Down in the dumps

Yes, I admit I’ve been down there again. And I've been an ass to the people I should have not. Shutting everyone off or being rude, though it seemed a good way to avoid any more stimuli to my brain then, was not the best solution. Sorry.

What do you think?

Today I’ll just post some posts that I’ve been reading the past few weeks.

  • Alcohol and Dopamine:

Simply tasting beer, with no effect from the alcohol itself, can trigger the release of dopamine in the brain, according to a new study from Indiana University School of Medicine.

The findings revealed significantly more dopamine activity after the participants tasted beer compared to the sports drink. The effect was much greater among those with a family history of alcoholism.

 

Just a Taste of Beer Releases Dopamine

Reminds me of this song:

I've got the bottle, bring me your cup

Pop the cork and try a sup

And when you're empty, I'll fill you up

We'll drink it down till the sun comes up
