Why OCDs Develop Drinking and Gambling Habits?
Our Serotonin is produced in the deep REM sleep in the night. Therefore insomnia in the night is a leading condition in both OCD as well as in psychopathy. In the same way, not sleeping in the night shifts one more towards Cribphillic behavior and finally progressing towards towards OCD.
Serotonin is also a hormone that drives our satisfaction pathways. lack of Serotonin then pushes the brain towards the pursuit of pleasure and brain parts with more dopamine receptors(which are high in the limbic brain). Because dopamine is also addictive hormone, more and more dopamine synthesis increase the desire for dopamine.
Dopamine is addictive, and addiction gives dopamine to brain. Therefore Cribbing leads to desire for dopamine, which then slowly gets converted into an addiction.
