Scientists in Brazil are developing the first vaccine that could help break cocaine addiction::The vaccine is designed to help produce anti-cocaine antibodies in the body of a person who is chemically dependent on the substance.
Addiction is a symptom not a root issue. If the context of someone’s addiction is escapism then this theoretically will just push them to another potentially more harmful method.
For things that are physically addictive, addiction is actually a disease.
They change the way your brain functions and can elevate themselves to the same level as thirst in some cases.
You aren’t wrong that other factors can cause a person to use addictive substances and this won’t help with that.
But many people do addictive substances purely because they get addicted.
In many cases addiction makes your life way worse and the things you do to feed it are horrendous. So this argument doesn’t apply to many.
Sure but I don’t think there is no one who resolved their root cause but still are hooked by their chemical addiction
