Cocaine is a hell of a drug

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 😂😂😂

@ren19801

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

@LashZhvania-Movies-MMA-Science

Talk about Masturbation Addiction too. you never had about this topic

@harryv6752

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.

Let's just think about dopamine what is it and how to get it without being an addict. Get to the point.

@Hatchet-Jack

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.

@damoclezz

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.

@fitfighting

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!

@icycreme2307

I think these short videos are great. They are pretty short and convenient to watch, while still giving good education

@117zachbaker

Im studying neuronscience in my letures at university and this video came up at the perfect time! Thank you.

@ericdaugherty4648

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.

@Red23165

Thank you ❤

@ericdaugherty5607

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!

@FreshGrey-pm4vw

excellent presentation - I will share with my counseling colleagues;-)

@jopo7996

Addictions are bad. Especially commenting on every Huberman video for dopamine hits.

@household6098

Excellent... and so i guess this is what makes sugar addictive.

@questioneverything1946

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?
