COVID kills joy in people; scientists have discovered a new long-term consequence—the virus literally burns out dopamine receptors.
It affects the part of the brain responsible for motivation, happiness, and memory, and the sicker a person is, the worse the consequences.
@yogthos despite my fright, I’m glad you shared.
@yogthos FFFFFFFFFF
@yogthos @Tattooed_Mummy I think it’s more likely to be the unrelenting torrent of shit that has been the world since 2020 but I’m not ruling anything out. 😒
@yogthos terrible study I’m afraid.
Small sample size just for starters, but then where’s the pre-covid control or information? And the attempts at correlation? Sorry, hard pass on this one.
@yogthos Once again: Welcome to ADHD-land, folks.
@yogthos with the increase in violence on planes, which seemed to spike during and after Covid, I’ve wondered for several years if there is from Covid neurologically. I’m sure a percentage of those who have been arrested get off the plane, puzzled, wondering why they did what they did.
@yogthos anyone got a link to a version of this article that doesn't obscure it behind a popup asking me to consent to them selling my information?
@yogthos Free ADHD for everyone! 🥲
@yogthos I was hard to motivate decades before covid.
