  • As a musician who experiences large amounts of dopamine while performing, I can say it’s almost like the better a show the more real and painful reality feels the next day

    • Got goosebumps from this . This was my downfall as an aspiring musician . I wouldn’t use before performing , I would naturally be high on nerves and then ride that high through the show and the night . The next day , when the crowd was gone and I was back at my shitty day job the only thing I could do to operate was cocaine and “dreaming” about how I was meant for more

Or sometimes you face big victories with music, but its almost always that the next moment after that is feeling like you're not good enough. Kinda like riding constant never-ending up and down cycles.

World record, cheering crowd, and years of training culminating in one moment? Then he talks about how low he was the very next day. Like beyond depressed. This makes more sense now.

    • I would say that depends on your baseline of natural dopamine levels. I have ADHD (low dopamine levels) and I take low doses of Vyvance (Dexamphetamine) and I never have to increase the dosage. I just skip 3-5 days occasionally to get my sleeping pattern to normal again and I don't even crash when doing so. My guess is that since I don't actually push my dopamine levels too much over "normal" there is no strong downregulation of the dopamine receptors.

  • Basically what from I understand is that after every amount of dopamine, a phase of "feeling down" comes along but the trick is not to try to hype yourself up again by finding more dopamine but instead just let it reset on its own and just push trough stuff with discipline that usually goes very well when you have dopamine, during the reset that is

  • These molecules are designed to create activation states in the body. And dopamine is the molecule of motivation, pursuit + desire. BOOM! You know when you hear something again and it sounds really fresh? Motivation. Pursuit. Desire. And when our dopamine dips, it's no wonder people feel isolated, sad and pained after a peak experience. Whether that's feeling low with post-music festival blues, or like how Nicole Kidman said she felt super lonely after winning an academy award. The main message I am taking away is: Chill after a dopamine hit, in order to let the body reset - more balance and modulation. And to notice what my state is like before, during and after behaviour, and notice when I am chasing more dopamine. Be a scientist to myself! Great clip, thanks!

    • I imagine that you, and other people who do this sort of 'bullet point summary' mean well, but I wish you'd stop for a moment to really reflect on the consequences of your actions. Giving people a summary of a video that they haven't watched will lead many of them to not watch the video. This is a negative outcome for a few reasons: 1. It robs the content creator of 'watch time', which the KZhead algorithm uses to determine how useful, popular, etc., a video is. 2. It robs the potential viewer of an opportunity to practice attention/focus, which serves to reinforce the 'quick hit' mindset that just wants it's dopamine for learning a new thing with little to no effort, thereby contributing to their deficit in attention. 3. It inspires other people to do as you do -- some even resorting to using AI to summarize a video -- for the purpose of getting attention via 'Likes' on their comment and also via comments in reply such as "MVP" and "Thanks for saving me the time", etc. Now, to those who will jump in to say how useful such a bullet-point list is to them, I say: *create your own list, and keep it private.* This gives you some exercise in attention, and it also allows you to absorb the points by considering them within the context that the video presents them. Everyone is different, and context is super, super important in helping us to understand and to organize learning in ways that are specific to each individual. So... do your own note-taking, and don't share it as a public comment. I'm giving you the benefit of doubt that you're sincerely wanting to be helpful, rather than just an attention /like hound. So with that said, please: *stop making bullet-point comments.* You will be most helpful to the most amount of people by following this suggestion -- even if they disagree because they'd rather someone else do the listening for them. And, for those who want to point out that they have some sort of learning deficit, and that such bullet-point lists are truly helpful to them: work through it with a caring family member or friend. Your struggle to learn, remember, organize, understand, etc., does not excuse robbing the content creator of their due 'watch time'. This should be a 'win-win' outcome for both the creator and the viewer, and that only happens when people exchange their time (watch-time) for information.

  • Thanks you for sharing this podcast! I like the idea that dopamine is a renewable but not infinite resource. It helps me be more realistic when following through with goals and being patient with myself during the times that I do have to push through and just get it done. It is a reminder that the lower level of dopamine release is a temporary feeling. And we dont need to chase that rush and mess up our brains in the process by overloading ourselves with dopamine (in the forms of addiction). It is like chasing the first high of falling in love or drug addiction.

When knowledge is presented in a way that the recipient takes in and can see the common sense of it, it's a good day. To learn how something is constructed, its uses, how it works as well as how and why it deconstructs and reconstructs are key to learning how to modulate and the, " whys " and effects behind disregulation.

Exercise your discipline and only ONE of those dangerous activities a day. Focus on the length of time with your usage and reduce it. Slowly, you'll be able to do ALL of those things, but in a much more reasonable way to manage your baseline.

  • enjoyed this. As someone coming out of a Long "Cannabis Coma" (45yrs.) a lot of areas were hit. The Porn plague was even longer (12 to 63!) Heineken's and Stoli were also in the Land of NUMB. Well with these cunning distractions, eating properly was non-existent (those Fast "food" places were at least avoided!) Anyways the Clouds been Lifted and it's been LONG overdue. Even had to delete Tik-Tok, because having an Addictive personality (Obviously) I felt the "need" to respond to a third of the content. Which was Nuts but fit the dope-a- mean Hunger. So needless to say this was a Good subject manner for me and I immediately subscribed with the hope that, if the other episodes are half as good, then I'm in a helpful zone. Thanks!

  • I've never liked something controlling me and my decisions, so as soon as i feel a draw towards a "need" for something, i immediately cut it off.. so caffeine or addictive substances have never been a thing for me. I just have to find something enjoyable and challenging in order to be motivated to pursue it. Whether that's really digging into a topic to write a book about, because it's so darn cool to share with others and then i get to master my knowledge about that topic... or whether it's exercise by doing something physically challenging that can also engage my creativity, like dance and aerial arts!

I used to think like that and didn't use coffee for decades. I do now though. I'm far from being an "addict" but it slowly creeps on you. It started for me before long road cycling rides, the during them also (they often last 3-5 hours), then before weight training, etc. I found coffee doesn't help me at all for mental focus, but for physical activities it does. But I had your exact philosophy so keep it as long as you can, forever if possible ;)

  • Skydiving, I had a interesting one off experience of this dopamine expenditure when I was in my twenties. I had done a few jumps one day and then that night I caught up with some friends for a little party at their new property. We all had some ecctasy which was not too usual as we occasionally enjoyed such things. It had zero effect on me while everyone else, that hadn't jumped out of a plane that day, experienced the usual effect of the drug. I just got tired as I normally would as the night wore on and went to sleep while my friends kept dancing and having a great time. Interesting.

The most likely cause is my brain had already released a large amount of dopamine, serotonin and norepinephrine and therefore and no more in reserve to release. My body needed more time to build up the molecules again and that's why the drug didn't so anything as that's how it has its effect by triggering the release of these chemicals from their storage sites.

Sometimes you can't see a way out of a situation now, from yours perspective, but someone from outside can, and they might help you see it too. If after doing this you still don't change your mind, I only ask you to search for an answer to the big questions of life before going. Because these answers can define what will happen to you in the afterlife. I personally think there are solid evidences that God exists and came to the word as Jesus to reconcile humanity with him. And I think you should investigate this matter further. Because if this is actually true, there is really a God out there that loves you and want to have a relationship with you. And this relationship may change the way you see the world and your life. And it maybe may change your mind about taking your own life, or at least give you a reassurance about your destiny in the afterlife. God bless you.

Idk just my observations being an extremely anxious person, It would take me so much effort to get anything done and when it got done, I would feel absolutely shit when it wasn't upto my unrealistic expectations and also I would loathe the process.

  • Honestly as someone who did a lot of drugs over twenty years you don’t need a university degree to understand about going down further than you went up , once you first start using your base line not only alters but soon can disappear , having now been clean for nearly a decade I can say things are relatively normal again , and I a much happier , thanks for video and your continued insight

  • This makes sense… yesterday I was feeling way off and unmotivated. The only thing I can seem to track the cause to was the day before, I drank coffee for the first time in weeks. Perhaps my dopamine shot up and crashed. Makes perfect sense tbh

    • you can try to use drinks with less caffeine if you don't really need to be super alert and then it won't do that anymore. this is kind of why everyone keeps drinking coffee each day, even though they shouldn't need it

    • @@madlenj.4644 i shall give you a tip. try green tea instead of just any caffeinated teas. I have the teas for when I don't need a huge spike of energy, and then the coffee for when I do need it. And you just rotate them as needed. The green tea tho you don't need sugar for it bc it's not bitter, unlike the dark teas or the coffee, so you can just not add sweatner and you don't crash afterwards.

  • Some people need to dopamine fast because they flooded their brain over many days with so much dopamine that there brain reduces the over used receptors *somehow* and when the last receptor no longer receives anything it regrows them *somehow* because they are needed just not every millisecond of every day; I myself once came but I didn't receive any good feelings and just felt cold and depressed so I quit as long as I could and could feel again in only a few days but that was a long time ago and I still haven't succeeded in quitting but I really believe there is some truth to learn from leaving p°rn behind, some happiness to pursue beyond the veil of depression. And as I leave the modern needle behind I hope I can someday want something greater than any modern man can want. May God be with you, Always.

  • Once again, science validates ancient wisdom; chasing pleasure does not lead to happiness. On "infinite but renewable resource" : I read _The Power of Full Engagement" by Loeher & Schwartz, an executive coach and a sports performance scientist. The key insight I got from it is that "daily willpower is a limited resource." I ran into so many people who denied the reality of what I felt; that concept explained it. This discussion underpins it; it gives a biochemical basis for a hard limit (not a universal one, 'your mileage may vary') on daily motivation.
