Chapter 6. "Cheap Dopamine"
What is dopamine?
Dopamine is a neurotransmitter that plays an important role in regulating mood, motivation, and pleasure. It is produced in the human body in response to pleasant stimuli, such as food, sex, achievements, etc.
"Cheap dopamine" is a quick and easy way to get pleasure from sources such as social networks, fast food, or computer games that do not provide long-term satisfaction and cause addiction. This term is contrasted with "expensive dopamine", which is produced as a result of long-term, diligent activities, such as studying or sports. In order not to fall into the "dopamine pit", it is necessary to maintain a balance, giving preference to more "expensive" dopamine.

A "dopamine pit" is a condition where the brain defends itself against over-stimulation, reducing the ability to enjoy ordinary things and losing motivation. This is due to an excess of "cheap" dopamine obtained from quick pleasures, such as social networks or games, which leads to a decrease in "expensive" dopamine from real achievements. To get out of the pit, it is recommended to reduce the time spent on gadgets, play sports and hobbies, and break down large tasks into small ones.
