Copied thread
BEFORE YOU READ: Most important thing is to drop the notion that a ''cope'' is bad. Is naturally good to cope. I get it, you want to experience life NATURALLY, and get in relationships like normal people, without any coping, but realise that this dystopian society and women forces all these things upon more and more young men. So it's good to cope. This enviroment forces you to do all these things.
Also, all the ''spreading your genes'' shit is all for the ego. The only thing that your brain cares about is getting these 3 important hormones. ''Spreading your seed'' has never been proven to release feelings of happiness. Only good for your person, the imagined ego.
So, like you reading this, most of the time I don't leave the house, but I still manage to be happy. I found the best copes that you will ever find by researching why people want relationships, get in relationships, have sex etc. It's about dopamine, seratonin & oxytocin. Nothing more.
I have made the decision to not even bother with women anymore. I don't approach them, see modern women what they are, which is essentialy devil incarnate. Manipulation, humiliating others, big ego, basically all the traits of the devil himself, you can find in the modern egotistical woman. They don't have any ability to pair bond like women of previous generations, treat people like shit, there is no reason to bother or trying to ascend. If you're trying to find a loving girlfriend, which is what I wanted and the vast majority of incels want, it really is over, and it will get worse, believe me. But that doesn't mean life is over, as you'll read here
How do you get these fixes of these hormones without having to deal with demon toilets? That is why all the ''vidya'' and other well known copes are the worst copes. They only distract you for a time, leaving you miserable becouse your body still craves those biologically hardwired hormones, that you're supposed to get from women. But your body doesn't know that we live in this world were females turned into the Devil himself. So how do you get these hormonal fixes?
Research:
Dopamine is released as a response to anticipation of a reward (1). It is responsible for motivation and drive (2). It also helps with attention, cognitive function, creativity, learning, sleep and mood (3).
Introverts (99% of incels) avoid too much stimulation as it could make them anxious or overwhelmed (mentalcels). But if you’re an introvert and you learn to manage your anxiety with practice, you can bring on your extrovert side in a social situation by boosting your dopamine levels (4).
Dopamine is important for romantic love and maternal behavior (what Incels lack). Heck, it can even lower systematic inflammation in your body and increase bone strength (7, 8).
Dopamine plays more functions but by now, you’ve got a pretty good idea of how powerful and important it is. But it comes with its downsides if you have excess levels of dopamine.
Excess dopamine may make you apathetic and give you poor social functioning (Do NOFAP ffs). Seeking too much dopamine from an activity leads to addictive behavior such as drugs, porn, food, social media and video games (no excuse, it will make your life better). It can make you more aggressive or competitive and less communal or nurturing (no one cares).
On the flip side, too little dopamine may lead to low motivation, depression, fatigue, attention or memory problems (what 99% of incels have).
Dopamine is the reason we fail to keep the new year resolution. At the time of setting the goal, our dopamine is high, and we feel motivated. But soon, our dopamine levels drop off as we seek novelty and achievement. If we fail to make good progress, we set new goals to get high dopamine and the cycle repeats.
To optimize your dopamine levels, you must first identify your sources of dopamine and seek healthy levels for optimal mood and performance.
You want to diversify the source of your dopamine and make sure you get it from healthy sources.
To increase dopamine levels:
Check items off of your daily success checklist.
Break down tasks into smaller to-dos.
Set healthy rewards for healthy behaviors.
Declutter or delete.
Run experiments in your work or do self-experimentation to experience novelty.
Challenge yourself by getting out of your comfort zone and accomplish great things.
Learn or do something new.
Create something.
Exercise (15).
Do yoga (16).
Meditate (17).
Spend time outside in sunlight or bright light and smell fresh cut grass (18, 19).
Get a massage (20). Not an option for incels, they don't get massages
Keep inflammation low (by avoiding toxins in the air, water, fast food, etc.) (21).
Listen to pleasurable music (22).
Get human touch or tickle (23, 24). Not an option for incels, they don't get human touch
Consume tyrosine-rich foods (meat, fish, avocados, cheese, yogurt, beans, nuts, pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds, soy, and especially bananas), omega 3s (EPA/DHA from fish or algae), green tea, caffeine, resveratrol (red grapes, red wine, peanuts, cocoa, blueberries), folate (vitamin B9 from green leafy vegetables, chickpeas, beans, lentils, avocados, beets, broccoli), curcumin, probiotic (Lactobacillus Plantarum from fermented plants such as sauerkraut, pickles, kimchi), magnesium and iron (cocoa, nuts, seeds, legumes, bananas, leafy greens, avocados) (25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35).
2. Serotonin
Serotonin makes you happy. Anti-depressants focus on increasing serotonin production to help people come out of depression. Not only does serotonin helps with depression (36), it improves your mood during social interactions by decreasing aggression and increasing dominance (37). Who doesn’t want that?
Serotonin plays a role in heart function (38), improves gut-brain connection (39), controls body temperature, blood pressure, and breathing (40, 41). It can also help with food cravings (salt and carbohydrates) and anorexia (eating disorder) (42, 43, 44). The combination of dopamine and serotonin can improve Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) (45).
Lack of serotonin may impair immunity functions in the body (46) and disrupt biological clock (47). It could cause migraines (48) and impair memory (49). It may also lead to anxiety disorder, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), panic disorder, social phobia and aggression (50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55).
Getting your brain to produce serotonin is as easy as imagining. Your brain doesn’t know the difference between reality and imagination.
To increase serotonin levels:
Express gratitude. Don’t just write or think about what you’re grateful for. Express it by feeling, saying, sharing and thanking.
Watch cute puppies, kittens or other baby animals (whatever you’re into).
Think positive thoughts (56). Remember a memory of achievement or happiness. Visualize your dreams. Look at pictures or videos to help your brain remember or imagine better.
IMPORTANT - Exercise (57).
IMPORTANT - Meditate (58).
Connect with positive people (59). Not an option for incels, we don't have connections
Walk in nature, spend time in bright sunlight and get vitamin D (60, 61, 62).
Get good sleep (63).
Get a massage (64).
Listen to pleasant music (65).
Consume tryptophan-rich foods (eggs, meats, fish, yogurt, cheese, sesame seeds, cashew, walnuts, oats, quinoa, brown rice, beans, legumes, bananas, potatoes), omega 3s (EPA/DHA from fish or algae), curcumin, vitamin B6 rich foods (meat, fish, nuts, seeds, chickpeas, beans, avocados, bananas, spinach) and carbohydrates (pro tip: take it from good sources) (66, 67, 68, 69, 70).
3. Oxytocin (Hardest but most worthwile part)
Oxytocin plays a major role in social bonding. It increases trust (when there is no reason to distrust), generosity, empathy, and willingness to share your stories and emotions (71, 72, 73, 74).
Oxytocin inhibits the fear response and decreases bad memories (75). It increases romantic attachment and feelings of contentment, calmness, and security (76). It reduces stress response, decreases inflammation and promotes wound healing (77, 78). How great is that?
To increase oxytocin levels:
Give a gift or do random acts of kindness. If you moneymaxx, donate or something
Help, support, encourage, inspire, motivate or compliment others. Incels don't have any conversation irl, so switch this online, your lizard brain literally cant tell the difference
Listen to others for deep connection. If your mother is the only one you talk to, do this
Express your emotions (smile, laugh, cry). Stoicism ftw
Nurse a baby.
Pet a dog (79). Get a dog if you don't have one
IMPORTANT - Exercise (80).
Do yoga (81).
Have positive social interactions (82). If your mother is the only one you talk to, do this
Smell Jasmine or Lavender (83, 84).
Take warm showers or get in warm temperature (85).
Get a massage (86).
Listen to soothing music (87).
Do kindness meditation (88). MOST IMPORTANT ONE. SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN, BEST COPE, WILL TRANSFORM YOUR LIFE. But you have to be open to doing this. If you're not, remember, that you will be unhappy anyways, so might as well practice this. Search ''loving kindness meditation'' on youtube. Inb4 ''love is for betas, kindness makes me pushover'' drop the damn ego, and do what is scientifically proven to make you happier already.
Hug, cuddle, touch, kiss, love, have sex (89). JFL
Consume caffeine, magnesium (cocoa, nuts, seeds, legumes, bananas, leafy greens, avocados), sage, and fenugreek (90, 91, 92).

Endorphins are released during exercise, pain, stress, sex, eating or drinking. They are natural painkillers and stress reliever (93, 94). Impressive, huh?
To increase endorphins levels:

Using This Information…
That’s a lot of information to take in. My goal is not to give you straight facts or throw a bunch of studies at you. I want you to put this information into action.
Instead of relying on your brain to remember the information, here’s what to do next:
Save this article.
When you feel low motivation, get your dopamine dose (from the ways mentioned above).
When you want to change your mood, get your serotonin dose.
When you feel lonely or self-absorbed (what most incels feel), get your oxytocin dose. without chasing some damn std ridden foids on tinder or whatever
When you want to take a break to experience euphoric feelings, get your endorphins dose.
Of course, you don’t have to wait for the cues to get your dosage. Make sure you regularly do the most impactful actions that produce “feel good” neurochemicals.
The key actions are:
Exercising.
Meditating.
Listening to music.
Getting good sleep.
Taking hot and cold showers.
Having positive social interactions.
Spending time in nature and getting sunlight.
Getting a massage and doing yoga. (I use a foam roller for self-massage)
Eating a high-quality diet with adequate protein, healthy fats, and micronutrients (especially magnesium)
