Addictions: From Electronic to Pharmacuedical

Wireheading

EFFECT: Hardware device that will link right into a person's brain. Result is continual stimulation of that person's pleasure-center.
ADDICTIVE: VERY! Its usually a one time ride.
DISADVANTAGES: Once the person is wired in, then will no longer have any cares at all. Battery-pack usually lasts between 1-3 days. Since the addiction to the stimulation is so high, the addict usually dies of thirst before the battery runs down.

Braindance

EFFECT: The usage of Braindance chips or use via inter- face plugs will give the user the desired effect. This depends upon what type of chip/interface they use. The main 5 types are Experience Chips, Memory Chips, Envir- onment Chips, Virtual Reality and Visitor Reality.
Experience Chips are the most common. It is simular to a movie where the user is the star. It shuts off the current reality so the user only experiences what the chip is geared for.
Memory Chips gives the user a specific memory or set of them.
Environment Chips are still mostly in development, though in theory they will give the user's consciousness to be changed from reality to a programmed one. Does not alter their actions any, just what they perceive.
Virtual Realities are like the Experience Chips but are interactive.
Visitor Realities are like the Virtual Realities, but they are linked into the net. They will give the user the experience of VR in Reality, as they walk, talk, etc.
ADDICTIVE: Excessive use can alter their perceptions, giving the user the perception that the braindance is actually real.
DISADVANTAGES: Fairly expensive and since these chips will always give pleasure. Usage of these chips can lead to dependance.
