PLEASE HELP: Is there some kind of dopamine issue?

Posted by Joe Rogan on October 16, 2014, at 20:06:23

I cannot stop eating donuts, drinking coffee (all the time, coffee coffee coffee), masturbating, puffing on my vaporizer (it used to be a pack a day of cigarette), and taking Adderall. DO I have a dopamine depletion problem? My sense of reward also seems trashed! I have no motivation to succeed or work. amotivational apathy synrome. It hits me before a possibly successful job interview, BAM. My voice is shaky and lacks confidence. What I say does not sell interviewers at jobs. It barely got me a place to live out of pure luck and I had to lie a little.

TO put it simply: I cannot stop drinking coffee, drinking soda, eating one to two donuts every day, administering nicotine from my vaporizer pen(used to be smoking). AND THESE ARE SPENDING IMPULSES! I buy vials of E-liquid, Soda, Coffee, etc rather than taking care of myself. You know - when you are poor you need to buy NUTRITION. Not sugar and stimulants. $40 what do you buy? A $9 vial of e-juice and the rest on coffees and food.

I use to drink 6 sodas a day. What drug is helpful to suppress this dopamine imbalance and depression of fatigue and burnt out state? Is it Wellbutrin? Itake Adderall + Desipramine. I read that Wellbutrin stops smoking addiction. Desipramine is supposed to help with cocaine dependence. Desipramine felt like it was working for a little while. I only take 50MG.

It feels like Adderall at no tolerance is the only thing that makes me feel undepressed and alive again. 60MG is where it is at. I feel dead without it. Tolerance comes with it as well. My soccial inhibitions are intensified without it too. I'm at harmony with everything and even come close to being able to experience intimacy with a woman again. With no stimulants or sugar there is a great fatigue - a crash state. I face this every morning when I wake up and I fight it with more stimulants, resulting in a greater crash! I'm just trying to be well enough to survive. When I was a kid I use to have tons of adderall.ritalin.. It was just pills in a bottle, these days it is some miracle drug.

Do I have this schizoaffective disease? They told me I had it at a mental hospital one time, it is frightening. I read on Wikipedia that schizoaffective people have a coexisting nicotine dependency. I'm fearing the worst. I thought it was ADHD psychosis, psychosis secondary to depresion, or just OCD filling my mind with intrusive thoughts. I don't hear voices or see anything. I'm self medicating with sugar, coffee, stimulants and my dopamine system is trashed. I'm willing to bet if you brain scanned my head you'd see a problem with the reward system. Switch to Wellbutrin or something other than desipramine? I take Zyprexa and depakote too. Maybe Zyprexa causing this? I mean dude, mountain dew? Also, pork bacon, and porn. What's going to restore the reward system and make me wake up with vitality, a will power to cut the stimulants, and not be crashed and burnt? I read that the adrenals can be burnt out to where it causes these cravings too...Certain cytomegalovirus can also cause fatigue syndrome. It could be OCD too. All of it.. Who knows! My medical care isn't the greatest.
