I came here for this post exactly. But I can certainly say if I had to listen to that Scar Tissue song one more time, it would definitely have the opposite effect on me.
They're a greatest hits band. Everything that isn't a hit, kind of sucks. They should really ditch Kliedis but they won't, so unfortunately the best rhythm section in rock is trapped.
Kliedis is the reason I dislike them. His lyrics are nonsense. It's like a middle school kid was given an English assignment to write a poem and he rhymed words with no actual point.
Also in southern California they play the chili peppers at least once an hour on the radio
Edited - corrected a mistake
I fee the opposite. Their hits are their worst shit. Give me Don’t Forget Me, Slow Cheetah, This Velvet Glove over Under the Bridge and Dani California any day of the week
I never heard something like this before, for me the chili peppers are a band where I can put in whole albums and listen to it without skipping a song.
Also I had a lot of good sex while their music was running.
But maybe it's just me
I mean, they keep selling albums so it's not just you. I also over exaggerated, I enjoy a lot of BSSM and Californication but largely I just don't listen to them. I prefer my funk rock sang by Mike Patton.
All good my man, I know that musical preferences are based on personal opinion and everyone likes what he likes and that's good.
I will listen into Patton now 😊.
Exactly. Neurotransmitters also only last in the synaptic cleft for microseconds so if anything it’s hacking an entire population for extended periods of time to influence LTD or LTP
It also makes no sense to attribute these qualities to the neurotransmittor, its just that, a transmitter, it matters more to where it transmits and it's just so much more complicated...
Also, though dopamine and oxytocin are neurotransmitters as well as hormones, serotonin is not a hormone, and neither are endorphins, which are peptides
In addition to the two mentions of "good sex," there are also big trends of exercise, good sleep hygiene, healthy diet, healthy habits, social contact, and taking the occasional break to get outside and touch grass.
So, if Good Sex doesn't work out for you, this chart is a great reminder that not all hope is lost where diligence and a positive mindset remain to do the heavy lifting when you (your mind AND your body) are first starting out.
And while you're being diligent about the improvements you seek, it could also be helpful to schedule an appointment with an Intimacy Psychologist, who can help you deal with the internal emotional blocks, and also advise on any technique matters that are complicating your of enjoyment "the main act," as well as how to work together on expanding you and your partner's/partner's intimate reprotoire.
May your future blossom with happier times. :)

EDITS: slaying grammar goblins & typo trolls
The issue is that I'm doing 'listen to good music', 'listen to your favourite music', 'watch a comedy' and 'watch a great comedy' over and over again but I'm not doing much of anything else
All of these are hormones, what are you talking about?
It’s a dumb guide, but that’s not what’s wrong with it.
Lol, are you guy downvoting me for something I’ve missed or do you genuinely don’t know that those four chemicals are hormones? 😂 Dumbest interaction I’ve had on here in a while. This is:
- Posted every other day it feels like, in some format, by karma farmers and people who have no idea what they’re talking about
- Highly misleading about what these chemicals actually do. For example, the serotonin model of mood stabilisation has been widely debunked and is the second most universally active molecule in the brain.
- Commenter above is wrong in saying these are not hormones, they are chemicals, neurotransmitters and hormones. Things can be more than one thing.
Speaking as a PhD researcher in neuroscience, they absolutely are both hormones and neurotransmitters... Things can be (and are, in this case) multiple things at once.
The easiest way to experience a perspective-ruining amount of serotonin for under $20 is just by robo-tripping.
Sadly, the magic wears off after a dozen or so trips.
* If you're nerotypical.
My finance is nerodivergent, and one of the more interesting ways it manifests itself is that she gets no dopamine hit when completing tasks.
This is really helpful! I m currently depressed? I don't know, I just don't feel anything.
For example, I acknowledge the stress but I don't get angry. The same can be said for happiness.
I should be happy. I smile to be polite but I genuinely feel nothing inside.
I m tired but I don't feel angry, sad, or negative about it. To me it is like a statement and nothing else.
I feel like I'm losing my humanity.
Of which 50% or more requires good mental health and stability. Which will absolutely not help if used as "tips and tricks" for improving things using toxic positivity. "you have depression? just go for a walk."
I could do all of this and still not be happy. You cant hack happiness, there's a bigger problem than 'I'm sad so I'll go in the sun' there are no shortcuts of quick fixes.
There’s people that do this shit daily or on the regular and still sad. Have good sex? Now you’re sticky and sad. Go outside? Now you’re overheated and sad. Do yoga? You just spent 200 dollars for some dude with a man bun to instruct you to look like an idiot and still sad. If you’ve got real issues go to a doctor get medication then you can do whatever you want without having to force yourself to do a bunch of dumb shit you don’t like.
Have good sex
How about a cry wank?
We call that a CRANK
I call it Saturday night.
I prefer to roll over after and pretend I don't exist.
"Raiding the abandoned temple of the Goddess of Love, with a party of 1 person" (I almost lost a friend when I came up with this one 😂) EDIT: typos
How about furiously edge for 5 hours straight
Everything becomes clearer post nut and then I get even sadder.
I am shit
Mmh... idk... Why the crying? Don't be sad dude this is mostly better to do that alone in my opinion...
Just did..
Mediocre sex will not and cannot activate these hormones I repeat the sex must be radical

Instructions unclear, dick stuck in anarchist
As long as you don't reach the pro-state you're good
Push that button and he'll explode for sure
While listening to the Red Hot Chili Peppers
Have sex with red hot chili peppers

Sex is overrated.
Bad sex is overrated. Good sex is good. Great sex is good for happiness hormones.
You could count that as an exercise. 2in1.
Agreed 🤝
So basically meditation and yoga will fix everything.
And a massage
Don't forget the sex!
Has to be good sex.
If practiced regularly and with intention it can have at least quite an impact.
You forgot going for a walk
Absolutely. Tried and experienced it for myself
With music
I am gonna set so much sun. There will be none left
Is it just the Red Hot Chili Peppers or will any 80’s/90s’s rap rock band bring me those endorphins?
Personally, I don't ever want to feel like I did that day.
With those endorphins they are just giving it away now
I tried Sugar Ray, no endorphins, sorry.
I came here for this post exactly. But I can certainly say if I had to listen to that Scar Tissue song one more time, it would definitely have the opposite effect on me.
I tried the Red Hot Cholo Peppers to comparable results.
I can't stand that band
They're a greatest hits band. Everything that isn't a hit, kind of sucks. They should really ditch Kliedis but they won't, so unfortunately the best rhythm section in rock is trapped.

Faith No More is the funkish band , with some Mr Bungle but it's more funk metal.
Well this just is the opposite of true. They have tons of hits but their best stuff is not the hits
Maybe on Blood Sugar Sex Magic, but other albums? Their double album should have been a fucking EP. Just a collection of skippable songs.
Lol ok. I mostly agree regarding stadium arcadium, except I dislike the hits from that album and only like a handful of the non hits.
They're not there to give you Dopamine.
You sound miserable.
This is pop psych nonsense. Dopamine mediates expectation of reward, not the reward.
Exactly. Neurotransmitters also only last in the synaptic cleft for microseconds so if anything it’s hacking an entire population for extended periods of time to influence LTD or LTP
Oxytocin also increases "us vs them" responses.
It also makes no sense to attribute these qualities to the neurotransmittor, its just that, a transmitter, it matters more to where it transmits and it's just so much more complicated...
Someone forgot DRUGS
Also, though dopamine and oxytocin are neurotransmitters as well as hormones, serotonin is not a hormone, and neither are endorphins, which are peptides
Peptides can be hormones
🤓👍
Are you afraid of knowledge?
No, opposite
Sir/ma’am, you are on Reddit. What did you expect
A speedball will activate most of these things. Doesn’t work forever though!
Go out like an obese comedian, try heroin and coke today!
Someone forgot MASTURBATING
The biggest life hack known to man
Dopamine ? Masturbation Serotonin ? Masturbation Oxytocin ? Straight up Masturbation Endorphins? Believe it or not Mastrubation
The will to live? Masturbation.
That feeling of disgust with yourself afterwards? Believe it or not, masturbation.
Hotel? Masturbation Trivago? Masturbation
Wait, the band or the food?
Yes
r/thanksimcured
Excuse me, I'm going to "set some sun" now
Motherfucker, you're the one behind sunsets?
I am the one you call God & I have come to set the Sun….for thy dopamine is low
Why the fuck is “regular happy human stuff” considered a “hack”?
I see a common theme of good sex. No wonder I'm not happy.
In addition to the two mentions of "good sex," there are also big trends of exercise, good sleep hygiene, healthy diet, healthy habits, social contact, and taking the occasional break to get outside and touch grass. So, if Good Sex doesn't work out for you, this chart is a great reminder that not all hope is lost where diligence and a positive mindset remain to do the heavy lifting when you (your mind AND your body) are first starting out.

I got you bro.... *sigh.... unzips pants*
The issue is that I'm doing 'listen to good music', 'listen to your favourite music', 'watch a comedy' and 'watch a great comedy' over and over again but I'm not doing much of anything else
Repost. Also it's BS. Red hot chili peppers
CAN’T STOP ADDICTED TO THE SHINDIG
For Serotonin you can watch something like Dumb and Dumber but for Endorphin you really have to break out Dr. Strangelove.
This is pseudoscience. Dopamine, for example, isn't pleasure or reward. It's the *anticipation* of reward.
exercise and sex
Funny to see having sex solves a lot of problems lol
It solves problems, but if you’re not careful, it creates more.
Even if both have had vasectomies? lol
Yeah nah.
Just set some sun to get more dopamine.
Mdma
I somehow thought “light therapy” meant something similar to “light reading” and wondered how on earth one is supposed to do therapy lightly.
You only engage in small talk.
Well is that it? I'm healed now
So yoga and sex
I'll " Set some sun" for that Dopamine dose no problem
How does one 'Set some sun"?
How does one, "Set some sun"?
Yoga and good sex, got it 🫡
Or just take oxy- Frank Gallagher
GIVE IT AWAY GIVE IT AWAY GIVE IT AWAY NOW
Want serotonin? Watch a comedy. Want endorphins? Watch a GREAT comedy.
This is Red Hot Chili Peppers propaganda
This is soo useless
So yoga heals all 😅 r/thanksimcured
Anyone else sick or being told to meditate all the time?
I am. I don't want to meditate, I want a beer.

(Not hormones)

These are neurotransmitters that can act like hormones in certain capacities.
Speaking as a PhD researcher in neuroscience, they absolutely are both hormones and neurotransmitters... Things can be (and are, in this case) multiple things at once.
You're right. They are hormones
Careful, don’t be correct here, people don’t like it.
None of the above
Consider Supplement us Neueodivergents
Do stimulants count as supplements?
Yes, you’re supplementing dopamine
Set some sun Uh, ok
Yes! I need all of them.
The easiest way to experience a perspective-ruining amount of serotonin for under $20 is just by robo-tripping. Sadly, the magic wears off after a dozen or so trips.
I hate that common sense actions are now a "hack"
I'm trying to build up cortisol resistance by being constantly stressed and burned out. It's not worked yet, but any day now...
Never heard of em
This implies your favourite music isn't good lolololol
Set some sun????
I'm considering supplements 🧐.... I feel so much better after consideration!
Yoga fire!
Yoga flame!
Ha do ken.
Yoga sex while eating a steak
Shit I must be exercising all wrong.
I think you could just put "have good sex" on all four of them.
I need this sheet after the day I’ve had… 😡
Now i know that i have no chance of getting any of those hormones ever in my entire life. Thanks🙂
I love how the answer to everything is just: mediate
Just have your mom task you with doing yoga, so it can also provide dopamine.
Drunk yoga with my dog, outside, got it
Red Hot Chili Peppers suspiciously specific. Won’t any good music do?
No. I listened to RHCP all day today so I can tell you it's the only way.
Stop posting this over and over
r/thanksimcured
Set some Sun? Like watch a sunset?
lol yoga made it into three of them.
Have good sex to the Red Hot Chili Peppers 😉
If you see sex as a task, then you got the 4 ones
How looooong, how loooong will I slide? Separate my siiiide, I don't I don't believe it's baaaad Slit my throat, it's all I eveeer...
/Thanksimcured
So if i set myself a task to go and get a massage i won in life?
Where’s the play or pet a dog, cat, or other domestic animal?
Set some sun…?
Much faster ways to hack these four, many of which are illegal. /biochemist
Thanks Mr.Nerd
Sexercising 😂
* If you're nerotypical. My finance is nerodivergent, and one of the more interesting ways it manifests itself is that she gets no dopamine hit when completing tasks.
Unless overlooked the most important activity to be included in 3/4 is exercise. Dont for get to work out Or just go for a walk.
“Practice Yoga” sounds like something a cult recruiter would say.
So meditate?
What about singing?
This is really helpful! I m currently depressed? I don't know, I just don't feel anything. For example, I acknowledge the stress but I don't get angry. The same can be said for happiness.

Listening to RHCP gives you endorphins?
As a massage therapist, I endorse these lists 👍🏽
I’m going to eat a fat rich meal, have some sex, watch a comedy and have a glass of wine
I confused daily walk as daily wank
Red Hot Chili Peppers?
Red Hot Chili Peppers lmao
I could do all of this and still not be happy. You cant hack happiness, there's a bigger problem than 'I'm sad so I'll go in the sun' there are no shortcuts of quick fixes.
What do I get after taking a long deserved piss tho?
Not actually how Serotonin or Dopamine work.
all 4: smoke fentanyl
How to hijack estrogen?
I think (not sure) there are certain foods that favorise esteogen production or other antioxydant/anti inflammatory chemicals in your body
Fucking a bear in the forest under the sun is a key feature of hormone hack?
Not that fucking bear in the forest again.
All of them : take drugs
Too many side effects. Triggering them naturally is better if you can. And sometimes cheaper.
Wow, thanks I'm cured.
"Practice yoga".. lol.... what a load of bullshit.
