I'm fighting my brain's urge to not finish reading this. Even though I need to hear it. I need to change.

Dr Huberman, can you please do a podcast on "connection with others" I try to do this all my life, but people have been nothing but a disappointment. I actually get more trauma, anxiety, depression when I deal with people that it has isolated myself and turned from being extroverted to introverted just like that. I hear this common theme saying "connect with others" but people are toxic, and I really can't find any support system outside common therapy related. So is there another solution as to simply just connecting with others is the most important thing to psychology health?

This was a great discussion, as usual. Thank you. It would be grand if someone could address, in particular, food addiction/eating disorders. I know that you've had guests who touched on this topic, but it seems no one has any real solutions. The subject seems to be glossed over. I believe dealing with disordered eating is more difficult than dealing with alcohol and drugs. We humans must eat several times a day.  I know you know this, but we who deal with binging, for example, have to face the issue constantly throughout the day, which becomes a part of the problem. We can't step away from it. We can get therapy if we can afford it, but changing eating habits often involves a complete lifestyle shift. If other people live in the house, well, good luck. Disordered eating doesn't destroy lives as obviously as alcohol and drugs do. It's just this insidious thing that "eats" away at you every day, all day, three times a day, minimum.  The "diet" industry has made a mint off of our struggle and provided no real solution in the end. I don't know if there's someone out there who really knows how to help. Are there protocols? Just askin'.

Using a substance the first time and for the first time feeling like `me`, `normal`, `complete`.
I always had this with MDMA and I think it is because my inherited brain chemistry is a bit off.
And I think different people have this with different substances depending on how (in specific ways) their inherited brain chemistry is off or got put off in childhood (certain receptors expressed less etc...)
This was a great episode, thank you.

Addiction is not the problem; it is the solution for a stressor which has become problematic that needs to be examined.

Super Brain and How To Do The Work are great books that helped me. Having a life challenge to focus on (like Read Your Height) also helped me. Just never give up. And remember that the things you are learning might be the reason you have been blessed with this specific challenge/addiction. Much love to all my fellow struggling humans ❤

So much good information to unpack in this content. Along the lines of alcohol addiction I would LOVE it if you did an episode on The Sinclair Method and Naltrexone.
