Dopamine Fasting"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p>Dopamine Fasting is an evidence-based technique to manage addictive behaviors. This is primarily achieved by restricting these addictive behaviors to specific periods of time while practicing fasting from impulsively engaging in them. The objective is to regain behavioral flexibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dopamine fast is a method, based on cognitive behavioral therapy. It\u2019s an attempt to make ourselves impervious to a host of unhealthy stimuli \u2014 the texts, the notifications, the ringtones, the pings, \u2014 often considered an integral part of modern tech-driven society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead of automatically responding to these reward-inducing cues, which provide us with an immediate but short-lived dopamine boost, we ought to allow our brains to take breaks so that they could reset themselves from the potentially addictive bombardment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The idea is that by allowing ourselves to feel bored, or by engaging ourselves in doing simpler and more natural activities, we can reclaim some sense of control over our natural responses \u2013 which goes a long way in addressing our compulsive behaviors that may be interfering with our happiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, there has been a lot of media misgivings surrounding dopamine fasting, so let&#8217;s start with what it ISN&#8217;T.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Let\u2019s Understand what Dopamine Fasting IS NOT:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>\u00a0About reducing the level of dopamine in your body (rather the focus is on reducing impulsive behavior)<\/li><li>\u00a0About eradicating every possible stimulation from your daily life (rather it focuses only on specific behaviors that may be problematic for you)<\/li><li>\u00a0About avoiding talking\/socializing\/exercising (actually it encourages values-aligned healthy behaviors)<\/li><li>\u00a0About taking tech vacation (because people treat vacations as times to indulge even more in bad habits)<\/li><li>\u00a0About rebranding meditation or asceticism (because it doesn&#8217;t involve meditating or not working)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>So, what&#8217;s the Actual Science behind Dopamine Fasting?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before diving into the science, let&#8217;s first understand how impulsive behaviors become problematic or addictive. At the bottom of every problematic behavior is what is known as &#8220;classical conditioning&#8221; in behaviorism. It\u2019s a process that helps us build conditioning that <strong>involves dopamine<\/strong>. To be clear, we aren\u2019t fasting from dopamine itself, but from impulsive behaviors reinforced by it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With daily repetition, a cluster of red dot notifications on your smartphone can become conditioned stimuli. As a result, we learn to anticipate a reward (the negative reinforcement of alleviating our negative emotions, or the positive reinforcement of seeing a novel thing). This &#8216;double reinforcement&#8217; can lead to impulsive\/addictive behavior since every time we feel bored, anxious, angry, or sad, we seek those things that both numb the bad feeling and replace our attention preferably with something pleasurable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How is Dopamine Fasting based on Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT)?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We can regain flexibility over any such automatic, rigid behavior by restricting the external stimuli, which is a Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT)-based technique called &#8220;<strong>stimulus control<\/strong>.&#8221; We can do this in several ways to reduce our need to rely on willpower:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1) Put the stimulus (like your phone or Xbox) away or make it harder to access.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2) Use website-blocking&nbsp;<strong>software<\/strong>&nbsp;to refrain from unintentional web surfing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to this, we can also naturally expose ourselves to internal stimuli (negative emotions), without engaging in the conditioned response (grabbing for our phone), which is another CBT-based technique called &#8220;<strong>exposure and response prevention<\/strong>&#8220;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1) Notice when the impulses arise, and what thoughts and feelings you&#8217;re experiencing at that moment. Bring more awareness into the act of observing your feelings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2) Watch your strong desire to engage in the conditioned response come and go without giving into it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3) Repeatedly returning to whatever you might be doing instead of getting sucked into the act of spontaneous judgement.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over time, this weakens the \u201cclassical conditioning\u201d and ultimately restore our behavioral flexibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s the reason, universally, CBT is considered the gold standard treatment for impulse control disorders, and with behaviors that are hard to correct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What\u2019s Wrong with \u201cDopamine Binges\u201d?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The point of dopamine fasting is not to encourage or glorify ascetism. There is no denying that fun, enjoyment, and aesthetic appreciation are an important part of life (though most of us could use less flattering social media and more fulfilling sex, which would honestly make us a lot happier).\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Hormesis<\/strong> is a concept from toxicology where taking a substance in low doses may make us less susceptible\/resilient to it over time. For example, being exposed to an allergen as a child may actually make you less allergic later in life. Similarly, it&#8217;s reasonable to have responsible \u201cdopamine binges\u201d once in a blue moon (obviously in a way that doesn\u2019t incur long-term health or relationships, issues). That helps reinforce the lesson that these behaviors aren\u2019t inherently problematic, but\u00a0<strong>it\u2019s the habit that\u2019s the issue<\/strong>. So, practice flexibility regarding fasting itself in order to reset from resetting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How to schedule Dopamine Fasting?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What makes Dopamine Fasting unique are the time blocks, which recommend fasting for gradually longer periods of time periodically to extend the benefits. Here&#8217;s how to schedule it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The FASTING Schedule (when you DON&#8217;T wish to engage)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If it&#8217;s easier to start by dopamine fasting for 1 hour a day (vs. 4 hours a day), then go for it, and then try to ramp up to what you&#8217;re willing to do and sustain long-term (e.g., 2 hours\/day). Remember, perfect is the enemy of the good, so stop chasing perfection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The FEASTING Schedule (when you DO wish to engage)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can allow yourself to engage in the addictive behavior for 5-20 minutes, 1-3 times a day. One easy way of doing this is to use a timer and allow yourself to check your phone for notifications and other communications right after mealtimes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What Makes Dopamine Fasting Distinct?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have zero bad habits that need correction, then I guess, you don&#8217;t need to undergo this fasting. However, if you find that a particular behavior is causing you some trouble, like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>&nbsp;Distress (you&#8217;re bothered by how much you do it)<\/li><li>&nbsp;Addictiveness (you want to cut down, but unable to stick with it)<\/li><li>&nbsp;Lower productivity (interferes with your optimal social or school\/work performance)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Then you may want to target that troublesome behavior by deploying dopamine fasting. The antiquated versions of \u201cdopamine fasting\u201d that say absolutely no digital devices are perhaps missing the point. For example, browsing through various articles on your phone can definitely be addictive, whereas reading a single book on a Kindle Paperwhite device (which has no options for distraction) is probably fine. Therefore, while deciding what to fast from, you need to be sure whether it\u2019s a pleasurable or problematic experience for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What if you can\u2019t Resist all the temptations!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you can&#8217;t fit your work\/pleasure into your daily schedule, I\u2019d argue that you are not very good at managing your time &amp; energy. Learn to follow the 80\/20 rule of figuring out what 20% of your behaviors are getting 80% of your results in order to figure out what to eliminate or delegate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What Should You Do Instead?<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You don&#8217;t need to \u201cdo nothing\u201d or meditate during dopamine fast (unless you\u2019d like to). Just engage in regular activities that reflect your values:\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Health-Promoting (exercise, cooking)\u00a0<\/li><li>Compassionate Work (helping, serving others)<\/li><li>Relating (talking, bonding over activities)<\/li><li>Learning (reading, listening)<\/li><li>Creating (writing, art)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Forcing yourself to engage in \u201ctime-restricted pleasure\u201d makes you procrastinate less and better manage your time and energy because you have to be efficient within that window.<\/p>\n<span
