Mental and behavioural disorders due to use of cocaine - what does this mean

What happens during the disease - mental and behavioural disorders due to use of cocaine
The pathogenesis of mental and behavioural disorders due to the use of cocaine is believed to be a result of the drug's ability to disrupt the normal functioning of the brain. when cocaine is consumed, it causes a surge of dopamine to be released into the brain, leading to an intense feeling of pleasure. over time, this can lead to changes in the brain's reward pathways, leading to an increased tolerance and a need for larger doses to achieve the same effects. this can also lead to an increased risk of addiction, as well as mood swings, depression, and anxiety.
