Addictions

KNOWLEDGE IS POWER

Addiction = continued use despite adverse consequences

We might think of addiction as being linked to drinking, vaping/smoking, drugs and gambling. However, almost all of us are addicted to something that has adverse effects on our life, health, learning and bank accounts, and yet we continue to do, use or consume those things, from social media and gaming to shopping and sugar.

Once you understand the science behind addiction, you'll be better equipped to make different choices - choosing things that still give you a reward hit in the brain, but that aren't harmful or unhelpful in your life.
