These are called lesions. Brain lesions can be caused by injury, infection, exposure to certain chemicals, problems with the immune system, and more. Typically, their cause is unknown.These are called lesions. Brain lesions can be caused by injury, infection, exposure to certain chemicals, problems with the immune system, and more.

Endorphins, the natural chemical in your brain that produces pain relief. It also effects the dopamine levels of the brain, which control how happy and euphoric you feel. If you take enough opiates over a long period of time, the brain stops naturally producing these two chemicals, because it gets used to the boost the opiates given to it. That's why it's so difficult to come off of opiates. You feel depressed and in pain, because your brain is not used to producing these chemicals on their own anymore. It takes time for the brain to heal and to eventually produce these chemicals normally again.
It makes chemicals. For example, chemicals from and to the brain and stomach help you to know when you are hungry/full.
