Explain how the brain is affected when a person relapses?

 

Relapse is a phase that's predictable. Addicts accelerate their patterns of avoidance, increasing fear and frustration to mask pain. This depletes endorphins, causing fatigue and hopelessness. Addicts are alone in this state of fatigue and believe they can not cope without chemicals. In the relapse scale, every letter in the word "FASTER" stands for one of the measures. This scale represents the progression of intense pain-masking emotions. In its fall to addiction, it neurochemically describes what almost any addict goes through.

Step-by-step explanation

We have two parts in our brains. The neocortex is the first element. It is located at the front of the head and receives and stores decision-making and remembering information. The other component is known as the limbic system, which governs all of the body's automatic processes and emotions. Relapse is a phase that's predictable. Addicts accelerate their patterns of avoidance, increasing fear and frustration to mask pain. This depletes endorphins, causing fatigue and hopelessness. Addicts are alone in this state of fatigue and believe they can not cope without chemicals. In the relapse scale, every letter in the word "FASTER" stands for one of the measures. This scale represents the progression of intense pain-masking emotions. In its fall to addiction, it neurochemically describes what almost any addict goes through. Know, adrenaline and norepinephrine, which speed up the body, are triggered by rage and anxiety. We get ticked off and then tired after speeding up. There is one thing in common with all phases in the relapse process: procrastination. You move down the FASTER scale when you struggle to deal with issues. Crisis comes at a time when it's the least you can take. The FASTER scale's brief version forgets goals that pace ticked off tired relapse. To interrupt the fall into addiction, by being mindful of their actions and making positive decisions to avoid the downward spiral, addicts must take responsibility for where they are on the scale.
