I was 14 when I first experienced opiate withdrawal but it was like a roller coaster.. The ups and downs were both still exciting.. didn't really admit it was a huge problem for about 10 years.. took me another 10 years to get sober.. most of my critical years of development were spent in the fog of addiction, now it's hard wired in my brain.. re-training my brain has only been possible because of a deeper understanding of the psychology of addiction, once I understood the problem I was able to work on the solution.. thank you so much for sharing information like this!! Now I compare it to wanting to ride a roller coaster that has killed or maimed all its previous riders.. I'll never get back on.. life is plenty exciting here on the ground.. I don't need to be endangering my life every day to appreciate that

I read your book in rehab. It was given to me by my counselor who could sense my boredom and lack of mental stimulation. I devoured that book, he gave me his textbooks to read as he was finishing another degree, i have often been told i am too smart or curious for my own good. Going to school to be a Neuroscientist/chemist. I am very young and have untreated adhd which is why i self medicated. It’s ironic you say you didn’t find a cure, because that’s exactly what i want to find lol. I cured myself. It takes therapy and medication and then 2-3 years of abstinence for some. Not a cure for all tho. It works for me

I am a recovering meth addict, I quit meth when I was 27years old then I became a alcoholic, I never did drink as a teenager, I am 45yrs old and I have battled alcohol for year's, I was sober from alcohol 5 years then the pandemic hit and I hit the wine bottle. It's definitely a daily struggle.

Dr. Grisel is a thoughtful and humble GENIUS. I am grateful that she has give so much of her life (literally) to afford us this invaluable information.

What a brave wonderful woman and the story that got her here. If you have an issue, go get educated. Courageous and smart! And a really liberating way to look at addiction I think.
-
Dr. Grisel, I really enjoyed your book "Never Enough" where you delved into this topic at greater length. Much like we teach kids in school about puberty so too should your message be part of the education curriculum.

I want to hug this lady for her words at the end.

Fascinating topic. I have just ordered your book. Thank you!

Just got her book NEVER ENOUGH. Glad I found her content!

Wow. This is incredible. What an amazing talk. I have a whole new respect and understanding for those who go through addiction and what it actually does to the brain. It would be exhausting, but overcoming it would be such an amazing reward. Definitely sharing this with some friends.

Your book is really helping me in my own recovery. Thank you for sharing your story and amassed knowledge.

Good lecture! It seems as depression is similar to the result of years of drug usage, but without having taken any. Question is: how to revert that?

Fascinating and insightful
-
so basically never stop!

I dont remember ever feeling homeostasis, or maybe just OK, before discovering Pot. I was over 50 before I discovered that I was covering trauma. Really early, hardwired response to trauma I dont even remember clearly. Great fun. Kinda made life difficult. I couldnt understand what was going on in me. Please . . . Be good to young people.

I wish I could get my husband to watch this!
-
Thank you so much.

Well this isn't quite what I'm looking for... I'm 3 years sober and I'm still miserable and have drug dreams and nightmares. It won't let go of me even though I let go of it a long time ago.

I like that she differentiates between acute use of marijuana and habitual use
