Neural Impacts of Substance Abuse

Neural impacts of substance Abuse explain the harmful impact of drugs and alcohol on the brain. When someone continually use addictive drugs, it changes the manner in which his or her brain operates. These changes could affect regions responsible for deciding, emotions, memories, and controlling oneself. For example, drugs can damage the brain’s reward system, making one find it hard to experience pleasures from normal activities. Eventually, the brain also becomes reliant on the drug in order to function, and this leads to addiction and cravings. Substance abuse can also decrease the size of areas of the brain, slow down mental processes, and increase the risk of mental illness such as depression or anxiety. Adolescents’ brains are also most susceptible, whose brains are still developing. These impacts will not always stop completely when drug use has stopped, but with treatment and time, the brain is able to heal to some extent. Knowing how the brain responds to drugs helps doctors develop better recovery and treatment plans.
