Best answer:
Answer by Beautrixrabbit
Drug abuse is an interaction between individual genes, neurochemical systems, psychological motivations and beliefs and environment. Biologically, any substance will impacs the neurochemical receptors of the brain. Illicit drugs for example interact with the dopaminergic and serotonergic pathways of the brain. These pathways are responsible for reward-pleasure seeking learning. Hence, repeated activation of these pathways may result in drug-seeking behaviour. But genes play a huge role as they mediate the receptivity of those pathways. Some people’s reward systems will be more sensitive to the effects of a drug and therefore they will learn and become conditioned to a drug more rapidly and hence become more dependant. But psychological factors also intervene as well.

We’re really low on cash at the moment, but we really need to get my son into a rehab. I don’t know where I’m going to get the money if we can’t get a discount. Can anyone please give me information on low-cost treatment programs in our vicinity?

I’m not sure which drug rehabs are low-cost, but I did send you links that may help you. You can apply for a grant from the government. You can also inquire at various drug rehabs to see if they will be willing to give you a discount or let you pay off the bill at a later date. Good luck.
