Strange Addictions
When you first think of an addict you might think of drugs or alcohol for but there are some strange addictions that people have. Compulsive behaviors cause people to have addictions to strange things.In some cases addictive triggers can also come from nutritional deficiency, which is mostly found in children. Brain chemistry imbalances can create a sense of anxiety that ingesting a craved substance appears to relieve. Brain chemistry also fuel the feelings that lead to the cravings, impulse, anxiety, and the endorphin release when the craving is indulged. The brain releases a positive endorphin for indulging in the very substance that is harmful to the body. When a strange addiction includes an unusual attraction to a substance or an unusual behavior, there is often an underlying emotional link the person is not consciously aware of.
