    Dopamine. This explains why I am 15 years sober and I luv climbing mountains skiing steep runs and just doing things that give me “a hit”. Now it’s just healthy ones🤣

      @DriveByDoGooders Рік тому +7

      She DID simplify it. She's a neuroscientist talking to us lay people. It's so much more complicated than the way she's stating it so I think she did a terrific job.

      it is a disease if the brain has undergone a great amount of drastic change in the overall brain structure which can make it Almost impossible to resist urges/relapse depending on the context

      There is a synchronous subconscious pain for every pleasure, find it and you will be free.

      It's an illness but disease in a conventional sense seems unlikely. I agree with her gremlins ideas. Dopamine is what I seek and constantly need more whatever due to my tolerance. I needed alcohol food mostly and of course other behavioral routes. Doesn't seen that hard to understand.
