The brain make the body do anything for dopamine. Eat a whole pizza? Sleep for 12hrs? Doom scroll all day? The body is destructive and is literally controlled by the hedonic pleasure center in the brain to do what ever for pleasure. Science proves this. Based response.

dopamine is *not* a pleasure molecule, it's a *learning* molecule

it makes you do stuff that you might even find disgusting

e.g., eating a whole pizza, again and again, and every time hating yourself afterwards

it's not pleasure that makes us want things again, it's dopamine, and it has nothing to do with pleasure

If you eat a whole pizza, how do you feel? I get strong feedback that I made a horrible mistake. 

Just got to listen to your body.
