Well, now I know why I'm addicted to this channel.
-
This has really opened my eyes! I never thought of addiction from this viewpoint before.

this video helps open my eyes ...thx my friends

Realest shit Ive ever seen .. like this is sooooo true

This is just a side of battling/preventing addiction (more preventig I'd say). As usual, everybody wants to put his absolute truth on the topic without even knowing addicts and their stories.This is one good approach. It's not everything you need to defeat addiction.Addiction is in your brain very well wired, if you gave into it long enough. You still need tools to deal with cravings and stay clean.If you don't stay clean first,long enough, you are not going to reason well and be yourself in the first place.

What if you're addicted to addiction clinics?
-
If this works screw any ted talk on porn addiction EVER
-
Well, this video is an opinion. I don't think it is that simple. Many addicts have love around them, until they became addicts.
-
great video. i agree with most of it. but addiction is also highly genetic, circumstances can sometimes have alot less to do with it than youd think... happy highly responsible parents raise an intelligent well spoken son, RAGING addict as an adult. Intoxiholic since puberty in fact. why this happens is a BIG question, with no small simplified answer. addicts and functioning addicts are two entirely different forms of addiction, hold a job just to get high? run for people to get your fix? its all the same to a dope head. suboxone is evil btw. dont ever touch that shit even if its prescribed. "heaven" becomes a secondary hell :).

Wonderfull, thanks Kurzgesagt, I would love to support this channel on Patreon.com

I'm addicted to internet because I use it as a substitute for social connection without going outside. I was very addicted to video games when I was a kid because I was isolated at home (still am) and it gave me a sense of joy I desperately needed.
Thanks for this video, it kind of cleared some things for me. -
Why else would people do drugs. They're bored af
