A true addiction refers to the state in which a person feels he/she need to continue the drug in order to function properly. The addiction can manifest in the drug addicts brain telling the addict that the drug will make him ''feel better''. Drug addiction can also manifest itself physically-when the addict stops using his drug of choice, he will go through physical withdrawal symptoms that (it seems) can only be stopped by taking more of the abused drug. Many people assume that it takes quite a long time to become an addict. The truth is that there are many drugs out there, like meth and heroin that are highly addictive and can create an addiction after just a single use.
''How does this happen?''
First, let's look at how the brain normally functions. As a person goes through his day his brain will release a variety of hormones and chemicals that dictates how a person feels. When the brain releases it's dopamine production the person feels happier. When the brain triggers the release if endorphins the person is better able to cope with stress. The brain might release a chemical telling you that you are hungry (after the emptiness of your stomach your brain will prompt you to do so). When a person takes drugs of his choice it eventually takes over the chemical production of his brain. To tell you the truth a person never really ''needs'' the drug they just chose to take it.
