What is a biological reason for why heroin is addictive?
◦ Neurotransmitters are damaged and continue sending stimulating messages to cells.
◦ It produces an excess of dopamine in the brain.
◦ The bodies of heroin users do not produce endorphins, so withdrawal is very painful.
◦ Heroin bonds with serotonin, producing mental confusion in users.
