Fame to addiction: A Journey not to be followed!
Why do we get addicted to drugs?
We often tend to do things regularly which make us happy and feel rejuvenated. But what if we get prone to the habit of drugs? Before answering this question another question that pops up is that why do people make drugs the part of their daily schedule? Addiction is also called as biopsychosocial disorder usually caused by drugs or alcohol. Like children like to have more chocolates as they eat them one by one, similarly, drugs often excite the human brain and we crave it for more. Now answering the first question, as it is said there are always two sides of a coin (positive and negative), but here the negative side is predominantly heavier than the positive side and there are absolute reasons behind it.
