Brendon has been using Xanax for a period of over six months. Alex, his friend, asks him to stop using the drug as it adversely
affects the body. Brendon listens to Alex and discontinues taking the drug. However, upon withdrawal, he experiences immense physical pain accompanied by increased craving for the drug. This is most likely due to __________. a. physical dependence.
b. decreased tolerance.
c. transitive inference.
d. mental instability.
I'm not 100% sure if this is the answer but it makes sense. The body is dependent on the drug to make it feel 'normal' So it would be physical dependence because obviously, the body is dependent on that drug. That's basically what withdrawals are.
Caffeine is usually not dangerous when used carefully. Depressants are a group of drugs that slow down the activity in the brain and body. and coffee helps you stay awake.
