<blockquote class="definition">A '''Behavioural Attachment''' (a.k.a. Behavioural Addiction)  is an [[Dopamine Attachment]] to a to behaviours. Behavioural addictions include things like sex, exercise, gambling, gaming, binge eating, cutting, etc.  All of these activities release “feel good” chemicals (i.e., opiates) in the brain,  like oxytocin. As with [[Substance Attachments]], any behaviour that reduces pain, offers release, and triggers the release of the endogenous opiates can easily become a [[Toxic Attachment]], when accompanied by a [[Dopamine Hit]]. </blockquote>
