Summary:
Here youll examine the ways addiction alters the brain by numbing the pleasure center, sensitizing the dopamine system, and inhibiting the prefrontal cortex. Combined, these altered brain functions lead to strong cravings and a reduced ability to control ones actions. This foray into neuroscience will forever change the way you think about addiction.
