Dr. Grande, thank you for creating this channel! It is a phenomenal resource, and you are a light! I do have one question, and I'm going to try my darndest to drop it here with no elaboration because I think you'd have a unique perspective. I have a tendency to babble, and then I end up with novel-length inquiries I never send. It's not as odd a behavior as it sounds - long story, TBI, writing became my speech. It's a rather therapeutic and mindful practice. However, if you ever decide to start therapy-by-email service, please announce it on your channel, and by golly, I will find a way to raise the money to sign up! :) Anyway, my question is: how can you tell if your use of a substance prescribed for legitimate medical reasons crosses the line into abuse? One qualifier - assume you aren't out driving around about to harm anyone else. Okay. That's it, Jenn, stop typing (smacks hand). Hope you come across this, but regardless, thank you again for all you do. I'm kinda low-key addicted to your channel, but I've convinced myself that's a healthy thing, haha! :)
This definitely proves that the reward system for the brain is not yet fully understood . Especially after hearing that a process disorder caused a significant change in brain chemistry despite being no substances involved .
Holy moly! I just stumbled into a bunch of your diagnostic explanation videos I haven't seen yet. Awesome, as always. Thanks again Dr. Grande!!
Thank you Dr. Grande. You explained the two very clearly. I am grateful for your video.

Thank you Dr Grande. Please could you expand on process addiction with grandiose narcissistic personality.
I wish you could do more addiction videos now
