> i've noticed when i go days without sleep, im much more alert, but irrtibile......there's more dopamine that's in the synapse but it's not euphoric at all....
Does sleep deprivation cause increased available dopamine? I associate dopamine with feeling good. When I go without sleep it usually triggers a very dysphoric state.
