dht and creativity
-
I’ve been looking into the research papers, and I feel like I must have dropkicked a toad on the way to my pc because the results are clear: dht is portrayed as something that promotes linear thinking. It seems we are massively overhyping this stuff for creativity.
Flowstate is characterized by Transient Hypofrontality. This is a quieting of the rigid, self-monitoring, inhibitory parts of the Prefrontal Cortex (PFC). This is key because it allows the brain to transition from explicit, conscious control to automatic action.
DHT promotes PFC activity.
High DHT prompts the brain to think in a rigid, overcontrolled manner, which suppresses creativity. Creativity depends on balance: the Default Mode Network (DMN), which represents your free, wandering thoughts, and the Executive Network (EXN), which facilitates focus and execution. Excess DHT overactivates control and shuts down mental wandering, which is exactly where creative ideas form.If we look at people who optimize T and DHT the most, like HansAmato,boost your biology guy, they barely shitposts. It seems we are overhyping DHT for creativity
You want proof? Look at these twitter users timelines.
Example 1: @cynomel
Look at his timeline from December 1st to December 12th. He started 100mg of DHT on the 1st. For +-12 days, his content was as dry as a naturally desiccated lizard. The moment he dropped the dose? The creative, novel shitposting returned instantly.Example 2: Al Haidut
Go back to October 31st. Compare the 100mg dht era to what was before. The difference is night and day. When they are blasting, they turn into linear robots. When they stop or lower the dose, you can see the differenceYou might be waking up with a baritone voice like a metal pipe hitting a sink, but your personality is getting absolutely naturally desiccated.

@lobotomize what did you take today
-
@user1 shitposting is a measure of creativity?
-
-
@user1 Take tianeptine sulfate, and you will discover what true creativity means
-
@lobotomize I've heard of this before on RPF. Nootropics depot used to sell. US source?

Various artists are famously fond of opioids lobo but it's probably not a good idea to promote them.

@ThinPicking This mildly stimulates the opioid receptor but antagonizes serotonin and increases dopamine. It makes me a better soccer player. If it were harmful, it would have negatively affected my soccer performance. Separately, I notice a general effect: I become mentally sharper for a couple of days after taking it. It is also one of the few chemicals that, when used long term, improves cerebral blood flow.

@jamezb46 im in the eu so i have no idea

It's a nodder and you know it. You can try to abstract that away with waffle all you want.
-
@ThinPicking yo whigger, did you change something to my acc? Cant send pms any longer
-
No 'user1'. Do you need tech support?

@ThinPicking said in dht and creativity:
No 'user1'. Do you need tech support?
It suddenly started to say "you need 0 réputation to chat" even tho i was talking in pm past days with this acc no problem
-
Zero rep!
@Kilgore said in What's up with all the spam posts?:
@brad Hey bud! The registration queue thing works well. I think you could remove the "minimum upvotes required for posting" filter as the people who want to post are always fine. That part is not needed. But keep the registration queue and I will keep approving/declining people!
What's going on bill @Kilgore. Have we accidentally enabled hate mode?
-
@lobotomize the X users you mentionned, in case of people that post about health, what matter the most is posting infos that are the most relevant and positive to people health, creativity or shitposting isnt necessary usefull
-
@user1 Posting health advice, reading studies, and summarizing them, in my opinion, isn’t creative. Creating theories and hypotheses is creative, but it’s hard to track their origin and determine whether they’re just a copy paste. Humor, however, is always creative: it requires crafting the right sentence for the right context at the right time

@ThinPicking why would i lie
-
@lobotomize cynomel on twitter blocked on twitter after i said exemestane only causes negative side effects on testosterone esters, i don't think these peat twitter personalities are very bright
-
@ethan Have I ever spoken about their intelligence? I'm talking about tendencies. The same goes for not testing rat intelligence before inspecting its behavior on diffrent chems
-
@lobotomize if you want more creative tendencies, why take some bipolar med with unpredictable receptor effects ? why not source allopregnanolone from China or megadose progesterone
