Chemical Systems Effects: My Journey Through Burnout, Neurotransmitters, and Sex Addiction

from DOPEamine · host Christian A. Rivera

In this episode, I delve into the fascinating world of chemical systems effects and their impact on my mental and emotional wellbeing. Join me as I explore my journey through burnout and my relationship to key neurotransmitters such as dopamine, oxytocin, testosterone, and serotonin. I also touch on the role of sex addiction and how it relates to my overuse of analytic brain functioning. Don't miss this insightful conversation on the intersection of chemistry and psychology from my personal perspective.Pick up my new book Happy Chemicals: A Neurotic Memoir at http://www.bit.ly/happychemicalsbookThis is a book about a person writing a book and the challenges that come with writing a book. I guess it's also about a person trying to better understand themselves by outputting their inner dialogue into a book to try and better understand the parts of themselves. It's a neurotic memoir because it's about letting loose and seeing what the brain truly comes up with, complains about, notices, figures out, makes absurd, wants to dismiss, and wants to hide. This book is about bringing all of those thoughts, even the scary ones, up to the surface to bounce them around a bit and make some sense out of it or better yet, nonsense.--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/happychemicals/message Get full access to DOPEamine at dopeamine.substack.com/subscribe
