		<description><![CDATA[Brain neurotransmitters control our moods, memory, thinking, and behavior. When our brains have enough of the nutrients necessary to manufacture all of the neurotransmitters we need, we're able to feel relaxed and alert, focused and free of fear, happy and pain-free.  When we're unable to produce these chemical messengers in the necessary quantities, our moods, intellectual capability and behavior tend to deteriorate and this can lead to drug abuse.

		<description><![CDATA[Dr. Daniel Amen states that January is the busiest month in mental health treatment nationwide. For many, the holidays bring a lot of unpleasant memories, unrealized expectations and stress. It is easy to get into the comfort zone of overeating, isolating and abusing alcohol and drugs. Unfortunately, the temporary relief provided by indulging wears off fast and leaves you feeling worse.  And, the damage you do to your brain sets the stage for repeated failure.
