Dopamine.

Dopamine motivates us to do just about everything.


Have a cigarette - Dopamine.

Orgasm - Dopamine.

High-calorie, high- fat food - dopamine.



Anything to stimulate the pleasure/reward center - dopamine



Dopamine drives us in EVERY primalistic and refined pleasure.


If it wasn't for prolactin we would all be dead by the time we hit puberty.




WE should worship prolactin instead of worshiping the gods of domamine...


That's what's REALLY going on.

EVERY post is a surge of dopamine.


A feel-good moment that lingers, especially when other members and viewers are unable to counter or attack your statements. Feels good.

I find prolactin causes more creative thought, but both dopamine and prolactin are equal in suffering.

Never thought about it in that way before but I,...I think you're right.


Wow. You have unexpectedly turned this site upside-down. In a very good way.
