Drugs enter the body through ingestion, smoke, or injection. The drug travels quickly through the body and either stops or passes through the blood-brain barrier into brain tissue. Different drugs have a different effect on the brain. In this discussion, you will explore this process using different drug types. In most cases of drug use, the person using the drug experiences a neurotransmitter reward (pleasurable feeling). The neurotransmitters responsible for the rewards are: serotonin, dopamine, GABA, glutamate, acetycholine, norepinephrine, and endorphins. Use the scenarios below to make predictions about how the brain will react when those drugs are present. <\/p>\n

Unit 2 Discussion | Brianna Transcript
Brianna (teenage female)
I have been wanting to get high for like, months. We smoke dope a lot, but I wanted to do something different and special since we\u2019ll all be graduating from high school soon. Usually, we just smoke a joint or two on the weekend, but last night, we finally got a chance to try it. So, we paid for 2 grams and waited till my parents left for the weekend. Then, we used. I did my first line at about 6:00pm and WOW! I have never felt anything like this before. It was like a jolt went through my body numbing my tongue, nose, and lips. Usually, I am the quiet one from my crowd. Not last night \u2014 I began talking and I don\u2019t remember stopping. My friends couldn\u2019t stand my chatter, so I went outside. I had my phone, so WHY NOT? I started dialing numbers randomly and talking to whoever answered the phone. I did this for what felt like hours. I just felt amazing: energized, free, and clearer than I ever have. Only problem was, I couldn\u2019t sleep at all last night or today. All I know is that I can\u2019t wait to do it again!<\/p>\n
