The Addicted Brain

Addiction is a very complex disease with many factors that can contribute to it. It disrupts and dismembers the most powerful part of the body; the brain. This presentation will bring a pragmatic approach to addiction explaining the influences and development of the addicted brain. Examining how withdrawal symptoms, along with behavioral and emotional tendencies, can show potential brain recovery. The focus will turn to how the brain can be healed and enhanced through medical and clinical treatment.
