Drug Addiction
Drug Addiction is a kind of disease that begins slowly. The initial decision to take drugs is typically voluntary. The main reasons for their intake are to feel good, to perform well, to kill curiosity and to feel better. Drugs harm the brain's rewarding system by producing excessive dopamine, the chemical responsible for pleasurable feelings. However, with continued use, a person's ability to exert self-control can become seriously impaired and this impairment in self-control results in addiction. The treatment for drug abuse usually includes group therapy, different types of counseling, and drug education.
