- The fixation on Dopamine annoys me: detox, fast, addiction
- Dopamine is a neurotransmitter with a function, like all others. It evolved with us.
- It just evolved in different circumstances, a different environment
- (Lembke): We evolved to work for our rewards
- The problem isnt Dopamine, its our environment, our behavior. Tiktok makes us addicted. That everything is always available. Porn. Food. Spotify. Entertainment.
- It seems like this fixation on dopamine is a red herring
- Like saying depression is just a brain imbalance. That's true, but it usually has other, causal, reasons.
