Even those who have a relatively low risk of genetic factors, may be susceptible with repeated exposure to high doses of an addictive drug. [pb_glossary id=\"94\"]Epigenetic genes[\/pb_glossary] (CDC, 2022) and their related proteins are the key components through which environmental factors can affect the genes of an individual. They are also responsible for environmental influences on genes, meaning behavioral responses to environmental stimuli. In addiction, epigenetic mechanisms play a central role in the pathophysiology of the disease. More research is needed to know the extent to which these genes play a role in addiction and the corresponding behaviors (Herman &amp; Roberto, 2015; Lumen).\r\n\r\nFor more on the neurochemistry and addiction, please watch these videos.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n[h5p id=\"49\"]\r\n<h2>The Cycle of Addiction<\/h2>\r\nAddiction is describe as the repeating cycle of three stages (shown below; select the double pointed arrow in the lower right corner to expand the graphic to full screen). Each stage is particularly associated with one of the brain regions (basal ganglia, extended amygdala, and prefrontal cortex) (APA, 2022; Fudge &amp; Emiliano, 2003; Lipton, et al., 2019; Shackman, 2016). This three-stage model draws on decades of research and provides a useful way to recognize the cycle of addiction.\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Basal Ganglia: Involved in the Binge \/ Intoxication Stage<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Extended Amygdala: Involved in the Withdrawal \/ Negative Affect Stage<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Prefrontal Cortex: Involved in the Preoccupation \/ Anticipation Stage<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n[h5p id=\"7\"]\r\n<h2>Theories of Addiction<\/h2>\r\nSeveral theories or models of addiction are studied and emphasized in the world of addiction. We will be covering the following in the remainder of this chapter as well as some influencing factors.\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Addictive Disease Model<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Behavioral\/Environmental Model<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Academic Model<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Diathesis Stress Theory of Addiction<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h3>Addictive Disease Model<\/h3>\r\nThe disease model of addiction compares and contrasts the differences between those who have an addiction and those that do not. This theory defines addiction as a disease that changes the brain structure and functioning (Butler Center for Research, 2021). This model considers addiction a disease that can never be \"cured\". This is strongly related to the slides provided that discuss the different brain structures affected by addiction (Racine, et al., 2017)\r\n\r\nRecovery, from this perspective means that the recovering person must always refrain from use or connection to addictive substances and activities. Abstaining from these activities can be very challenging, so the theory recommends a support group, usually comprised of peers. A well-known example is Alcoholics Anonymous. It is a group of people struggling with the same addiction to alcohol. They can better understand and support each other because they too are struggling with the addiction.\r\n\r\n[h5p id=\"8\"]\r\n<h3>Behavioral\/Environmental Model<\/h3>\r\nResearch suggests that environmental factors my affect substance abuse behaviors. Factors that can promote abuse behaviors can include access and exposure, racial and socioeconomic status, and barriers to treatment. If you think back to Chapter 1, and the mention of psychological reasons for addiction, this paired with environmental triggers could promote addictive tendencies. There is research to support the idea that these behavioral and environmental barriers impact addiction, but ultimately more research needs to be done to discover the where, why, and how these affect a person (Surgeon General).\r\n<h3>Academic Model<\/h3>\r\nThis model was proposed by C.K. Himmelsbach in the early 1940s. This model revolves around [pb_glossary id=\"126\"]allostasis[\/pb_glossary]. This model suggests that pleasure, salience, and withdrawal are all linked to allostasis in addictive scenarios (De Ridder, et al., 2016; Olney, et al., 2018). For example, originally, it was thought that the amount of pleasure an addicted person experiences, decreases over time and requires increased amounts of the substance (tolerance). But more recently, research suggests that allostasis is a normal response to maintain stability when the parameters for normal functioning are outside the \"normal\" range and thereby resets those parameters.\r\n<h3>Diathesis-Stress Model of Addiction<\/h3>\r\nThe diathesis-stress model combines biology and psychology to predict the predisposition of a disorder (Berridge &amp; Robinson, 2016). This ultimately suggests that people are predisposed to be a certain way when faced with stressors, like trauma, life events, abuse, etc. It's not always just biological, it can also be psychological. The key components of this model as the the predisposition (diathesis) and the stress must be present for the disorder to occur.\r\n<h2>Other Addictions<\/h2>\r\nThere are other addictions beyond substances like cocaine or alcohol. These can include gambling, eating, sex, pornography, computers, video games, social media, exercise, and shopping. By no means is this an exhaustive list, but it does mention a fair number that might be pertinent in your life. The \"drug\" of choice, be it alcohol or gambling (Gorzelanczyk, et al., 2021) is typically [pb_glossary id=\"128\"]goal-oriented[\/pb_glossary]. The goal may be affected by the stress and withdrawal experienced by the user. Typically, individuals differ in their experience of value, due to their different risk factors. The end result, however, is that the individual experiences a minimized negative state when participating in these situations, accomplishing their goal. Below are some optional studies and information related to non-drug addictions (Szerman, 2020).\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.frontiersin.org\/articles\/10.3389\/fpsyt.2020.589155\/full\">Gambling Dual Disorder: A Dual Disorder and Clinical Neuroscience Perspective<\/a><\/li>\r\n \t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.frontiersin.org\/articles\/10.3389\/fnins.2020.597524\/full\">Evaluation of Risk Behavior in Gambling Addicted and Opioid Addicted Individuals<\/a><\/li>\r\n \t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.frontiersin.org\/articles\/10.3389\/fpsyg.2015.01374\/full\">The Bergen Shopping Addiction Scale: Reliability and Validity of a Brief Screening Test<\/a><\/li>\r\n \t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.frontiersin.org\/articles\/10.3389\/fpsyg.2019.02894\/full\">Video Game Addiction\u00a0 and Emotional States: Possible Confusion Between Pleasure and Happiness?<\/a><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h2>Anonymous Organizations<\/h2>\r\nBelow is a short list of \"Anonymous\" organizations that support those with addiction; these are 12-step programs.
