Multitasking lowers actual productivity. Shifting between tasks requires an active release of dopamine in the brain to adapt. Stop juggling tasks to give your cognitive systems a break.
Gawd, I know why we can't have straight-up dopamine pills because they would pose a huge risk for addiction… and I'm the first in line to be susceptible… but SOME DAYS!!! 💀
Related: I saw a post the other day that made me think/realize… I experience autism more as a "social disability" in how people treat me vs. ADHD as an ""actual"" DISABILITY because it directly affects my own personal individual ability to DO THINGS. I feel like the general neurotypical perception is the opposite — that even high-masking / low-support-needs autism is a "problem" and ADHD is just "quirky." Sigh.
I need WD-40 for my brain.

The article reports on a study examining how romantic partners are processed differently from close friends within the brain’s reward system, focusing on the nucleus accumbens and dopamine signaling. It finds that a partner’s neural signature is distinct early in a relationship but becomes less differentiated as the bond matures, suggesting a shift from passionate love to companionate love.
From a psychology perspective, the findings illuminate how neural representations of intimate bonds evolve over time and how social rewards drive partner-specific processing. The study also demonstrates how neural patterns differentiate partners from friends and how relationship duration can influence this distinction.
