My best dopamine hits are when I finish a project, get in a good workout (whether cycling or strength training, even on bad days where I don't feel like it or don't feel like I have the energy to). My worst dopamine hits are reaching for a beer or a glass of wine when I finish a project or chore at home or reaching for a cigarette (I know, need to just quit) after a hard workout or ride. But am learning (again) to do better and be better. Much thanks.
My cocaine use tale, in 81 I spent my entire paycheck one evening..having to borrow 20 dollars to buy gas just to make it home.The next day I experienced the Huge Drop the Dr. described I totally experienced the logic in suicide feeling the worst I remember ever feeling. The insanity of trying to re-experience that first rush...but Never achieving it. I havent done any since.
I hate the depression that comes after binging. I feel decent during the binge, but when I get to the end, I dread what I am about to experience, but it never stops me from getting more. Must be trying to numb myself because I am depressed from losing a great lifestyle that I used to have. Basically I feel sorry for myself and I wish it wasn’t so.
Thank you very much Professor Huberman for this video. The truth is that the healthy management of dopamines in our body is a compendium of enormous relevance for life. Best regards from Chile!
I am extremely bored and I use drugs to escape depression, but now it’s even harder because the only thing that gives me pleasure is the drug. I think the boring environment plays a significant role in people that use drugs. I don’t know what to do with myself because I am trying to avoid using again, but nothing seems to be inspiring me. I just stay in bed all day because I am so bored and I know that makes me even more infected with boredom and anger, but it’s like I can’t change it.
I think it would be very beneficial if you did an episode deep diving on the science behind ibogaine. It's incredible what it's done for people with severe addictions and ptsd. And the potential for safer microdoses of it is also very interesting although the science so far as been limited.
The real question is how we can heal the brain from years of heavy artificial dopamine hits. I've been away from addiction for 3 months and still have symptoms
Years of addiction is going to take a long long time to fully heal and even then you will probably always have some symptoms. That's just how it goes sadly. You just get better at managing things that trigger you. It's not going to just go away in a couple months, you have to work at replacing the bad habits with good ones
It almost feel impossible especially during that low. You're just looking for that peak over and over again like you said. The highs are high and the lows are so extremely low. It basically changes everything in your head to just want more and more to avoid the withdrawal symptoms.
I have 9 years clean and struggled with opioid use for years, amongst other drugs as well. I am 33 years old and still have anxiety and struggle with low dopamine levels (it’s a guess). I wish there was a brain scan that could show what we are deficient in. I take Lexapro, eat relatively healthy, exercise regularly, go to NA, and yet I struggle with time management, motivation, doing my job, and prioritizing tasks.
Its good you can call those your problems now. Many people struggle with what you listed, in recovery and not. What helps me a bunch is a to-do app, called todoist, once you get the hang of it trust me its like a weight lifted knowing that all your responsibilities are laid out for you, with reminders set, and you dont need to carry so many things in your mind
Very interesting. Concerns too patient suffering from Parkinson 's classified diseases and the drugs used in this case. It clearly appears that in this case nutrition is as much important as drug. Congrats and cheers from France !
Obviously, TikTok, Facebook, etc., are using dopamine peaks, but I don't feel a craving for it. Maybe some do, but in my case, I simply stumble upon it and get hooked. Does it disrupt this natural system if there is no comparison between craving and experience? Does the drop below baseline get bigger or smaller? I'd really like to know what Dr Huberman is thinking about this.
Excellent... and so i guess this is what makes sugar addictive. I remember Layne Norton scoffing at people that were saying it was addictive but given this... like so so so so so many other addictive things... the substance itself might not be addictive in itself.. BUT the dopamine hit people get become addictive.... So when someone says sugar is not addictive.. well neither is phone scrolling or social media or cocaine. Guess we have to be pragmatic and say.. yes - sugar is addictive like social media and cocaine and phone scrolling.
Does caffeine help or hinder the recovery process? I'm currently in recovery, experiencing anhedonia. No pleasure from anything which sucks. A cup of black coffee gives me a little boost and helps me get some work done and get through the day. However, I don't want to disrupt/extend the recovery process. Any advice from those of you that have been through this would be appreciated.
I think caffeine can help, while not being overly damaging. It gives you a boost. Admittedly it dehydrates you and has other not so great side effects, but I don't believe it has a significant effect either way regarding addiction recovery from say porn or coke.
Moderate caffeine intake is probably the most correct dopamine inducing drug there is for now in our world. It helps us give the energy we need to be productive without giving us any damaging side effects in the long run. Compare to any other dopamine inducing in this world, nothing even comes close how low risk and high reward it can be.
Would love to learn more about iboga/ibogaine’s effects on the dopamine system in relation to addiction and ptsd. An interview with Dr. Deborah Mash about ibogaine and the brain would be sick!
I second this. This would be an amazing episode and Andrew Huberman has the potential to bring so much more awareness to it. I managed to get completely sober from daily all day ketamine use. I also use to also do cocaine. I was prescribed adderall, klonopin and vaped nicotine daily. And took pain meds from time to time for severe K Cramps caused by my ketamine abuse. Iboga saved my life and I am forever grateful for it. More people need to know about it.
As a recovered alcoholic (I've been clear for 2.5 years), I can only confirm all of this is true. There are plenty of healthy ways to maintain normal dopamine levels, avoid turning to quick solutions like substances.
my first real big dopamine rush was in high school when a friend gave me a tiny little plastic tube to suck on that had nicotine in it, never since that moment have i ever had a nicotine buzz quite like it.
We have our being in God. We have many feelings and thoughts and maybe certain thoughts and feelings make us feel sheltered or comfortable even as we watch our muscle waste away from laying around. Perhaps intrigue is a sweet distraction from our fears and concerns that becomes a crutch. Perhaps fear is a just excuse to avoid it. Perhaps frustration is a valid reason to give up. Maybe we should try not because we’re told how but because we know we should, maybe it will hurt and be messy but it’s worth it for more.
I know it’s hard to stop, but one day you will overcome the addiction of reading comments after watching a video. I know you are reading this one too 😂😂😂
That video triggers extremely, if u had an coca adic. Im imagine some addict who has memories of his pipe (and/or) hits. And than that talk about the high intense dopamine rush. That could give the memories that feeling back which maybe was forgotten or ignored. I am appreciate A Hubermans explanation and his podcas generally, but his description of cocain dopamine causes, are very imaginable and may leading back into those memories, because u want to remember "just" the effect (in a scientific way) but with bad luck this purely scientific curiosity comes with more feelings, more memory and leaves the Science pathway. But you can come back I just wanted to mention that.
Would using the addiction of choice prior to engaging in a behavior that promotes limbic friction, prime those neural pathways to receive the adjacent prolactin increase, and therefore the significant dopamine increase that follows? Staving off additional cravings for the addicted behavior?
I've tried cocaïne several times, but it really didn't do much for me. I didn't get more energy, all what happened is that i didn't want to engage in contact with others. I find speed way more addictive as it helps me to work more and harder and makes me more talkative.
How does the dopamine high from illegal drugs compare to comfort foods (eg sugar)? Just in general terms. For instance 10 times more powerful (or more). I’m trying to have an illustration to help non-addicts to understand the addictive properties that drugs hold, building empathy.
What you’re asking can’t really be answered, as it is too much a case of apples to oranges, but quantifiable approaches you could take are dependency rates, or brain blood flow or neurotransmitter concentrations under fMRI or PT scans, respectively, in brain regions correlated with pleasure responses and dopaminergic activity. We generally have dependency rates for various addictive drugs like heroin or meth, but we don’t exactly have that for sugar or junk foods. The only way to estimate that via proxy would be to look at obesity rates, as we can reasonably say that anyone at the level of true medically defined obesity (BMI over 30 and no appreciable amounts of muscle mass) has an addiction to food. That would technically be about 42% of Americans. Heroin, for reference, has a dependency rate of about 1 in 4. So, it stands by that reasoning that 2/5 Americans who try junk food will become “addicted”, and 1/4 people who take heroin will become “addicted”. So, if anything, maybe the heroin addicts should have sympathy for Americans with obesity. Edit: Some research puts “true” food addiction at 5-10%. I don’t buy that given America’s obesity rates, but if that were the metric you were looking at, it would stand to reason that heroin is between 2.5-5x more addictive than junk foods.
If you're looking for answers after addiction for how to.heal/time expectations, this video doesn't focus on that. In case you need to save 7 min of your time.
Oh lawwd i did this with calories too🙈 So i have to find a way to stop behaving like a rat with a smack drip with this de-vice i keep picking up and get back to harnessing joy from delayed gratification and effort Graçias Senor
Hube might not be who you think he is. In fact, I have reason to believe Huberman is a viral alien entity. Think about it: If you live your life fully according to the Huberman doctrine, and that includes all the supplements, exercise routines, sunlight in your retina, cold plunges, sauna, etc. etc., then you basically get to a point where the molecular composition of your body is being finely tuned to some desired configuration. What is this configuration, you may ask? It should be obvious: It’s Huberman himself. Under the guise of “health optimization”, Hube is secretly COPYING HIMSELF into his podcast audience (think of agent smith in matrix 2). Moreover, this is not only happening on a physiological level. If you’ve listened to a lot of his podcast, you must have gone through the experience of having a little Huberman in your head commenting on your life choices, saying things like “you should avoid these starchy carbohydrates” when looking at a pizza, or “zero drinks would be better” when your friend invites you to a bar. At this point, you might still identify these thoughts as “that’s what huberman would say”, but it’s only a question of time until his thoughts become your thoughts. So what is Huberman’s plan once he has converted half of humanity into replicas of himself? Is he building an army? Is it pure madness? I’m still trying to figure this out, but I believe it might be a completely passive process, like a virus infecting its host and replicating mindlessly. In that case, Huberman is but a host to what I would like to term the “Guberman” virus. Of course, all of this is just conjecture, but I want you guys to be careful with this podcast🙏
What drops after a peak is the DOPAMINE level baseline OR the DOPAMINE RECEPTORS? Or both? I'm kinda confused with this. For example, if there's like a dopamine generating activity, and you constantly keep doing it. Does the ammount of dopamine that your body produces start to decrease, or the number of dopamine receptors start to decrease? Or both?
Cocciane drugs longs in the body few hours or 1 day almost 2days when cociane get out of the body dopamine level falls down because that cociane was mimicking the dopamine receptors for the previous time
My mom tried to have sex with me when i was late in high school. Ive blamed her for my 20 years of addiction to drugs and alcohol. You sir, just spit some words that completely understand.
As terrible as that is, and I do feel for you. I wanna make it clear this message is meant to help you. Not make fun of you. It was still you who made the decision to abuse substances. Don't give abusers any more power over you than they already once had.
Yeah but why can’t someone just stop doing cocaine? Why would someone ruin their life over cocaine and alcohol and not just give it up and go back to normal…
To ignore the opioid system and disregard social factors like trauma and socioeconomic status when "explaining addiction" in favor of a gross reductionist view of "dopamine addiction" is absolute pseudoscience sorry Doc
I don’t understand why sex addiction is bad, we are human beings and it’s in our nature to feel sexual, some people find it pleasurable and some don’t I do , same way we like music and food it should be the same with sex, why certain good things bad? I don’t believe it I think if we are happy and comfortable with our sexuality why not express it? Sex should be experienced more we shouldn’t be ashamed of sex

Can lack of sexual mood be because of lack of dopamine in us?
No, lack of testosterone levels and other factors ( e.d., alcohol/drug use , depression, weight gain, bad diet, ..) would be more accurate imo
I think these short videos are great. They are pretty short and convenient to watch, while still giving good education
Im studying neuronscience in my letures at university and this video came up at the perfect time! Thank you.

I just wanted to mention that.
Can dopamine levels return back to normal after avoiding substances for some time ?
Would using the addiction of choice prior to engaging in a behavior that promotes limbic friction, prime those neural pathways to receive the adjacent prolactin increase, and therefore the significant dopamine increase that follows?
Staving off additional cravings for the addicted behavior?
I have experienced this
Everything pleasurable in moderation. Candy, drugs, and even sex.
So weed is Safe at all ?
I've tried cocaïne several times, but it really didn't do much for me. I didn't get more energy, all what happened is that i didn't want to engage in contact with others.
