This matches experience with dieting and impulse control, without these drugs even. Two days of junk food and the food brain is SCREAMING in my head. So I just don't do it. It's also way more obvious when I mess up, that it makes my body feel bad.

But when I say food brain, it's everything. I want to vape, I want to have more coffee, then more beer, then some cannabis to go to sleep. Wake up and hit the dopamine cycle again. I have to take care of myself and ask "why am I doing this, could I just not, and if so I must not".
