Instructions unclear. Starved myself to death.

Necessity is the mother of adaptation.

When you're anxious or depressed, you lose your appetite. Which leads to hunger or starving. Which leads to change? Wonder if that loop was intentional

As a muslim I can safely say from personal fasting experiences, it really does give you the capability to make some heavy changes in your life. That's why during ramadan the act of worship is so intense, and usually afterwards your minimum is much higher.

what im understanding is i need to starve myself in order to get to grandmaster on overwatch

develop ✍️ eating ✍️ disorder ✍️

what if I'm starvation resistant, in the sense that I'm too used to not doing anything?

I'd like to know how this could relate to eating disorders.

I sure would like to stop forgetting to feed myself. This will be so helpful.

Now I'm thinking about that pizza in the fridge 💀 Edit: Could not eat that pizza because it's gone. My dad ate it.💀 Now my brain has PANIK evolutionary signal to order a new one. xD

I can fast for days but I just feel worse without any urge to make changes. I'm like: yeah, I feel like dying anyway.

I need to tell my brain this cuz sometimes I can go a whole day not eating, realize at like midnight my hands are shaking from hunger and then go "oh. damn. but I don't want to cook." and go to sleep 💀

I’ve long felt that fasting was revitalizing for the brain and body, but this gives me a whole new perspective. It does make perfect sense, but until now I associated the realization process (the waking up to reality) as a result of discomfort in general. For me these things have been: cold water, fasting, boredom, etc. I’d like an actual study done on this to see if there’s an actual link between neuroplasticity and fasting, or if it’s just as a form of discomfort.

New strat: study before every meal

Hey, does anyone have any good research papers on a topic like this? I wanna learn more from professionals, but I don't know what to look up.

Tried that tecnique, not sure why I ended up in a hospital bed fed with tubes down my nose. 10/10 working with no problems

i don’t feel like much is learned from me regularly failing to get food for myself and getting low blood sugar which makes it even more difficult to make food until the stomach starts screaming at me loud enough that i’m forced to eat something and so the cycle continues. though, i guess as long as there’s something to eat available i’m not really starving, just constantly hungry, low blood sugar and very unproductive

listening to Doctor K with Lo-Fi on the background is now a thing for me

Full vid?

Next time I need to stop a bad habit, I'll just fast the whole day when I make the mistake.

Why wouldn't this just lead to the brain going: "This strategy isn't working" or "Working on bettering myself isn't working"

HANG ON I JUST REALISED I HAVE ADAPTED THIS UNCONSCIOUSLY, i starve myself when i have lots of negative feelings and am not doing good in school then i start thinking critically and do better and i work well for a week then old habits come back

Oh so that’s why I only start revising properly when I start failing my courses

"What is the one evolutionary signal that our brain needs to signal to us that this strategy is not working?" Instant death.

Is there a full video for this ?

this explains why i got so sad that I spilled my ice tea due to a family argument or when I dropped my gyro.

When he said “in today’s society” I felt that.

In other words, modern society is making us dumb and lazy. We need to introduce challenge and hardship into our lives.

**Goes on diet** Brain: This was a bad idea!

Instructions unclear: Achieved enlightenment.

Door dash and Uber eats ruined my rizz lmao

This man teaches more than psychistry, he teaches a lot of wisdom from scientific literature.

You should balance that by telling people that when someone starves all the time the condition response is negative, No matter the tissue,the adaptation to the stress occurs while you rest. At least if you intend to get stronger.

Full video with more context?

Conclusion: Don't eat for a week before doing a math test.

What video is this from? I'd like the full context.

eat one egg a day, got it

Did this with your video and posted it couple days ago before you

Video is little complicated to understand. I need main full video. Link please

This is a great new connection of ideas, but I feel it doesn't answer the question at the title of the short "How do we avoid repeating mistakes?" Don't they usually post the link to the longer video that goes more in depth?

what vid is this from? Would like some more context

Actually the deprivation comes from the addiction to comfort! Which is the primary cause to most gaming addicts, or sugar addicts alike. The strive of more! That’s how I landed here!

This. Yes. Dr Pradip Jamnadas out of Orlando Florida has many great lectures on KZfaq discussing how hormones are affected by the practice of eating

full video link?

When I’m trying something new I’ll make sure to not eat hours ahead, so when I inevitably fail my brain will correlate that hunger to me failing that task, then I’ll figure it out before rewarding myself with food. Thank you online guru.

This is so true, especially with things like 'exercise more', but you still have mondo amounts of food etc, so what is the survival need to change ? I start dieting, but now I'm eating less so in ur body ur feeling something must be wrong, so it'll naturally do things that will sabotage your diet wants.. Or other psychological lifestyle changes.. It's the same thing.. This is a perameter to try to work within for an easier change.. 😁🌏☮️

What is this episode from?

Wait, so my forgetfulness around food sometimes is actually not a thing to be worried about and might actually be a contributing factor to my recent personal growth? Fascinating.

I figured out that I am most creative when I am detoxing from the internet 😅 when I am hungry, I just get angry

I think what he meant by "starvation" is to go on a detox, we know we need to find a different strategy but our brain doesn't. So the dopamine fasting is like starvation for our brain and body.

My dumb ass somehow not eating enough already:

Im a big fan of backpacking in the wild 1-2 days without caffeine, food, nicotine and this weekend also first time without adhd meds i got prescribed

What video does this come from?

Could this be why anorexia is so treatment-resistant?

Ive done 3x 7 day dry fasts. Gonna do another 7-14 day dry fast very soon. I know how incredible it is on your brain. Just didn't know why. For what reason. This is pretty cool and makes total sense

Is it only food induced hunger, or perhaps physical (ie touch) starvation? What about emotional starvation (and the lack of a specific hormone, for example dopamine)? Does the lack of dopamine count as starvation too?

What's the source for this?

Then, to change habits, (that don’t directly deal with eating) is the strategy to physically starve of food, despite what the problem is? Or is there a way to “mentally” starve to change issues like procrastination?

Which video is this

and how do I work with this now? Id like to

Explains why I started doing well in med school after I started skipping meals

Starve myself when I fuck up, got it 👍

I can see how for certain groups of people, health at every size and fat acceptance has been used as a way to deny and ignore the negative health implications associated with long term obesity (emphasis on long term because in the short term you can be obese and have no issues related to it). And I have seen evidence of some toxicity in these spaces (like all internet spaces) where you are shamed for even wanting to lose weight because that apparently makwa you anti-fat acceptance. But this is a loud minority and for the most part, body positivity, fat acceptance, health at every size - at their core they are about showing people that health is about daily good decisions and self-care (which often requires the privilege of time, financial resources, and good mental health that not everyone has) not about what you look like. And that your value is not determined by your size or appearance. And whether or not you try to lose weight or stay the same is a personal choice that others shouldn't have a say in.

Explanation: he's not saying to literally starve yourself, but to give yourself healthy separation from the thing that's causing you problems

Every time I quit smoking weed nicotine drinking is when I run out of money paying rent/bills where I cut it too close… then I get comfortable and then something bad or good triggers the habits again. But i can quit cold turkey so easy when I have a few days between realizing I gotta stretch 20 bucks 4-5 days for food so i stop eating just in case to buy some time. Consciously I know it’s, I don’t want to die like this lets hustle and realize the mistakes I’m not noticing. But it’s interesting you bring this up❤ Such a good way to snap out of the dream😂😂😂 Thank god I’m terrible at trading or I’d never quit again😂😂😂

It’s not starvation, Dr. K. It’s just neural plasticity. It’s more natural than the researches you seen. It’s not even starvation, it’s the body’s homeostasis state.

Rajesh Koothrapali

So, what is the solution?

The corollary to this may be, if you just did something you don't want to do again, do not grab yourself a snack!

Wilson!!!!

detoxifying is the key

Okay so the cure to my social media addiction is starvation

So to kick start myself, I should starve myself?

Might need more… uh context on this Hahah XD

I wouldnt say so for me because im a hunter

💚

I think making this a short is not a good idea man. I get the message, and I’m not saying you’re wrong but people on the internet are stupid and they might do dumb stuff. I don’t think people will die, but like, some forklift driver who passes out because he’s trying to “biohack” his brain to get out of the rut he’s in might hurt himself and other people if he passes out at the wheel.

Is there a paper anyone can cite for this? Like intuitively it makes sense, but is there a lot of evidence?

That won't work on me, I have autism and forgetting to eat means nothing to me. Disordered eating? Don't know him, I can't tell when I have disordered eating.

So how do you implement this practically, only eat calorically dense food to reward yourself? Or inversely, if you don’t do a good job then eat more modestly?

alr then im seriously trying starving now (dont worry i'll handle it myself everything is thought through)

The medical community is so often dismissive of psychology as a science and as a practice. And while there is bad psychology out there, there is also a lot of good psychology that is just blatantly ignored by the medical profession. And this includes the well-established principle that if you want someone to change their health behaviours then shame is going to get you nowhere. That's why motivational interviewing is so effective in an addiction setting. You have to find the patient/ client's motivations and evoke change talk FROM THE CLIENT. If you tell someone what they should be doing or how they should feel they are not going to be receptive they are only going to feel defensive and frustrated and are not going to listen to anything else you say. And you absolutely should not assume that any and all health complaints are just due to obesity.

42!

So basically what you’re telling me is need to starve myself so solve my problems. 💀💀💀 /j

Eating disorder go brrrrr

Stay hungry.

So if im procrastinating I should starve myself to fix it? Sounds like an ED speedrun. I usually agree with you but this one sounds a bit odd.

✍️starve ✍️my ✍️kids

He means litteraly not eating?

Sauce?

It makes sense now why people see changes after fasting. ♪⁵

This explains why revolutions and uprisings rarely ever start if the people arent starving. Its starvation that wakes the people up to their situation

LISTEN CAREFULLY GRASSHOPPER. NO STARVATION!! To REPEAT NO STARVATION, I DIDN'T COME TO THE LAND OF "MILK AND HONEY" TO GO ON A FAST.❤

So basically every religion has known this forever. Every religion has fasting somewhere in it and uses it as a way to re-center oneself.

What video is this from?

Yes, starvation is a concern that your brain signals, so you eat. But in no way does it "rewire your brain". What I think you're trying to talk about is natural selection, and it's something that happens to every creature, even programmed ones. If a creature doesn't reproduce due to death or isolation, then it's considered a failure, cause that gene doesn't get passed on. A success is the opposite, a gene gets successfully passed on. How this works and how it manages to evolve and change a creature is through mutations. Miniature changes in the DNA, if the change is a success, the DNA gets passed on, then changes again later on. This process is in no way instant. It took millions of years for fish to even start walking on land, little known laying eggs on land. "Natural selection"

Waaaaaait. But what about weed giving people munchies then? Do munchies also stimulate neurogenesis?

Doesn't that mean that fasting is a really important thing?
