Dr. Berg talks about opioid and heroin addictions and are they really a disease or merely a symptom. When someone is addicted to opioids or heroin or any drug, whats happening is certain neurotransmitters are creating certain effects and sensations like pleasure. This includes dopamine, GABA, serotonin, etc. In fact, the effect of some of these drugs are 10x that of food and sex. This makes it highly addictive. At first the person feels incredible, then the body starts to protect itself and resist it causing a downgrade of it's receptors. This leads to a lack of absorption as well as lack of production of dopamine. Its the neurotransmitter depletion that creates the withdrawal symptoms and the addiction.
Certain drugs are then recommended, like methadone. This is replacing one drug for another. It is called Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT). Here's the problem. It comes with a package first of all, there are massive side effects and a new addiction of this drug.
SIDE EFFECTS COULD INCLUDE: -seizures -decrease libido -impotence -weight gain -hallucinations -sleep apnea -vomiting -heart arrhythmia -death (over 3300 in 2015) -suicide thoughts -depression -apathy -panic attacks -paranoia
