Description: Addiction is a complex and chronic brain disorder characterized by a compulsive and harmful engagement with a particular substance, behavior, or activity, despite knowing its negative consequences. It typically involves a dependence on the substance or behavior to experience pleasure or relief and an increasing tolerance over time, leading to a need for more of the substance or activity to achieve the same effect. Addiction can have profound effects on an individual's physical, psychological, and social well-being, often leading to a loss of control over their actions and priorities. Common examples include substance addictions like drugs and alcohol, as well as behavioral addictions like gambling or, as mentioned earlier, gaming addiction.
