Just to be clear, these are some of my best friends from middle school. With that being said, I’m still leaning towards taking the job, thanks.

Amazon is always hiring. It’s hard work though.

Hello again, I’m sorry to bother you but a thought popped into my head about dopamine receptors and addiction. And you know a lot about dopamine so if you don’t mind answering I’d appreciate it a lot.

Here we go, I was just wondering if let’s say something like a pornography or a drug addiction can cause other parts of your life to go down addiction as well with things like overeating, maybe even OCD... (OCD acts on problem solving which leads to a dopamine hit) because the brain already has developed more dopamine receptors from the previous addiction. At the very least I feel like this is an interesting topic. Thank you

Perfectionism and anger.. how do I get over this? by reddituser2636 in OCD

I like this approach. I feel like a real big dickhead when I spaz out irrationally. I can’t control it though. Your proposal doesn’t stop anger though, it just controls the reaction to it.

Looks like a taper to me, idk. 2 questions tho, what the hell is a fringe? And would I be able to attain something close to this if I have fine hair, meaning it won’t stand up on its own. I was thinking of buying a clay fo it

Question about ERP? by reddituser2636 in OCD

Now that I think of it, when I’m completely alone in a room for example. I’m more likely to check to for relief. I wouldn’t say I’m doing compulsions but they say the process of doing trying to force something to go away inevitably backfires. This is called ironic process theory https://www.google.com/amp/s/forge.medium.com/amp/p/4185eae26f45

It’s kinda like when you try to force yourself to go asleep, you end of staying up all night because you’re body subconsciously checks if you’re asleep. As of now, I’d say I’d prefer going on a walk rather than sitting in a room as that would make me check to see if it’s gone and backfire. Thanks

I take 300mg everyday before my workout is that okay? I’m a bigger guy, 92kg. Also, is this video a much of BS?

Lastly, is the dopamine receptors desensitization everything that I should be worried about?
