Episode #207: Why Fantasizing Feels Normal
Episode 207
Sunday, 1 February, 2026
Your brain isn’t broken. You’re living inside a neurological environment built by chronic overstimulation.What feels “normal” today is engineered. Algorithms train your nervous system to expect reward without effort — and over time, your brain’s effort system goes offline.When stimulation replaces engagement, motivation drops, focus fractures, emotional regulation weakens, and desire shuts down.That’s not a discipline problem.It’s a nervous system state.In this Supernormal conversation, you’ll understand: • Why overstimulation rewires effort, desire, and regulation • Why habit change fails when the nervous system is dysregulated • Why porn use and dopamine loops flatten real-world reward • How miswiring shows up as low motivation, anxiety, ED, or shutdownReal change doesn’t start with willpower.It starts with seeing how your brain adapts.Why Fantasizing Feels Normal 🤔👉 If you want clarity instead of guessing, brain mapping shows what’s actually happening — and how regulation restores capacity, start with a brain map at https://drtrishleigh.com/ Send us a textSupport the showHi.
