dopamine expectation

Posted by Waki on August 19, 2004, at 9:11:17

It is said dopamine can increase pleasure. It is also said that dopamine can increase concentration.

the adhd people seem to look for concentration and maybe pleasure.

the depressed people look for pleasure.

I also heard people who do drugs do cocaine to feel good, but it's doing it because it generates dopamine.

Are lack of concentration and lack of pleasure and I guess even motivation all the same?

If one is doing something that supposed to be pleasurable and their concentration disinterests them and they change are the 2 effects not the same?

Or if one does not do something from lack of pleasure is this not being unmotivated?

From a priority stand point, which description does one tell their p-doc?

What effect do you get from dopamine?
