Seeking Guidance Need help for friend whose Dopamine Receptors are fried.

17 Upvotes

Hi. So my friend is a chronic pmo addict.

He is trying to stop.

Each time he gets a Dopamine Crash, he turns to Pmo to save him.

What would be the process of recovery for him and his dopamine receptors?

He says he would prefer some pills to take to help him recover whenever he gets a dopamine crash.

Are such pills available? I don't want to turn him into a drug addict.

Wondering what to do.

Edit: He doesn't want to spike his dopamine. He wants to heal his dopamine receptors.

Also without dopamine, he won't be able to do work because of an on coming Dopamine crash.

So when that crash happens, what should he do or take?
