Id be careful messing with dopamine. Its sounds great - lowers prolactin , heigtens libido , raises energy levels and more. However resorting to meds or even herbal remedies that increase dopamine seriously messes with the neurological "rewards system" you can find yourself needing to take them for good or else find yourself leading a miserable , lethargic , asexual , essentially monotone existance. As you can tell im not a big fan of messing with dopamine - to each his own but proceed with caution.
Thank you!
And thats more or less what my Endo was trying to say.
I´m ok, very content, life has been good to me. I´m just never "Happy".
Being with my last GF was a awakening experience.
She was happy for the slights little thing, a sweet Papaya in the morning, a bird resting outside our window, a beautiful sunset, staying overnight at a hotel.
The Sunset; she would truly soak it up, and feel the happiness/joy throughout every fibre of her body.
I could "see" the sunset, but "feel" absolutely nothing.
Pisses me off, and I told her and complimented her for it all the time.
I make a lot more $ than her, but I can´t buy what she has.
Hey, i have been prescribed modainil by the doc for day time sleepiness, still have not bought it coz its expensive as fuuu. Plus not many studies have been done on its side effects and its even not known how it works inside the body.
And also i think my dopamine is screwed possibly from heavy ecstasy use from a fwe years ago. I have tested this by smoking a pack of cigarettes a day for 2 months then quiting cold turkey, and not a single craving. Which is extremely strange.
Another thing that i have looked into, when in high school we tested for introversion or extroversion personalilty and mine was right in the middle. But i have read something about introvert being very sensitive to dopamine, still need to look into this more though.
