We're just a robot, a zombie, and we're doing like I'm doing. That's why we need professionals to help us and to guide us so our brain can heal from the damage that has been done.
Ever wondered why addiction feels like such a powerful force? In this episode of 'Everyday Addict', host Brian Ario breaks down the science behind addiction, focusing on how it impacts different parts of the brain. Forget the jargon-heavy lectures; Brian keeps it simple and relatable. He dives into how addiction messes with reasoning, impulse control, and decision-making, all while explaining the role of dopamine—the brain's 'feel-good' chemical.
Brian also emphasizes that recovery is possible and highlights various treatments available to manage cravings, sleep issues, and depression. If you're struggling or know someone who is, this episode is a must-listen for understanding the biological side of addiction and finding hope in recovery.
