Day 4:
Ive been feeling much more motivated, and concentrated on doing things that benefit me instead of just sitting around watching tv etc. Especially when it comes to changing my environment/ preparing myself for the future, and overall preventing myself from beginning the endless cycle of "brain-dead" activities. Im extremely upset that I wont allow myself to purchase and play Fallout 4, even though I just recently fixed my gaming computer (for work and study purposes), but Im happy that the conflicting emotions are now fading away. I can play some videogames if i'm interested once i'm successful. Maybe.

Now. Down to the latest research interest. Cortical arousal.
Ive been thinking after spending a good amount of time looking into this topic, that if one were to induce high amounts of cortical arousal, then the baseline of ones brain would become low cortical arousal, and vice versa. Naturally however, people are drawn to drugs that do the opposite for them. Introverts seek downers to lower cortical arousal, but in return, when off the drug, it causes ones cortical arousal to go even higher up.
Im thinking of it kind of akin to how when one abuses a substance, and then it down regulates receptors.
