My First Blog Post

Hi, my name is Megan and I am a grade 8 student who is learning all about addiction it's treatments, causes, etc. for my ISU project. My understanding of addiction is that it is more than just drugs and alcohol, anyone can be addicted to anything. Some people might not even realize that they have an addiction until they really look into it.

Some things that so many people are addicted to and they don't even realize it are shopping, money, love, internet/video games, food, exercise, gambling, etc. It can also be caused by and numerous amount of things, some things I believe cause it more than others but that's for another day. So no matter what you may be addicted I think that you should go receive help, even if you feel ashamed or embarrassed or like addiction doesn't matter because it matters and it is important. Tune into my blog to join me on my journey to research and find out everything and anything I can about addiction. Thanks for tuning in to my new blog , hope to see you soon!
