Serious Q : Are All Addictions Somehow Genetically Linked , Details Inside ?
Question by Dizz: Serious Q : Are all addictions somehow genetically linked , details inside ?
I know alcohol, drugs & things of a chemical nature are , but also are shopping , gambling , sex , eating ?
Is there a genetic link from our parents that could cause these other addictions that are not just chemical ?
Could you supply a link to prove this , please ?
Thank You & have a wonderful day . D 🙂
The link I need has to be about addictions like gambling , Sex , Shopping . Not substance addictions , please ?
Like when you transfer from a substance addiction to a computer addiction , or such .
Is there a genetic link to that ?
Thanks
