What causes addiction?
Yes, please. How exactly do genetic factors play a role in addiction?
Genetics can influence a person's likelihood of developing an addiction. Research has shown that certain genetic variations can affect the way neurotransmitters work in the brain, which can increase the risk of addictive behaviors. Additionally, genetics can impact a person's ability to metabolize drugs, which can make them more susceptible to addiction.
