The Science of Addiction
🔬 Addiction is not a lack of willpower; it is a chronic brain disease that alters how the brain functions. Substances like opioids and alcohol impact the brain’s reward system, making it harder to resist cravings and easier to relapse.

✅ The good news: Recovery is possible with evidence-based treatment. At Serenity Recovery Centers, our programs address both the biological and behavioral aspects of Addiction, offering long-term tools for healing.

🚨 Fentanyl: The Hidden Danger

⚠️ Fentanyl is 50 times stronger than he**in and 100 times stronger than morphine. Even 2 milligrams, about the size of a few grains of salt, can be deadly.

💊 Many counterfeit pills sold on the street contain Fentanyl without the buyer knowing, making “just one pill” a life-or-death gamble.

👉 Protect yourself and your loved ones:
• Never take pills not prescribed to you.
• Talk to your teens about counterfeit drugs.
• Learn how to recognize the signs of overdose.

🍃 Serenity Recovery Centers is here to help. For confidential support, call (901) 521-1131 or visit serenityrecovery.org.
