#Did U Know⁉️
💊Why do humans get addicted to things⁉️
🧠The human brain is wired to reward us when we do something pleasurable. Exercising, eating, and other behaviors that are directly linked to our survival trigger the release of a neurotransmitter called dopamine. This not only makes us feel good, but it encourages us to keep doing what we're doing.
🔴The dopamine effect triggers the pleasure and pain response. When we engage in something pleasurable, our brains release a chemical called dopamine which makes us feel good. Dopamine helps to reinforce the action, so we repeatedly engage in the same activity. Eventually, a habit forms, and we are stuck & addicted.
