The serotonin virgin vs. The dopamine Chad (1/2)

Life shouldn’t be about hormones but rather about enjoying adventures, leveling up and creating beautiful things.
Unfortunately the world can be quite gay and sometimes need to get technical about things like hormones so we can move a little more naturally and freely through this life.

Besides the estrogen epidemic, serotonin has also been on the rise (they feed into each other).
Serotonin has often been called a “happy hormone” that’s used against depression and anxiety.
The funny part is that it can actually increases these things (haha).

High serotonin charactar traits:
- Tiredness/lethargy
- Over-excitation
- Rigidness
- Depression
- Reduced cognition
- Non-assertiveness
- Anxiety

People with high serotonin usually have low dopamine.
Dopamine is actually much closer to this ‘happy hormone’ and does help you to enjoy life, to feel motivated — while serotonin does the opposite.

This doesn’t mean you want to fry your dopamine receptors by watching endless tiktoks, on the contrary.
Also people with Parkinsons for example, are chronically low dopamine.
