·1 replyDrogonAre you able to speak on the dopamine deficiency and whether quitting the phone entirely has improved this?
Okay, so I kind of figured out that my out of control scrolling via smartphone habit was the result of a dopamine deficiency due to my ADHD, since I have been begun treatment for this I can feel that this is being catered for via the medication. I'm still going through the titration period where my doctor goes through the process where they starts a low dose of a d*** and gradually increases it to find the lowest effective amount that provides maximum benefits with minimal side effects, so it's still tweaking that sweet spot but i'm already seeing benefits.
As i no longer need my phone for baseline dopamine I am motivated to seek it out in other avenues such as exercise, long-form reading via books, and interacting with people irl (i'm high functioning but still find this one a bit tricky as i communicate can sometimes catch folks off guard).
I think that no longer have the desire to resort to quick dopamine hits speaks volumes as i was scrolling up to 8 hours a day at my worst.
I can totally relate to the anhedonia thing it's like your brain has extracted as much dopamine as possible and there is none left. I truly feel we haven't seen the extent of how bad smartphone and unlimited access has on the brains and the consequences are gonna be brutal in the long-term at least for this generation.
Appreciate the response
I definitely feel i have undiagnosed ADHD, currently battling a nasty bout of anhedonia which is affecting my work, ability to socialise and eating habits. This follows a period of high stress in june
Ive been battling these phases on and off since i was about 15, im currently 30. The timing of it starting coincides with when i started using an ipod touch and then iphone but it also coincides with puberty so its hard to pin down
What medication are you on if you dont mind me asking?
tbh I'm eyeing this route too
Thread reminded me to turn grayscale mode back on on my phone
You gotta have a balance. You're not balanced rn, it's just performative

aww i'm sorry you are currently going through this man it's really tough.
i had an ipod touch around that age and would constantly spam my favourite songs to the point where i wouldn't feel them anymore and the novelty wore off, again i have the feeling this is a symptom of dopamine deficiency.
i'm currently on elvanse
