King13 Interviews Dr Anna Lembke and her book "Dopamine Nation" Anna Lembke is an American psychiatrist who is Chief of the Stanford Addiction Medicine Dual Diagnosis Clinic at Stanford University. She is a specialist in the opioid epidemic in the United States, and the author of Drug Dealer, MD, How Doctors Were Duped, Patients Got Hooked, and Why It’s So Hard to Stop. Her new book, a New York Times bestseller, Dopamine Nation: Finding Balance in the Age of Indulgence, was released in August 2021. Lembke appeared in the 2020 Netflix documentary The Social Dilemma. This book is about pleasure. It’s also about pain. Most important, it’s about how to find the delicate balance between the two, and why now more than ever finding balance is essential. We’re living in a time of unprecedented access to high-reward, high-dopamine stimuli: drugs, food, news, gambling, shopping, gaming, texting, sexting, Facebooking, Instagramming, YouTubing, tweeting… The increased numbers, variety, and potency is staggering. The smartphone is the modern-day hypodermic needle, delivering digital dopamine 24/7 for a wired generation. As such we’ve all become vulnerable to compulsive overconsumption.   In Dopamine Nation, Dr. Anna Lembke, psychiatrist and author, explores the exciting new scientific discoveries that explain why the relentless pursuit of pleasure leads to pain…and what to do about it. Condensing complex neuroscience into easy-to-understand metaphors, Lembke illustrates how finding contentment and connectedness means keeping dopamine in check. The lived experiences of her patients are the gripping fabric of her narrative. Their riveting stories of suffering and redemption give us all hope for managing our consumption and transforming our lives. In essence, Dopamine Nation shows that the secret to finding balance is combining the science of desire with the wisdom of recovery.Dopamine Nation: Finding Balance in the Age of Indulgence Dopamine Nation: Finding Balance in the Age of Indulgence   No Sippy No Slippy.

Polly and Drifter discuss shutting down the arguments in their minds.   Cognitive Dissonance: The state of having inconsistent thoughts, beliefs, or attitudes, especially as relating to behavioral decisions and attitude change.   Neural Pathways: In brief, a neural pathway is a series of connected neurons that send signals from one part of the brain to another. ... These connected neurons process the information we receive. It is these that enable us to interact, as well as experience emotions and sensations. They create our memories and enable us to learn.   The Biology of Desire: Why Addiction Is Not a Disease MARC LEWIS, PHD Dopamine Nation: Finding Balance in the Age of Indulgence ANNA LEMBKE, MD Rewired: A Bold New Approach To Addiction and Recovery ERICA SPIEGELMAN     No Sippy No Slippy.
