*How Drugs Impact the Brain* : A Visual Perspective

The human brain is an incredibly complex and adaptable organ, but it is also highly vulnerable to the effects of substance use. This powerful image illustrates how different drugs can alter brain function and structure over time.

🧠Understanding the Image

At the top, we see a healthy brain with a smooth, well-formed surface, indicating normal blood flow and neural activity. In contrast, the brains exposed to substances like methamphetamine, alcohol, ma*****na, co***ne, opiates, and ni****ne (smoking) show noticeable damage—with irregularities, holes, and uneven textures, which represent reduced activity and impaired function.

*Effects of Substance Use on the Brain*

🔹 *M**hamphetamine* (M**h) – 3 Years of Use

Severe reduction in dopamine receptors, leading to memory loss, emotional instability, and cognitive decline.

Increases the risk of psychosis, aggression, and severe dental issues (“meth mouth”).

🔹 *Ma*****na* – 4 Years of Use

Though often considered harmless, chronic ma*****na use can alter brain development, particularly in young users.

Associated with memory impairment, reduced motivation, and changes in emotional regulation.

*🔹 Alcohol* – 10 Years of Use

Brain shrinkage and neuronal damage, affecting decision-making, motor control, and emotional stability.

Chronic alcohol use can contribute to dementia and liver-related brain diseases.

🔹 *Co***ne* – 4 Years of Use

Co***ne disrupts the brain’s reward system, leading to intense cravings, paranoia, and risk of strokes or seizures.

Reduces gray matter volume, impacting memory, impulse control, and judgment.

🔹 *Opiates* – 6 Years of Use

Opiates (such as he**in and prescription painkillers) can cause severe addiction and dependency.

Long-term use leads to respiratory issues, cognitive dysfunction, and emotional instability.,

ITS LESSON TIME
There's this part of the brain that controls the mind of a person. It is in charge of rational thinking and decision-making. That logical brain can be hijacked by stress, sickness, addiction, fear, anger, greed, crime, excitement and love. Yes I said love. An emotionally immature (low IQ) person is not able to control these emotions. That is why someone struggles to detach from someone that you have ever shared a bed with. After love fades light enters your logic brain and you wake to the reality of how much someone messed you up, wasted you and wasted your time. Parents with boychild, this is what happens to your sons when they come into the world from home without being grounded by a healed father-figure. That is how we have so many broken adults out there.
Emotional Intelligence is when you're able to regulate your emotions despite the external pressure or your family background. You fail as a man when you harm the emotional stability of a mother, knowing she is the primary source of strength to her children.
A dysfunctional family contributes so much to the mental well being of a mother and the safety of the children. It is so exhausting for a mother to go through the hormonal changes in pregnancy, go to labor ward and push the baby through labor pains, then go home to breastfeed a baby, sleepless nights with no one around to give her reassurance.
If you are a mother just make sure that you have a good support system to help you in your motherhood journey. A child is supposed to bring joy & not tears to the mother. If you feel overwhelmed by pain of a mother I am here to help you with therapy.
