“...there will never be enough drug, because the brain's capacity to learn and adapt is basically infinite.”
Judith Grisel, Never Enough: The Neuroscience and Experience of Addiction

“A victim of virtually any disease usually elicits pity, addicts mostly evoke revulsion. What is it about the irrational behavior of an addict that makes everyone want to turn away?”
Judith Grisel, Never Enough: The Neuroscience and Experience of Addiction

“However, it was there that I began to realize that my initial intuitions about alcohol and other drugs were precisely upside down. Rather than provide a solution to my problems with living, they had chipped away at every prospect until only the barest shred of life remained. I’d sought wellness and became sick; fun, but lived in a constant state of anxious dread; freedom, and was enslaved. In just ten years, my sources for solace had totally betrayed me, carving out a canyon deep and unlivable. Drugs were destroying every aspect of my life, yet my days revolved around self-administering until I passed out.”
Judith Grisel, Never Enough: The Neuroscience and Experience of Addiction
