Yes. So I’ve never schmoked crack but my bio father was an addict. I’ll find myself during stressful times literally craving a drug I’ve never used. Like I know exactly how it feels somehow. So weird.

You talk about father to son and father to daughter, but have they looked at the correlation between mother and daughter too? We definitely need more research here, this is really important stuff to know about to help people with not taking unnecessary risks

Absent father to daughter…I didn’t know until it was too late that I was predisposed to alcoholism and addiction.

I was protected from Nicotine addiction by having parents who chain smoked in the car and made me never want to try a cigarette 😭

Both parents are alcoholics and my father was addicted to oxy. I’ve been alcohol free for over 5 years now.

Does it change after a generation or two if a son does not drink?

I used to and sometimes still do get what I call "ghost cravings" where I crave a substance I've never tried before could that be related? cause I have a hunch my dad was doing a few things in the 80s

That is true. There are five of us siblings, and all of them—except me—have some kind of substance abuse problem. Of course, I am also prone to addiction myself; my drug of choice is exercise—and no, that isn't a good thing, because my exercising is compulsive, meaning it is an addiction.

I’ve always been fascinated by this. My great-great grandfather was an alcoholic. His son (my great grandfather) was not, but his grandson (my grandfather) was. My dad is not, but my brother is and I don’t drink anymore because I simply cannot stop once I start.

do you think that the increase in offspring stimulant use could be due to the fact that alcohol is a depressant, which would somehow lead to a change in dopamine levels in the offspring, to the point where they seek out stimulants to somehow balance that out? I’d love to know the science behind it

I knew I was predisposed with my dad being a former alcoholic and being neurodivergent, alas indeed still fell into the trap of it. 4 years sober now though
