Other Than Releasing Chemicals Such as Dopamine Into the Body, What Else Do Drugs Do?
Question by Bryan: Other than releasing chemicals such as dopamine into the body, what else do drugs do?
Dopamine is the pleasure hormone, but drugs do more than just give pleasure. Cannabis, for increase, relaxes muscles and relieves nausea, while morphine kills pain. Both drugs interact with neurons to release more dopamine, but the two drugs have different properties.
What else do these drugs do to the body?

I Have Been an on and Off Heroin Addict for Many Many Years. I Mostly Do It Recreationally but When I Have?
Question by jello: i have been an on and off heroin addict for many many years. i mostly do it recreationally but when i have?
been addicted it has been entirely purposefully, as if i need a time out from life, and i have quit when i really wanted to. not to say it hasnt been very physically and psychologically painful, for it does cause permanent mood problems. i have recreationally smoked crack for many years, it has only been recent that i had become a crackhead. i didnt know i was a crackhead at the time, i thought it was the same as heroin, that i was in control, and i was, kind of. anyway, after a year i kicked, and quite easily at that, and it has been several months since i’ve done it, but i keep getting these images of smoking crack that cause extreme physical urges. the truth is, crack isnt even fun. it causes me to become crazy and paranoid, but the desire is so strong anyway. . apparently lab rats will desire crack to their deaths. why do i desire a drug thats not fun? as opposed to heroin, which is physically more addictive more enjoyable, but doesnt cause me such immediate desire?

What Kind of Drug Test Shows a Positive Test for Heroin/methadone?
Question by Biking in 209: What kind of drug test shows a positive test for heroin/methadone?
My ex-wife is a heroin addict who is in methadone “treatment”. She is coming after my children that I have had 75% custody of since the seperation. She has told the court that she is in treatment, but family and friends state that she is currenty back on heroin and maybe abusing her methadone. My problem is that the county court’s drug test is a hair test and only shows up “opiates”. My lawyer is convinced that no other test will work. I am desperate to find a test that will either show heroin and methadone seperate, or will show she’s abusing her doses. This woman walked out of her family’s life and five years later has no job, income, and has another child out of wedlock. I have three children that are scared to death to be with her, and when they do, they always come back emotionally scarred. Please help! Thanks
