Interesting Extras


A fun internet interactive media: MOUSE PARTY


This presentation primarily depicts how drugs interact with dopamine neurotransmitters because this website focuses on the brain's reward pathway. Mouse Party is designed to provide a small glimpse into the chemical interactions at the synaptic level that cause the drug user to feel 'high'. It's simplified but good to watch if you want a glimpse into the brain of a person on drugs. Also good to show your children or people in a treatment center.

Speaking 'Recovery'
