Do you truly want to do drugs to feel good?
The activation of nucleus accumbens in the human body comes from simply imagining
something good or doing something good that causes gratification. It could be best called the "brain pleasure center" . This area is a link to the cause of addiction and depression. To activate the nucleus accumbens there needs to be dopamine to be present to activate the neurotransmitter.
Wanting to have pleasure already increases the expectancy reward. The liking - wanting is important because people who are addicted to illicit drugs show a drive to obtain the drug even though it does not provide a pleasure anymore because of the addiction.
The causes of to high levels of dopamine can really hurt the human body, the the brain and body
remain in a heightened state of alertness. This state of alertness leads to feelings of irritability,
nervousness and paranoia. Chronic exposure to high levels of dopamine can lead to outbursts
of violent behavior and a psychosis similar to schizophrenia, according to the Center for
Substance Abuse Research.
After high levels excitement then the levels of dopamine wear off and depression usually kicks
in and could truly hurt any individual.
After the information provided do you really want to do drugs or get addicted to drugs? Think of
the damage it could you or your family.
Dopamine is already present why hurt yourself with the consumption of drugs.
It's because people who abuses drugs don't necessarily think of the after math, but then again, may be they do. Once the dopamine wears off, then so does the feelings of pleasure, excitement, and energy. And what do you do to raise them back up? Use the drug all over again. You see, addicts don't want to go back to that feeling, the feeling of pain, depression, and anxiety. What they don't know is that if they continue abusing drugs, then they'll focus more on the sensations rather than what's really going in their body. They can go into shock, seizures, or even develop a brain aneurysm and won't even know it until the very last minute. But once again, they never think about what could happen, they're more focused on what they're feeling at that moment.
