Addiction is a behavior that a person cannot give up, associated with an addiction to something and temporary relief from receiving it, as well as long-term negative consequences for the body such practice. Addiction is considered to be absolutely any behavior based on a passionate attraction, with negative consequences that a person cannot control. You can depend on anything. Every action or behavior - sex, gambling, shopping, work or substance use - involves the same brain patterns, reward systems, psychological dynamics and spiritual emptiness. People just switch from one thing to another. For me, the question is not whether you are using anything. But do you have a passion for this? Do you need a dose for relief? Does this have negative consequences for the body? The answers to these questions define addiction. How does addiction form? There are two types of events in childhood that leave a lasting impression on a child: 1-when something happens that should not have happened, or 2-when something that should have happened does not happen .The first is trauma in the classical sense, some strong tragic experience, the death of parents, domestic violence, abuse or other types of trauma in the usual sense. But there is another definition of trauma, when something that should have happened does not happen. Children are equally traumatized by both types of these experiences. For example, when there is a lack of much-needed emotional contact between parents and children, no one would call it trauma - but, in fact, it has an effect on the child similar to trauma. For example, a mother's postpartum depression, which, in general, cannot be called a trauma, can lead to a lack of the child's much-needed attention at this moment, and accordingly affect his emotional and intellectual development. The question is not whether a parent should be ideal. In modern society, there is not only the problem of whether parents love their children, but also the fact that parents are often emotionally isolated and stressed, worried about the financial situation of the family and, as a result, devote less time to their children. One way or another, emotional insufficiency at an early age is a universal pattern for the onset of addiction. The basis of all addictions is relief of suffering, self-comfort, and children console themselves when there is no one else to do it.
