The Mechanism of a Diction
Dopemine is a neural transmitter that's intimately associated with the experience of pleasure, reward and motivation. If i do something pleasurable, ike eat a piece of chocolate, i get little release of dopemine in the brain. And that release of dopamine causes my pleasure pain balance to tip to the side of pleasure. But one of the rules governing that balance is that it wants to preserve what's called homeo stasis. It wants to remain level. So no sooner has that happened than my brain down gulates my own dopemin transmission and my own dopemen receptors.
