Doapmine super sensitise

I need to talk to my doctor im scared i have this, a result of antipsycotics. If you dont have it then i can tell you literraly can not stop what it pushes you to do. Its intense and extreme, but it is a blessing also because dopamine is associated with pleasure despite the nonsense some might spew.

I cant tell my parents i might hav this. They wont understand they paid for my treatment.

I think the theory is if you are on antipsychotics for years, when you come off them your brain is supersensitive to dopamine. So you could get rebound psychosis.
