Reply To: High pain tolerance, ok, but why?

[Robbo]

The thing about physical pain is the adrenaline it makes our glans squirt into our blood streams. It’s yet another high for us, isn’t it?. When a persons brain does not make the regular amount of dopamines, when we would normally get a “reward” for a job well done. We tend to feel like we’re missing out on that something that other folks always seem to be talking about. Feeling good about self, when they seem to have achieved some sort of success in life.

I wonder if I just haven’t been satisfied with the amount of dopiness/dopamine  my brain gets when I do something well.

Which comes first, the dopiness or the dopamine?

Body piercing is a quick and sometimes fun way to get a quick shot of that junk. Yep, it’s junk you guys. We’re junkies!!! lol.

Dope junkie! Yep, I’m talking to you man.

You think you’re so tough. But you’re just a dope phene like the rest of us. Got “the disease called more” just like those drunks down on 25th street… When I was a pre-teen growing up in Utah. We used to put a dime in the bus thing and go downtown to get foot long hot dogs n listen to all the crazy stories the drunks used to come up with.

They always wanted money for a cup of coffee. Or they had a sick mom and needed to catch a bus to go rescue their moms. I bet some of them had sick moms too. But we always knew they would be spending whatever we gave them on wine.

That’s us.

There but for the grace of God go I.
