I felt fine the first 10 days. Then I crashed and Im just so sad and depressed at the 14days mark. 0 motivation, sleepy. Its awful. I actually had dopamine for tasks when I gamed, now its depletion like 0.

Back when addicted, my negative feelings used to linger and never go away. Basically 0 emotional processing, so I'd be stuck with the things I experienced. Imagine you get rejected and it becomes a 'personality trait' that is now stuck to you, like you call yourself names etc, versus being able to process it normally and moving on.
The triggers and irritations from people are the same, but the feeling doesnt become a 24/7 mood like hating all humans because xyz. Now, things just get processed in real time, and go away naturally. .
Anyone else notice this? Im just not angry at the world recently. Things dont linger. I can be so calm and regulated.
