Adrenaline AddictionPeople who like a high level of adrenaline in their blood partake in
extreme sports, despite injuries and other possible negative consequences.
I participated in studies that confirm
withdrawal syndrome (
like a hangover in alcoholics) in athletes: depression, irritability and sadness.
Under stress, we follow the
"hit or run" reaction.
But what good is it? In moments of stress,
adrenaline is not the only hormone released, there is also
norepinephrine, which causes
a feeling of euphoria and happiness.
Thus, an adrenaline junkie might endanger his life to provoke stress.
