What is going on in my brain? What is the chemical mechanism? Why cant I just tell my brain to stop craving the substance? Why is the addiction removing all of my inhibitions?
This is hell.
In: Biology
Because the person that likes the thing and the person trying to get them to stop are the same. It’s a conflict of interest. One of them is constantly sabotaging the other to get what they feel like they need, so it’s a cycle that’s very hard to break but very easy to get back into.
You basically have to give the addicted side other things to get joy from so that you don’t relapse, and that can be difficult.
