Our brains have a reward system, regulated by the release of a "feel-good" hormone -- dopamine. When dopamine is dysregulated, we often feel less motivated, impulsive or inescapably bored; this leads to behaviors like endless social media scrolling, searching for dopamine in sugary foods, or turning to addictive behaviors to get a quick dopamine fix. In this episode, Dr. Luper and Hallie share insight on regulating dopamine, and the link between dopamine and ADHD.
