A list of all the things that fry your dopamine receptors

[Catawampus]

1. Immediate availability of the best tasting foods and drinks in the world. Back in paleo times Chad would go days without eating anything good and would only drink water. Can you imagine his dopamine after killing a deer for his Stacy wife and children?
2. Immediate and constant access to the most incredible sounding music. Again, several hundred years ago the only music you would get is a minstrel who might wander through your area every few months and also plain singing without instrumentals. Definitely nothing on our level of 24/7 music access today.
3. Video games. These are absolutely insane dopamine fryers, it is a known fact they give incredible dopamine and adrenaline rushes. There was of course nothing like this in ancient times. If Chad wanted this rush, he would have to pay for it by risking life and limb in battle.
4. Porn. Need I say more? Immediate availability of countless women showing you everything they have and then some, doing the most depraved and shameful acts with the click of a mouse. Sex isnt what it used to be. It used to be like the epitome of dopamine sources. A real treat to see the opposite sex naked. Now we are bombarded with it since the day we are born. The most primitive driving force in nature has lost its mystery for us.
5. The internet. This of course encompasses this site and a lot of the above but I sincerely believe that this has been the biggest driving factor in the downfall of modern man. Instant entertainment, 24/7. If you say you are "bored" in this age of technology you should unironically rope right now. Billions of hours of videos to watch. We can experience everything now. There is no more wonder or mystery left in the world. We are a doomed race.

I've done nothing but sleep and scroll through youtube vids and forums for the last 30 hours
I watch youtube vids on 2x speed and dont finish most of them because my attention span is obliterated
I might actually take up playing video games again because it's the only thing I can do that maintains my focus
I feel like browsing internet fuels my ADD to a new level

an emp bomb needs to airburst across all major cities for our dopamines to even have a chance of healing

I'll never be able to catch up with the skills of people who have been playing their whole lives. At least I can enjoy single player games.

Just intentionally deprive yourself and make your life worse and less comfortable so you appreciate the good things more theory.

Hmm...

Nah...I'm good.

There's some truth to it. I took a social media and porn "detox" for 8 days and felt better.

The music and food examples sound like straight bullshit though. Those are good copes to have that don't destroy your life.
