具體描述
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.

##huberman anna lembke 很精彩的一本書，纔知道為什麼有人會對痛上癮，解釋瞭很多生活中的現象
評分##年度最佳。 在這個多巴胺橫流，廉價快樂泛濫，智能手機成為注射器的時代。我們終該改變點兒什麼。 I saw in their brokenness my own vulnerability and humanity. I was reassured that I was not alone in my doubts, fears, and weaknesses.
評分##作者自述淩晨兩點興緻勃勃看著《五十度灰》某段s**m描寫，突然醒悟看這逗比玩意並不是自己想要的人生。笑死我瞭，太過真實…
評分##Pleasure and pain are co-located. What goes up must come down.
評分##讀到一半果斷棄，看完conclusion ，慶幸棄瞭。斯坦福精神科成癮問題主任，對成癮的見地就這麼錶麵的麼？見到的病人都是生活優越，完全沒有一丟丟復雜的社會因素導緻成癮的麼？對抗成癮就是自律，戒斷一個月，就醬？拿自己喜歡看言情小說來共情成癮患者，是不是有點搞笑瞭？有一些啓發，但總體看不下去。
評分##解釋瞭各種addiction中pleasure和pain的平衡關係。學到最有操作性的是dopamine fast這個概念。限製使用高dopamine的事物，能讓dopamine system重新敏感起來。另一點是如果想要戒掉一個壞習慣，要徹底斷絕至少一個月，纔能真的起效。過度的手機使用和進食都是addiction的形式。
