what it does is it down regulates the receptor that means that there's less likelihood that any given molecule will find a receptor to bind to thereby reducing the risk for cell death

what does this mean in human terms you get a hit you get a rush receptors go down next time you need a bigger hit to get the same rush and the receptors go down and then a bigger hit and a bigger hit and a bigger hit until finally you get a huge hit to get nothing that's called tolerance and then when the neurons actually do start to die because chronic stimulation causes neuronal cell death that's called addiction
