An addict is someone that can t stop taking a drug (or other behavioral problems), Dependency upon a drug for the release of feel good dopamine stems from a number of things, Females get there dopamine from there love partner, well until there partner leaves them, not saying that all females are this way, If life for humans is dull, and those that are trap in a routine life, are they consider dependents, and would they fall under the condition of maintenance, for there dopamine release??? Thank you for your time and consideration...
