Wow so really using certain medications to flood the brain is like using a bazooka vs how dopamine is meant to be more precisely distributed.

We don't have many legitimate medications that would do what you're saying.

Exactly! People will look back at us akin to how we look at people who were given cocaine for a sore throat years ago

Please share with the class what medication you're vaguely alluding to

Probably amphetamines, people love to shit on amphetamines when it comes to their use in treatment of ADHD. Most of that criticism comes from a fundamental misunderstanding of both chemistry and biology.

Agreed. It's eugenics when you hammer down into it.
