Differentiating Between A Compulsion And An Addiction

Send us a text


Often the words Compulsion and Addiction are used
interchangeably, but there actually is a difference between a
compulsion and an addiction, and I want to help you understand
the difference.

I start by giving you a definition of what it means to have a
Compulsion and then contrast that with an Addiction. I also talk
about the brain's active role in which behaviour you will
choose.
