also want to know. I quit binge drinking 10 months ago and still without alcohol and my Life is litteraly much better and i really feel the big changes for the better and also i only got like one time per month a thought of ”wanting” to sip a little but i dont and feel great about it. And how do i know then that im not addective anymore? I drank for 1 year 4 months almost daily 3-4 beers 5,5% but not always every week like that… sometimes i had even 2-3 days without.. and then i got 1 months without, and 2 times 2 weeks i didnt drink also.. so what is addiction really.. sounds like in my case it was only big misuse and i know i drank cause i had alot of anxiety in all forms.. but i never felt that i was happy about drinking.. cause i knew all the time it was wrong..
@bella8845. The thing to understand is how the brain reacts when you drink so, if you have a drink and it makes you want more to drink that’s considered addiction. If you say you’re going to have just two drinks tonight and you end up having a lot more than you intended that’s considered addiction. It’s not all about how often you drink, it’s about what happens in the brain when you drink. Addiction is a lifelong disease. Once your brain is highjacked by the substance you will no longer be able to use that substance without the same outcome.
@@chrisyates3554 Well thanks✌🏽
@@chrisyates3554 in that case is almost everyone addicted 😂😂😂 some bullshit right there sorry😄 no one can have only 1 or 2 glass without wanting to take one more glass. And some people drink real heavyly insane much in one and the same day. So yeaaa i dont know if i really buy your answer. The same ways goes for them who are saying no i dont have problem with ethanol cause they use food same time, BUT they HAS TO HAVE ALWAYS DRINK TO THE FOOD.. thats some bullshit there to for me🤣 Well good Night who ever you are 😄👌
Hate to say it but I think most of us are addicted to our phones

Yeah I find it very weird that people keep separating will power from addiction when you can just literally stop abusing a substance with willpower lol

So basically, as it is said in the video, every addictive substance makes your body produce dopamine which makes you fill satisfied hence you get addicted to it. But how come some people have told me they didn't enjoy the first time they tried an addictive substance? For example, I cannot stand being around people who smoke, I just hate the smell of it. My teacher told me he didn't like the first time he smoked so he never smoked again. Shouldn't all people enjoy using an addictive substance since it produces dopamine?
From what I GUESS, not everyone enjoys same things. Some people like chicken, others hate it. Some people like pork. Other hate it. Some people like alcohol. Others hate it. I THINK it's the same here. You may like drugs, or you can hate it.
Best way to get out of addiction? Never START.
the nicotine in cigarette increases your dopamine which will make you high, or distract you from the painful reality. i think your teacher didnt learn to smoke correctly, we want to take to smoke till lungs get 90% full. just kidding dont try smoking it ruined my life,s 1 year i quit smoking and my llips got pink again.
Its funny for me , i dont actually knows am i addicted or not . As i tries any detox , very soon i convince myself that i am not addicted . By the way i am talking about yt and instagram , not something seriously addictive .
It’s so obvious with the effects of porn and heavily edited Instagram and ethots, that now men are calling Margot Robbie mid and a solid 4/10. Reminds me how when i was 19 my then partner would compare me to all these unrealistic beauty standards then it wasn’t until he started going outside more that he appreciated my beauty more and also discovered all the girls he was comparing me to were catfishes and heavily edited
You stuck with someone who compared you to other women?!
As a man I can tell you many of us are desperate for any kind of affection
My brain's foolin me 😨
Most of the people are addicted to the phones and social how can i stop these
They hit the Pentagon!!!!
😂
You aren't funny.
Nah it's not a disease, it's just your brain adapting according to the status quo.
So whats the solution ???
There isn't one
It sucks, but the solution is abstinence.
@@chrisyates3554 bruh......
Abstinence, changing your environment, and lots of nutrients like magnesium.
Or you can try to replace one addiction for another that's less damaging on your life.
Like my ex girlfriend had a gambling addiction. I simply bought her a gaming system PS4, and her gambling habit reduced significantly
Take away everything that gives you extensive pleasure for months.
I'm a dopamine addict.
Alcohol was a drug, for me. I only drank when I could no longer take drugs but I drank an ocean of licquor
Hmm...
What's going on in the brain during addiction?
According to the magazine of the Harvard Mental Health Center that I mentioned earlier, our brain treats all satisfactions in the same way. Whether it comes from drugs, from money addiction, from excessive thirst, from unhealthy food consumption or from self-indulgence, etc.; It's just that they're all the same in the parts of the brain they're dealing with and the neurotransmitter (primarily dopamine) chemicals they produce.
In simple terms; When information about any addictive substance reaches our brain, it causes the release of the neurotransmitter dopamine. Neurotransmitters are chemicals that act as office messengers when a nerve cell wants to transmit an electrical signal to another cell.
So when we say that this dopamine is responsible for the functioning of the neurotransmitter, we mean it. In our brain, there are nerve cells that generate electricity: they are called neurons. As soon as the boy Hasan smokes, these neurons in our brain begin to produce chemicals called dopamine. (Just like we spray on our clothes.) They like these dopamine chemicals with an electrical signal.
The other neuron has a receptor cell that hits the body (like a ball bounces off a net). It is at this time that the feeling of arousal comes, just like touching the tail of a light switch with our finger and making it turn on. Which brings us back to that - alcohol. These dopaminergic chemicals regulate the temporal lobes of our brains. When repeated | Again, it becomes addictive.How does the brain experience addiction?
Until recently, scientists believed that the experience of temporary gratification alone made an addict, "an addiction to the point where they say, 'Repeat to me.'" However, recent studies have shown that the situation is a much more complex science. That is, the chemical dopamine itself is not the only one that brings that temporary satisfaction. In addition, the child's memories about the drug, the use of the drug (for example, the time, place and situation when he smokes secretly) and the situations in which he used the drug, the times he still uses it, and even his friends (a role in learning and memory of drug use) are controlled by the same dopamine chemical.
Dr. Jackie Daniels, senior specialist at the Indiana Rehabilitation Center, explains more about this. The Harvard Journal of Psychiatry analyzes that dopamine is the main chemical in the child's brain responsible for providing memories and longing, from liking the drug to falling into addiction. He also explains that dopamine does this by interacting with another neurotransmitter, specifically glutamate. And this glutamate is the most abundant type of protein in our bodies that we all need for basic nutritional satisfaction.
Glutamate, for example, works to make us eat meat, "appetite closed, open" etc. In our brain, however, it serves us in an overlapping role as a neurotransmitter. But just like a wild child addicts the good neighbor, every time the hormone dopamine, a drug chemical or signal comes to the brain saying "let's party and dance! let's have fun", it destroys this good and obedient chemical of glutamate in all parts of our body.
The combination of these two chemicals causes the child's brain and body to feel a particular temporary satisfaction during the free time (for example, drinking and smoking), which makes him want that drug again and again. He is becoming addicted to this time.666 code to control brain chemicals
Basically, when we study the chemicals of dopamine, neurons, glutamate, etc., which are used by users of the 666 code to control people with addiction, they have a carbon atom in them. For example, if we look at the hormone dopamine, it has 8 carbon atoms of 666 atoms and its chemical formula is CaHNO2. Glutamate's chemical form is CH9NO4, and it has 5 carbon atoms lined up for the chemical compound.
In a health column published by The Guardian on 07/2019, he shows us how getting a good night's sleep can help the brain recover and repair damaged neurons. What we see here is that the repair is mainly done on the DNA of the neuron. If it has DNA, it must have a carbon code. We have seen again and again that this is the code of 666 (ie carbon 12 with 6 electrons, 6 neutrons and 6 protons).
Therefore, the secret hand that rules the world using the 666 code is using this carbon 666 chemical here for addiction.
The main chemical that allows us to control our brains is the main chemical, the main actor in all of them, drugs, alcohol, money worship, fleeting desires and activities. These include, for example, hemp and beer chemicals that use carbon primarily. As soon as they enter our body, the dopamine chemical they activate in our brain has a carbon structure.
This primary carbon 666 chemical coordination function enslaves man. A research report included in the Conservapedia database entitled "Atheism and Dris Addiction" explains that most Westerners who fall under the slavery of drug addiction end up denying the Creator, God, and accepting the practices of 666 satanic spirits.Anti-drug campaign /War on drugs/ to spread drugs
My dear family, I have already shown you how to prevent the use of drugs, cigars, alcohol and others. We have also seen the introduction of Prohibition or the Noble Experiment method in America. Similarly, the anti-drug campaign in the United States began in 1971 under President Richard Nixon. The Business Insider magazine, in its February 19/208 report, detailed the 20 American presidents who were supporters of the secret 666 Illuminati. Among them are George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, Harry Truman, and now Richard Nixon, who is indebted to this expansion of drugs and alcohol.
Business Insider reports that Richard Nixon founded a secret Illuminati group called the Red Brotherhood in 1993. If we look at it from this point of view, we can see that the project started by Nixon under the name of anti-drug campaign was deliberately made for the purpose of promotion to increase the number of drug users. As a proof of this, we can see on page 24 of the commission's publication WAR ON DRUG that an institution called the World Drug Policy Commission has greatly distorted the historical course of the anti-drug campaign.
If he says the words we notice in this publication, "the global war on drugs has failed with devastating consequences for individuals and societies around the world". When it is translated, he explains that "... the world anti-drug campaign has led to many losses and failures for the individuals and societies of the world, and the project itself has ended in failure..." Although this project was discontinued, the 666 code user groups achieved the desired results. The idea of the article is that they have increased the number of addicts to a surprising extent. Let me show you some good evidence for this.
For example: in 998, there were 12.9 million cocaine users in the world; But in 2008, it increased to 7 million, which is 27%, according to the United Nations report.

Ok but forget drugs, you can have an addiction problem to multiple things.
It's sad that I have to watch this as a corn addicted 14 year old.
dont afraid to getting profesional help about this. im 24 my addiction started in your age and I know ı would do everything better if I could end it. such a time and motivation loss.
It often comes down to whether someone's neurochemistry runs either on dopamine or acetylcholine. My brain is much more dependant on acetylcholine.
How did you figure that out? 😊

"The PROBLEM is that addictive substances hijack our natural reward system..." Wrong again. "The problem is that governments and societies hijack our natural reward system." There, now we are getting somewhere.
I look at it this way, we have a complex system within our body that has evolved to regulate behavior towards a specific goal and it seems that this is regulated by specific feelings. The feeling that we call happiness is closely related to the release of dopamine and when we feel this feeling, the behavior that led to it is seen by the brain as good for our survival because that is the main goal of our entire existance, on a physiological level. The brain, on this level, does not make a difference between what we deem as socialy acceptable behavior and what we deem as bad, it has evolved to push us towards wanting to repeat things that make us feel good. The stronger this feeling is the more likely we will want to repeat the activity that led to it. Now, depending on when you introduce drugs into your life, you will be less or more likely to resist it, as the part of your brain that is responsible for decision making or even showing restraint (prefrontal cortex) is not fully developed until you are around 25. To put it simply, that literally means that the brain has evolved to regulate our actions to repeat behaviors that make us feel good and as drugs make us feel really good, we are more likely to take them becuse we have literally evolved conditions to make it so. So drugs work directly on the reward system, I do not see a way in which this is not true?
So, uh.....My cat won't eat food that it smells and decides the food is dangerous. So, following that logic.... If a human smokes crack, and the brain finds it to be safe to ingest....Well, why would that happen? Humans are more highly evolved than animals, right? So....there must be so
me kind of benefit. That's my logic, and I am happy to hear counter arguments. Crack cocaine, and cocaine, I never found to be rewarding enough to keep doing. I prefer crystal meth by FAR, as well as nicotine. Don't really enjoy alcohol or marijuana that much, but I LOVE the smell and taste of certain types of coffee. All that being said, it seems to me that most of the research I have done has returned bullshit results when it comes to addiction. Be well.
It's a coping mechanism to deal with negative outlook on life or reaction to circumstances. Not a labeled disease. Plenty of studies on Vietnam vets coming home who abused drugs in war to go through it. When they returned to loving families addictions were gone. Same for meth users in ww2.
Although not all had warm homes waiting for them. Also cocaine studies on rats...
Addictions can fall off naturaly if you just start meditate or chill and care for how you feelin the moment. If you in decision to take the drug consider how crash or after effect would feel. All you need to fill the void or gap with self care and self love and not drugs.
Just because it changes the structure of the brain does not mean it is something we cannot control. Fallacious argument. In addition, we see the effects of addiction, not as a 'brain disease' itself but rather an external source that affects the brain. Such a skewed way to talk about this.
Actually, the brain creates MORE receptor sites. This isn't accurate
why people take drugs because they dont have any option at that time
😅it doesn't take too much to get pleasure in it
Completely against this notion that it's a disease. I'm glad that is finally starting to go out of fashion. You CAN rewire addiction, you can't rewire cancer.
You can reverse diabetes but doesn't make it not a disease
If you stop drinking, you have solved the problem. There is no guaranteed way to reverse diabetes. I'm not saying stopping drinking is easy. In fact, it may be nearly impossible for some. But to continue with this line that it's a brain disease is going to make a lot of people not even TRY to control their alcohol intake.
Is anyone saying smoking is a brain disease? That is as much, if not more, addictive than drinking. Overeating? Not a "disease." For some reason, alcohol has this special "brain disease" label? It's an addiction. Yes, the addiction has hijacked your brain's wiring. This does not make it a disease because, difficult as it is for some, you CAN control it. You can't control brain diseases such as blastomas or Alzheimer's. The "disease" label I think was needed at a time when it was thought that alcoholics were lazy, immoral, "bad," etc. We now know that is not the case. But that doesn't make alcoholism a "brain disease."
I don't choose addiction.
I notice no one has responded. Too much logic. 🙄
You allow yourself to become addicted to something, thats fact. The bottle of drugs didint force themselves down your throat and if they did, then call ghost busters
What value does your comments provide? Absolutely nothing

Have you ever been addicted? I am guessing not?
@@brnm973 yes, and it was my choice
I starting to think weed effecting my mind in a sinister manner
I can't stop everything is so wrong everywhere I go but weed and alcohol helps anxiety and hopelessness but also fuels it...
You severely damage your credibility with the evolution statement. That’s when I noticed this was a ivy league product and all credibility was lost.
This video is extremely basic. It does not discuss any recent research or why many people do not get addicted etc. I would have expected better from Yale Medicine!
That’s because this video is only about how an addicted brain works. Stop getting upset just to be upset.
@@MrWhiterabbit84 how does your brain work? 😊
Read the damn title
@@alvarrez1234 can you spell it for me please? You are such a charm! ☺
@@bingeltube you’re not worth the trouble. Have a lovely holiday season.
Addiction is not a disease.. addiction is a wrong way of life and wrong habits.. u need to find these wrong habits and stop them fixing your addiction..
negative IQ comment
Repetitive and sad music, plus very bad voice recording quality
Such a bad and repetitive piece of music. Certainly not addictive at all 🤮
