St_Kevin 08/06/20 7:21:33 PM #1:	It's basically disconnecting yourself from any easy Dopamine fixes for a day to reset your dope receptors. This includes: No Recreational drugs No Masturbation No screen time No social media No junk foods No gambling No Video Games Putting yourself into discomfort or neutral state I think I am going to put myself into this state one day a month. --- [:D] That Canadian Emperor Guy King of ** posts and memes [:)]** <cite>St_Kevin posted [p:943079002] in Have any o...

ChaosAzeroth 08/06/20 7:49:29 PM #4:	That's beyond discomfort for me. With nothing to distract me I'm super aware of my chronic pain and everything going on around me (like every tiny sound is so loud) which spikes my anxiety. So long story short, y'all can do what you want but I'd rather die thanks. I haven't had enough books to cover lack of video games in years. (Shitty step dad threw away a ton of my stuff and moving has wiped out what stock I got back up.) At that point I'd basically eventually stress pass out and sleep the rest of the day due to being bombarded by pain and axniety. <cite>ChaosAzeroth posted [p:943080015] in Have any o...

JigsawTDC 08/06/20 8:06:36 PM #6:	I lived in a developing country where I did without most of this for 9 months, so I've definitely done a bit of "dopamine fasting" but it's not something I feel the need to practice regularly. I generally try to start and end my day with some meditation and try to maintain a generally healthy lifestyle, so while I limit pretty much all of these things, I rarely deprive myself for a full day. <cite>JigsawTDC posted [p:943080681] in Have any o...

ParanoidObsessive 08/07/20 6:08:17 PM #27:	Revelation34 posted... Still not 100% happiness. Well maybe the uncontacted tribal people are 100% happy. Happiness is a subjective sociological construct that itself makes pure happiness impossible. The pursuit of happiness itself causes happiness to elude, partly because no one can actually agree on what "happiness" actually is.
