Sugar, opioids, social media, reaching for a glass of wine every time you feel anxious or tired - these and other addictive substances and behaviors affect nearly all of us. Substance use disorder expert Dr. Ruth Potee talks about dopamine and our brains and why we keep doing things that are not good for us. We also delve into how we, as a community, can help our family members and neighbors by reducing judgment and practicing kindness.Created and Hosted by Denise Schwartz and Carmela Lanza-WeilProduced by Alex Audette in Multimedia Studios at Greenfield Community CollegeEdited by Nina Bocko in Multimedia Studios at Greenfield Community College
