Is it possible to destroy your dopamine levels?

I've been gambling for years, seeing prostitutes and frequently use the interent all day. I think my dopamine is ****ig destroyed.

i say this because

a) when i drink coffee i seem to FEEL really good like really motivated, happier etc. i don't think that's normal is it?

b) i did no fap and no gamble for a month nad still felt nothing / no better

but then again its not like iv'e done hard drugs for years?


i think my dopamine is destroyed becaus
- no motivation to do well in life
- cbf all the time
- dont seem to gain any pleasure from doing normal day to day activities

i remember reading somewhere that when you expose yourself to that type of chit you dampen your response to dopamine by turning off receptors. undoing the desensitization you did to yourself will take atleast a year

Yes stoned fapping for hours on end, everyday for years straight. Fapped my cawk into oblivion/skyrim and absolutely fried my dopamine receptors. It took 1.5 years of jelqing/PE training to restore my cawk to its former glory and ascend. Relapsed though and am currently indulging in daily stoned fapping for hours on end once again.

Yes its true. Long term drug abuse does it. Anti-depression meds do it. High level competitive athletes and the high speed operator types in the military do it when they get career ending injuries. They tend to slip into depressions when they cant find something that gives them the same adrenaline/dopamine rush that they use to get. The smart ones find a way to get new thrills

I remember D.A.R.E. telling us that if you do a lot of drugs you will never be happy again.

Which is BS...

you must have to be swimming in E to do that
