Huh, read somewhere that binge-watching can mess with your dopamine. You hit a milestone and your brain's like "okay, now what?

@brookethomas I'm not totally sure it's that serious. Your brain adapts to whatever you do a lot, so binging a show for a weekend probably isn't rewiring your whole system. People have been doing marathon movie nights and reading series for decades without calling it a dopamine crisis. It's more about how you feel after, not some chemical timer going off.
