1 Effects of Drugs on the Brain and Behavior in Adolescents Lucas Moore, LCSW, SAC-IT Adolescent Substance Abuse Treatment Coordinator July 20, 2015 Wisconsin Department of Health Services
2 Today What would you like to get out of this discussion? What do you think drugs do to someone s brain? 2
3 Effects of Substances on Brain and Body Why talk about effects in the body? To see that consumers are not bad people just continuously making poor choices, rather they have physically altered brain function We are programmed to seek out pleasurable activities. Body rewards us for life-sustaining activities, teaching us to do them again 3
4 Effects of Substances on Brain and Body Most drugs of abuse hijack this reward system by flooding the circuit with dopamine. Affects brain regions that regulate movement, emotion, cognition, motivation, and feelings of pleasure 4
5 The Adolescent Brain 5 The brain has all of its gray matter by age 12. Cell bodies, neurons, nerve fibers, support cells, etc. Not fully wired and pruned until around age 25 (neuromaturation). Adding connections and taking away others to make brain processing more efficient Particularly in the prefrontal cortex Females done before males

9 Neurobiology of Addiction 9 Nucleus accumbens Has a significant role in the processing of: Motivation Pleasure Reward Reinforcement learning Plays a role in dopamine release Image from psiwebsubr.org

13 Neurobiology of Addiction Amygdalae Vital in formation and storage of emotional learning and fear response Right amygdala in particular handles negative emotions 13 Image from psiwebsubr.org
14 Neurobiology of Addiction 14 Amygdalae Left amygdala in particular processes pleasant and negative emotions, reward system. Each amygdala has a unique, specific function in how we perceive and process emotion. Image from psiwebsubr.org

21 Effects of Substances on Brain/Body 21 I like to think of the brain as being lazy. Since pleasure reward system is over-functioning, brain feels that this is a more efficient way to get its reward. Teaching it to want to do the same life-sustaining action over and over again More dopamine than naturally rewarding activities such as eating and sex Puts substance of choice as a priority over other normal, healthy, life-sustaining activities This is reinforced by a process called myelination.
22 Neurobiology of Addiction Myelination 22 Image from wikipedia.org
23 Epigenetics 23 This can have effects on the genetic level. No longer nature versus nurture, it is now how nature and nurture interact. Micro-evolutions can happen in one generation. May help explain the diathesis stress model and resilience. Individuals have different thresholds that trigger gene expression.

29 Gateway Drugs Do they exist? Causation versus correlation Cross tolerance When someone who is tolerant to the effects of a certain drug also develops a tolerance to another drug 29
30 Focused Discussion: Alcohol Powdered Alcohol Palcohol Currently in the process for federal approval Available in other countries already Needs to stay in a sealed container otherwise ethanol evaporates 58% alcohol by weight (until diluted in liquid) Easier to abuse Can be snorted 30 Protecting and promoting the health and safety of the people of Wisconsin
31 Focused Discussion: Marijuana 31 Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is the active agent Psychoactive, responsible for the high Volume, shape, and density of gray matter changes Study of 40 college students at Northwestern (20 marijuana users) Increase of volume of grey matter in nucleus accumbens and amygdala Change of shape and density in nucleus accumbens
32 Focused Discussion: Marijuana Marijuana users are more likely to use harder drugs than non-marijuana users Many of those who do use harder drugs, use marijuana first However: 107 million marijuana users in the U.S. 37 million have used cocaine 4 million have use heroin 32
33 Focused Discussion: Marijuana 33 American Journal of Psychiatry: correlation of use of marijuana and hard drugs is more likely due to individual tendencies and environmental circumstances The Institute of Medicine: the fact marijuana is illegal makes this correlation stronger What does this mean? Focus on preventing environmental and behavioral risk factors This is better than demonizing one particular drug
34 Focused Discussion Synthetics 34
35 Synthetic Marijuana Name is not accurate Dried plant material, synthetic drugs sprayed on Highs are unpredictable because of constantly varying chemical compounds Can precipitate psychosis Both acute symptoms and potential long-term issues depending on predisposition Other side effects can include heart issues and seizure 35 Protecting and promoting the health and safety of the people of Wisconsin
36 Synthetic Marijuana Symptoms 36 Nausea Hypertension (high blood pressure) Tachycardia (rapid heart rate) Blurred vision Agitation Vomiting Hallucinations Psychoses Myocardial Seizures infarction (heart Convulsions attack) Panic attacks Protecting and promoting the health and safety of the people of Wisconsin
37 Focused Discussion Opiates and Opioids 37
38 Heroin 38 An opioid, binds to opioid receptors in the brain Many of these receptors are in areas that are involved in the perception of pain and reward Also located in the brain stem Is a depressant Depressing brain stem functions, including breathing, can cause hypoxia (lack of oxygen to the brain. This can have short- and long-term effects
