In the Psychological model, the addiction was driven from stress. Guilt and shame were usually associated with the addiction, but other reasons while play a role in the addiction (Lewis, 2014). The client uses blame for using, like another person caused them to do self-medicate. Therapist may use behavior therapy, or use coping mechanisms to encourage a total recovery (Lewis, 2014). The psychological model suggests that the addiction is an individual program (Lewis, 2014). Within the Psychological model, drugs, like heroin, work to mimic the brains own chemicals because they activate neurons, which do not active neurons in the same way as they normal would, this leads to abnormal messages that are transmitted in your brain (National Institute on Drug Abuse, 2014) Drugs, for example, Cocaine, can release neurotransmitters that prevent …show more content…
Addictions have become increased through the last decades, and have become the focus of social, economics, and political attention. The motivation can be traced and analyzed within social, cultural, family contexts, and living situations. New Forms are addictions, like internet gambling as becoming popular. Neuroscience will approve on older medical models of addiction by promises to provide more causal explanations of addictions in terms of detailed changes in the brain processes. I also can predict that there will be more effective drugs to assist people in the cessation of drug use. These drugs can act on key neutral reward pathways or affect drug metabolism (Hall, 2004). Saying this, within the advances in neuroscience, the future will encourage neuroscience into managing their policies into higher levels. There will be more medical models, and moral models that will increase positive change with their interventions, and will avoid causal models of addiction that would be misinterpreted, especially on the psychological model and the socio-cultural
