The psychology of addiction involves understanding how substances or behaviors become compulsive despite negative consequences. Addiction is characterized by a persistent craving and loss of control, driven by changes in the brain's **reward system**, particularly the release of **dopamine**. This leads to **tolerance**, where increasing amounts of the substance or behavior are needed to achieve the same effect, and **withdrawal symptoms** when it is absent. Psychological factors, such as **genetic predisposition**, **stress**, and **trauma**, contribute to the development of addiction. **Behavioral** and **cognitive factors** also play a role, where habits and thought patterns reinforce the addictive behavior. Effective treatment often combines **therapy**, **medication**, and **support systems** to address both the psychological and physical aspects of addiction.
