It is inborn

Addiction is not actually an acquired disease but it is an inborn one. That is how some people say. I don’t know which of them is right, those who say that it is acquired or those who say it is inborn but me personally think that it is really inborn. See, those people who are addicts are always crazy about something and they are always possessed with something. The different things they are possessed with bit the nature of this addiction is the same. People bother only about the most dangerous addiction, about those addictions that are really harmful for an addict and for people around them, but they can’t see a number of other addictions people suffer from. It is enough to think about those we call the former drug addicts. The only way for them to get rid of that addiction is to find another. If you think over the future lives of those former drug addicts than you will see that all of them are religious addicts now. And those addicts who failed to find another addition got back into previous one and they immersed there deeper. And that means that such people need something t be possessed with and they are not cured, they only replace one addiction with another.

Drug addicts

It is horrible when you know that a person is a drug addict and people are talking a lot about it and they say that it is a real grief. But, they never know what they are talking about. The size of this grief is known for those only who have drug addicts among people they love. It is ease to talk about those you have never seen and never cared about, but the pain hurts twice more when it is about the one you really love. And what is the worst thing in this situation is that you realize that there is nothing you can do. Indeed, there is nothing you can do to save such a person because the only way for them to recover is the way of their own will to this. But, they almost always appear to be too weak to do it. And the only thing you can do is to watch the whole stuff, you watch a person you love kills its self and you know that soon a day will come when this guy will turn into something or someone you have never known. They turn into creatures without feelings and foundations and with a single need – a need for another dose.

A sweet addiction

An addiction to chocolate is one of the best types of dependencies to have. Not at all life threatening it is safe to be addicted to this product. However, one minute on the lips and a lifetime on the hips, chocolate addiction does have its disadvantages. Loved for its creamy delicious smooth texture, a piece of chocolate melting in your mouth is very desirable.
There are different types of chocolate that people form addictions to starting with dark chocolate all rich and bold to white chocolate that is so creamy and irresistible. Milk chocolate is also a favourite because it is the most accessible of the types and it has the highest number of addicts. A chocolate addiction is caused because chocolate is such an aphrodisiac. It has the power of putting you on a high and because of the serotonin it contains released in your blood every time you eat it, you feel happy and in love. Besides the terrible disadvantage of weight gain that a chocolate addiction brings there are other negatives. Many people suffer from acne as a result of eating too much chocolate. Chocolate also has many advantages such as reducing oxidation in the body and preventing heart attacks.
To keep up with a delicious chocolate addiction, you can get your fix from hot chocolate, chocolate cake or even cocoa powder products. Luckily, chocolate is available in any store in any city and unlike other addictions you can openly buy it and enjoy it at anytime.

Withdraw

No matter what your addiction might be, withdrawal is not a fun period in your life. If you are coming off of an opiate addiction, an alcohol addiction, or an addiction to an illegal substance, you are in for a sweaty ride. You are going to have symptoms for a long time, as any addiction takes practice and dedication to overcome. During the withdrawal period it is best if you have some sort of medical supervision, a safe place to withdrawal from (even if that is your home) and someone to help you through those rough moments of addiction. It can be a rough road back form addiction but the journey is worth it in the long run. Your health, your life, and your world depend on your ability to get clean.

Some symptoms of addiction might include an irregular heart rate, chills, sweats, an inability to regulate your body temperature, vomiting, diarrhea, tremors, and emotional swings or depression. There can be additional symptoms depending on what you want to withdrawal from. Addiction is serious business, and going through the withdrawal is going to challenge you. Remember that once you start, you already have time in. Giving into your addiction now will only mean that you have to serve that time again. Who wants to add three or four days to a six week ling withdrawal? You need not be ashamed of your addiction, and you might want to consider making sure there is an addiction expert on hand to talk you through your wide range of symptoms.

Addiction

Addiction means a passion for something that cannot be overcome. Most of the younger generation has a real addiction to drugs. They want just to try and see what effect such a little pill or the only injection may cause. The result is sad and absolutely unexpected. Addiction to drugs is a terrible disease, very hard to cure, as it destroys all the nervous system, liver, kidneys, a person loses ability to think and other changes are just destructive.

One more addiction is alcohol addiction. Usually it starts with a bottle of beer. The first weeks and months of such an evening pleasure to have a bottle of beer just after the working day look quite normal. In half a year it is hard to recognize a man having addiction to alcohol. Trembling fingers show the sign of nervous instability of all organs. People do not believe that they are ill and do not agree to take a proper treatment to get rid of such a habit.

One more addiction is gambling. Cards, roulette, nervous expecting of fortune to be won makes a person forget everything/ Fortunes are not won but lost in casinos all over the world. Nobody knows how many suicides were committed after great losses. It is very hard to get rid of gambling addiction. Psychologists all over the world try to work out a reliable method of curing such addictions.

Strong Internet addiction

From practicing psychiatrists have increasingly been on the increase in the number of patients, the main complaints are related to the influence of the Internet. In August 1999 approximately 83 million Americans have been connected to the Internet, and this number is growing steadily. In 2000, it should grow further by about 12 million. Along with the increasing popularization of the Internet to increase the number of patients that could be a serious problem for humans, while the methods of treatment and about the nature of the disease is known very little. Support for and development of Internet technologies, previously considered only in the context of utilitarian use of the network should be considered in relation to mental health. It is necessary to develop safety programs, rehabilitation centers and support groups. New research should include the development of standard tools for determining cyber-dependent people and assess their condition, that in the future to understand the role of communication and influence of the Internet to other established habits (such as alcoholism, gambling, sexual complexes) and psychiatric conditions. We have allocated five major subtypes of the main diagnosis of "Internet addiction" to describe, as it is addicted people: cyber, virtual dating, addiction to online stock trading and gambling, obsessive surfing, finally, one of the most famous cases, an addiction to computer games. The successful treatment requires that people realized that he was sick, and then attempts to save the patient from his sexual complexes, which are often a consequence of inferiority complex. Also very effective is to switch attention to the rights of his family or training for various social skills. We have approved the medical program to the main problems faced by Internet-dependent people.
