When you\u2019re addicted to drugs, you can\u2019t resist the urge to use them, no matter how much harm the drugs may cause. At first, you may choose to take a drug because you like the way it makes you feel. You may think you can control how much and how often you use it. But over time, drugs change how your brain works. These physical changes can last a long time. They make you lose control and can lead to damaging behaviors.<\/p>\n<p>When you use drugs for a long time, it can cause changes in other brain chemical systems and circuits as well. They can hurt your:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Judgment<\/li>\n<li>Decision-making<\/li>\n<li>Memory<\/li>\n<li>Ability to learn<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Together, these brain changes can drive you to seek out and take drugs in ways that are beyond your control.
