Our state does not allow gambling anymore but when it did
I threw away thousands of dollars and I can’t blame the media. I got this huge adrenalin rush when those triple sevens would hit and I had bet a fair amount, like 1.60 a pull. This was a 200.00 win and then you do it a few more times and get another 200.00 win and then you change machines, and wow!! It just happens again. This is addicting, the media had nothing to do with it. The problem is that you spend thousands trying to make it happen again. This was just on a slot at a convenience store. The adrenalin rush was fantastic.

Question by Calypso: Is a drug addiction similar to psychological addiction?
I know in a drug addict’s brain nerves connect together and tell the brain and body it needs the drug to live. Also if they become sober they face the possibility of relapse despite the number of years of being sober. Is this the same as a psychological addiction?

As you seem to have distinguished there are in fact two types of addictions: pyscological, and physiological (what you call a drug addiction). The two are very simmilar, and in many drugs both present (cocain, meth, etc.). However there are suttle differences (mostly found in the symptoms. For example physiological addiction will manifest itself through physical symptoms (painful withdrawl, erratic behavior, etc.), whereas psycological symptoms are more often not as easy to notice (decreased mental capactiy, strong feeling of need toward the drug, etc.). The short answer to your question is yes.
