Behavioral addiction results in an individual who continues to engage in the same behavior despite persistent consequences. Addictions may look different in terms of perception but all are the same like drug addiction, alcohol addiction, and behavioral -addiction. The results of addiction can be different like

  • Gambling can cause the financial crisis
  • Alcohol can cause liver damage

Directly and indirectly, financial crisis or loss may occur due to both gambling and alcoholism. The results of addiction on health and life must be taken into consideration.

The American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) defines addiction as “ the primary disease of the brain circuit that is responsible for modulating motivation, reward, and memory.” This accounts for why individuals continue to engage in the behavior of addiction, despite experiencing the adverse consequences.

Alcohol addiction starts from consuming a few sips of alcohol at social gatherings and parties. Slowly and steadily, the alcohol will empower you and your brain which will result in cravings. Defeating these desires of indulgence into alcohol or cravings is very important to put an end to addiction.
