Study : Adrenaline Rush and Addiction

To understand what an adrenaline addict is, you have to know what the symptoms are. Because it is an addiction and it leads to cravings, but unlike other natural drugs the withdrawal symptoms are less obvious, but still present.
Most people don’t realise that the effects of adrenaline aren’t found doing an activity, its found prior to doing something, as that’s when the adrenaline starts to build up.Doing the activity dissipates the chemicals.

If a rush of adrenaline is frequent enough, everyday day, week, month, the body can (and does) memorise this ‘feeling’ with its own body clock, memories of surroundings and other similar references (from our 5 senses) and can trigger the release a lot earlier than required. A normal build up, can occur anywhere between ~0-15 mins before an activity. This will be uncontrollable at first and may take many months of frequency before the signs are obvious. Eventually, you can get to the stage where you can trigger the effect by thinking about the activity in any situation. Now I know this isn’t showing the effects of an addiction, its merely showing how the cause can lead to the effect and the recognition of how it can be summoned with thought.
