This video unpacks the powerful and dangerous connection between methamphetamine and sex â a topic often missed in clinical conversations, treatment planning, and public health messaging.
đ Here's what you'll learn:
1. Why methamphetamine creates a neurobiological trap through dopamine and sexual reinforcement
2. The neuroscience behind Chemsex and how it hijacks desire, emotional memory, and reward circuits
3. How over time, meth use leads to anhedonia and impaired intimacyâeven as cravings intensify.
4. Why traditional treatment often fails if it ignores the sexual and emotional imprint of meth
5. What effective recovery looks like, from trauma-informed care to behavioural strategies
This is not just a drug problemâitâs a problem of emotional learning, memory, and connection.
đ Watch this if you're a clinician, educator, or simply curious about the deep links between addiction, sex, and neurobiology.
