I ran out last weekend at the beach, the next few days I felt kind of not a peppy as before.
Like with IS I would be talking up a storm when sitting around a few friends, when I had absolutely none on I was kind of more to myself and was just kinda thinking to myself.
You bring up a very interesting point that I was kind of wondering about as I read through the journals and threads here (so much reading!! ) I wonder if its possible to become dependent on pheromones for the effect it has not only on others, but also on ourselves. I definitely noticed that IS helped me feel even more peppy and energetic, and can imagine on a slow day that is what I will turn to for a pick me up…but is that in any way a bad thing? Like especially to be without, and in a situation you know would have turned out differently had you had the mones like you did today… I wonder…!!!
I don’t think its really a bad thing. But honestly I would love to be smelling some IS right now. I just don’t have all the energy and stuff when I’m alone, doing pretty much nothing. With friends it’s all normal, fun/talkative time.
I’m not sure about physically dependent, I haven’t read any studies on that, but I can say from experience I go thru psychological dependence esp. with having A314…if I could just get one mone I’d get A314…when I don’t have it I feel like I needs me a fix!!!..I’m phening!!!
Phening…hehe!! Well, it definitely seems to me of all the things to turn to, this is a really good way to go. Chocolate is my feel good vice..and donoughts. Everyone knows when Im having a bad day when then ask me what Im up to and I say “Im buying a doughnut!” lol Better this before all those sweets and chocolates catch up to me!!!
