title. I'm gonna try that shit.
 
Pretty sure it's like sitting still in a room with nothing to do for a long period of time. Currently I go mentally insane if I don't have internet or something to keep my mind entertained. I think it also affects my work ethic because I need quick dopamine all the time.

The way language is used on this forum just gets more and more autistic as time goes on.

Well using this site gives you dopamine so maybe not. I'm talking literally sitting in an empty room with no stimuli. Like solitary confinement.

I tried when I had some sleeping problems.

All it did was make me think of my oneitii and get erect.
 
I did it once. For 24 hours. No food. No water. No internet. No TV. No radio. No images. No books. Nothing just sitting there.

I remember after 24 hours the first sip of water tasted like sugar, it was so sweet, and the first thing I saw on the internet grabbed my attention so strongly, while usually I just open multiple tabs and switch between them.
 
INDRESDING

I'll try this
 
Does this count as a dopamine fast?

I probably 3 times. Went on a 1 week Buddhist silent retreat, in a Zen place. No internet usage. No/little entertainment No, to little talking. meditating for like 4 hours per day, aka staring at a wall or into the distance.
