Introduction

Addiction is a condition that arises when a being consumes substances or engages in activities that can be pleasurable at first, but the prolonged ingestion or act of which becomes a necessity. It emerges by the search of the ‘euphoric’ feeling a substance or activity brings with it. This feeling is the cause of the increase of the level of the striatal dopamine neurotransmitter. Users may not be aware that their compulsive behaviour is out of control and also once a being is addicted an entirely separate set of events or stressors may sustain and maybe amplify the addiction. Addiction can eventually lead to abuse. When relating addiction to pain, it is actually the endorphins released in the system which aid the dopamine release and gets a being addicted, forming a dependency on their release.
