In an electronic device voltage and current are contained and carried along wires and pathways called circuits. When a pathways is broken it’s called a open circuit and current cannot pass. If a pathway is connected where is should not, current may flow along an unintended pathway and is called a short circuit. This short circuit will cause malfunction in the device. The malfunction could be minor and just annoying. But it can also be bad enough to cause a no function condition. Or the the very worst case damage or destruction of the device.
So short circuits are bad and should be avoided. Our brain has behaviors that are like short circuits. The highly addictive substances can cause short circuits or influence our behaviors. The behaviors can be slight, annoying or self destructive.
- Opioids
- Alcohol
- Nicotine
- Sugar
These are known, addictive and destructive because they change human behavior that harms our health. Harm in the extreme leading to death. No joke. No exaggeration.
