Trishala Dutt on her father Sanjay Dutt and his past drug addiction
Among the multiple questions answered by Trishala, one of them mentioned her father Sanjay Dutt and his past drug addiction and she answered it in detail. The question was, “Since you are a psychologist, what’s your opinion on your father’s past drug addiction?'' Trishala answered the question in detail and how drugs affect a person’s thinking and their brain changes due to use. Have a look at what she wrote.
“First, it’s important to note that addiction is a chronic disease characterized by drug seeking and use that is compulsive or difficult to control, despite harmful consequences. The Initial decision to take drugs is voluntary for most people, but repeated drug use can lead to brain changes that challenge an addicted person’s self-control and interfere with their ability to resist intense urges to take drugs. These brain changes can be persistent, which is why drug addiction is considered a “Relapsing” Disease- People in recovery from drug use disorders are at increased risk for returning to drug use even after years of not using drugs.”
She further added, “After a while, it does not become a want anymore, but rather a need to feel “Normal” because of how their brain chemical have changed by drug abuse. They are no longer “Chasing” normalcy for them now. – Which Is Heartbreaking. All of us should have compassion for this disease and for the people and families it effects.”
“When it comes to my father’s past drug use, he will always be in recovery. It’s a disease he has to fight Every. Single. Day. Even though he is not using anymore. I’m proud of my father for admitting he had a problem, taking initiative, and seeking help for it. There is nothing, not a d**n thing, to be ashamed about.”
