When I complete something my anxiety about completing it goes away. But no dopamine. Just a drop in adrenaline and cortisol.

What I would give to have a dopamine response without feeding my brain my ADHD pills.

I can't imagine how insanely nice it must be to have a brain that just... makes the shit you need.

Technically all the dopamine you need is there, it's just that there aren't enough receptors to receive it. Hardly more than a semantic difference though, besides being even more frustrating knowing it's literally all up there but there aren't enough doors for it to squeeze in to the party bus fast enough.
