how are drugs addictable?

Answer 1

do y ou mean how are drugs addictive? If so then: ell take heroin for an example, you will take it and yuo will really like th efeeling it gives you. So the nest time you are feeling a bit down you will take it, eventually you r life will seem unlivable without the heroin, because when you are not on it you will feel. That is when you are addicted

Answer 2

there is this chemical called dopamine in your brain that makes you feel good... in normal life it is released in very small amounts when you do anything thats good, such as brush your teeth, meet a hot girl, ... everything that you feel good about even if you dont notice you do.. it happens thousands of times a day... your brain does this as a kind of reward to get you to keep doing things that are good for you... addictive drugs release large amounts of this dopamine artificially.. so they basically "short circuit" your brains own reward system... the amount from drugs is wayyy more than you would get from brushing your teeth, or that good feeling you get when you do good on a test... and this is why people that are addicts are less likely to shower or study etc, because the reward they get from it, the amount of dopamine, is nothing compared to the drugs they do...

the only thing all addictive drugs have in common is to release dopamine(with the exeption of Ketamine)

so thats it... taking drugs is artificially fooling the brain into thinking you just won the lottery, kissed a supermodel, and got a straight A report card all at once..... so its easy to see why a drug user would want to do it again...

so the short answer: drugs very powerfully activate the brains own natural reward system.... aka release dopamine.

Answer 3

Pschologically and physically depending on the drug and the person. Some drugs show no addictiveness but the person has addictive behaviors. Some drugs actually create a physical dependancy.

Answer 4

first you are just curious. you experiment. hardly ever people start off from heroin or anything like it. you start from weed - it seems harmless, no worse than a cigarette or a beer. and yet it goes on. and in a year you are on the hard staff. and then you realize this is it, you've turned into an addict and never before you would believe YOU could become one but you have. remember, it only FEELS safe. never is.

Answer 5

Either the body or the mind (or both) become dependent on their effect. Most often, the drugs numb the mind and the body gets "used" to them and cries out for more when they are gone.

Answer 6

Answer 7
