Put The Shovel Down
Don’t wait until addiction causes you (or a loved one) to “hit bottom”. Addiction is highly predictable and can be outsmarted, which means you're NOT POWERLESS! Subscribers of this channel are empowered to take back their lives and loved ones back from addiction. Hello 👋🏻, my name is Amber. I've been dealing with addiction my whole life! I grew up in an addicted family and later became a Master Addiction Counselor. So, I understand addiction from both perspectives. The conflict and chaos between people with addiction and their loved ones is the power source for addiction. Stop wasting your energy on power struggles, resentment, and self-pity, and you'll be able to beat addiction once and for all. Don't believe me?!? Stick around, and I'll prove it to you!

Scientists find brain circuit that traps alcohol users in the vicious cycle of addiction | ScienceDaily
Addiction often isn’t about chasing pleasure—it’s about escaping pain. Researchers at Scripps Research have discovered that a tiny brain region called the paraventricular nucleus of the thalamus (PVT) becomes hyperactive when animals learn that alcohol eases the agony of withdrawal. This circuit helps explain why people relapse: their brains learn that alcohol brings relief from stress and anxiety.
